If I wanted to troll Nazi's/White Supremacist how would I go about it? I have heard of trolling and kinda got an idea but how do I find the groups growing the hatred around the world online? (lemmy.world)

Those are sockpuppet accounts. If you look at their profile it will usually be pretty sparse and have few posts. I believe these are usually stolen accounts and the new owners clear out most of the old posts except for a few pictures. There's troll farms in se Asia that get hired by various groups and entities. It's pretty cheap because the labor is cheap or even endetured servitude.
