The “other” has always been seen as the embodiment of bacteria, viruses and filth. The spread of corresponding hateful images and discourse has increased during the Covid-19 pandemic. It cannot be understood in isolation from digital media. In the hateful discourses, what are the familiar continuities? What elements are new? What special role do social media and digital platforms play here?
