Hate crime is Thought crime.
The corollary would assume that a robber, rapist, murderer, thug otherwise commits love crime or are entirely indifferent.
So to prove innocence of a Hate crime/Thought crime, a criminal must demonstrate beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were at least ambivalent toward the person that they committed the crime against.
It's like nailing Jell-O to the wall, an empirically absurd exercise.

We are all hate criminals now.

One gets rid of hate crimes via 'Jury nullification' which requires getting someone on the jury with a bit of common sense.
