It isn't just risky, but I feel many times it ends up legitimizing the groups you're trying to protect others from.

Fascists don't need you to justify their fascism.

I tend to agree, but not entirely.

The point I was making here is you start sabotaging & can end up harming people that may have been allies. As they say, the road to hell is often paved with good intentions.

Second, the more you start demanding people do what you want else you'll sabotage, attack them, etc... Your ideas really aren't that much different than those of fascists either.
