The real hate crimes hoax isn’t a Muslim woman claiming Trump supporters battered her in a subway while onlookers did nothing.
The real hoax isn’t a biracial couple or a lesbian couple scrawling slurs on their own garage door (it’s always the garage door) and accusing their neighbors of the crime.
The hoax goes far deeper than that. The real hate crimes hoax is the hate crimes movement itself.
Hate crime laws were never intended to expose and punish hatred “wherever it occurs.” From the outset, hate crimes laws were intended to be enforced only selectively. The real goal of the hate crimes movement was and still is to curate an ugly myth – a fictional vision of America where minorities are hunted and victimized by white people.
