    In a new study, sociologists Aaron Panofsky and Joan Donovan examined years’ worth of posts on Stormfront to see how members dealt with the news. It’s striking, they say, that white nationalists would post these results online at all.

    I think this is a sign that people go to these communities looking for validation. You'd think someone would want to hide this kind of information and consider it a deep, dark secret. Instead they go online looking for others to tell them it's alright, that they're still part of the exclusive club. The fact that they're getting that validation is what makes these groups so attractive.
