仇恨犯罪法通过扩大警察和检察权强化了新自由主义，增加了被监禁人口的迅速增加。此外，仇恨犯罪话语将反酷儿暴力与“陌生人危险”的概念联系起来，从而再现了有问题的种族和社会阶级政治，其中一个无辜的、隐含的中产阶级的人突然和随机地受到一个仇恨的、隐含的低收入的人的攻击。因此，作者认为，酷儿和跨部门的抵抗应该拒绝仇恨犯罪的话语，而是把重点放在边缘化的女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋和变性人（LGBT）的经验。通过这样做，有关减少反酷儿暴力的学术和行动主义可以使广泛的LGBT人群受益，而不会加剧基于种族和社会阶层的不平等。
Hate crime laws have reinforced neoliberalism by expanding police and prosecutorial power, adding to the rapid expansion of incarcerated populations. Further, hate crime discourse associates anti-queer violence with notions of “stranger danger,” and thereby reproduces problematic race and social class politics in which an innocent, implicitly middle-class, person is suddenly and randomly attacked by a hateful, implicitly low-income, person. Thus, the author argues that queer and intersectional resistance should reject hate crime discourse and, instead, focus on the experiences of marginalized lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people. By doing so, scholarship and activism concerned with reducing anti-queer violence can benefit a wide range of LGBT people without reinforcing inequalities based on race and social class.
