From the Dictionary of Liberal Doublespeak:
Hate: 1. Nonacceptance of liberal dogma, leading to noncompliance with liberal doctrine. 2. Believing that American government should obey the law written in the Constitution. 3. Believing that an evil white (or half white) male has a moral and legal right to defend himself when he is being assaulted violently by a minority person. 4. Believing that all members of all races should be treated equally under the law.
Hate Crime: 1. Any crime embodying hate, as defined by this dictionary. 2. Any act of self defense committed by a second class citizen, or one who is at least half second class, against a first class citizen. 3. Any crime, or anything that can in any way be misconstrued as a crime, committed by one who has committed thoughtcrime. 4. Hate crime is thoughtcrime, usually coupled together with something defined by liberal doctrine as an active crime, but the essential ingredient that defines it as hate crime is the thought it is based in.
