Experts say the white supremacist Hundred-Handers group comprises of low-tech people, loosely organised, anonymous, impersonal and un-human in many ways
after white supremacist stickers were found plastered all across the city of Troy, containing slogans like “multiculturalism kills” and “You are white. Strike back.”they would be using coronavirus to exploit people’s fears, in an attempt to gain more recruits to spread their hate. With recent stickers linking Covid-19 with migration found in cities including York, Leeds and Hull, in addition to Sheffield, Hundred-Handers seem to be in action as per their prior plans.
The far-right group has been defacing public properties with racial, xenophobic and Islamophobic slurs for quite a while. Immigrant communities in the UK have been living in increasingly more hostile conditions since the Brexit referendum; this has of course changed for now but whether this will effect a lasting and deeper cultural change remains to be seen. I am pessimistic; once some form of normality returns, the effects of the new harsh economic crisis will most likely force people to revert to a more competitive spirit.
