      Thing is, it doesn't even need to be all that widespread; once you've got a not-insignificant amount of armed Nazis, as Ukraine absolutely does, it turns out it's really hard to get rid of them. Political power grows from the barrel of a gun, or so I'm told, and you can make a surprising amount of demands, or make claims without any higher authority's permission once you have a pack of violent, well-armed brownshirts at your disposal. Even if they never accede to a significant place of state power, they absolutely have the ability to terrorize their local area, and it will turn out the central government's own mechanism for the enforecement of its authority (ie the cops) will pretty much stand aside, out of sympathy or cowardice.
