A LONER who was bullied at school posted vile racist hate online and downloaded two terrorist documents.
Extremist Mason Yates, from Cheshire, described himself as a 'literal Nazi!
He was first referred to the government's counter-extremism Prevent strategy when he was aged just 13. Now Yates, 19, has been jailed for 30 months.
Police found copies of '100 Deadly Skills, which provides instructions on knife attacks and making explosive devices and the 'White Resistance Manual, giving directions on how to carry out 'mass murder' in advance of a 'race war, on his phone.
Yates developed an 'unsavoury obsession' with right-wing politics, Manchester Crown Court heard.
His lawyer said Yates, who also displayed an interest in the murderer behind mass shootings at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, spent hours on his computer and became 'even more isolated' during the pandemic.
Yates' vile posts on the Telegram were app revealed after undercover police posed as an extremist.
Yates, then 17, was part of a Telegram channel featuring a network of like-minded young people with hateful views.
On Snapchat, he said he was trying to convert someone to 'hate ni*** gays and Muslims.
In a voice note on Telegram he said the 'real problem' was with Jews and said the British Army is 'full of ni* *, gays and females who fight for the Jew.
