It's terrible these hate crimes (as America calls them, to punish people harder for) are going on still, because we got past all that didn't we? But then the foul right wing started re-emerging everywhere, and hate is how those folks bond.

It's very sad that people are so choked on hate.
But I'm not sure it's got anything to do with the growth of the far right (which in Britain at least is a tiny minority of people though I appreciate in some other countries it has got more support.)
Unfortunately some people are so rigid and bigoted in their thinking that anything that deviates from their own view of the world leads them to hate those who won't agree with them either in attitudes or behaviour.
Frankly in Britain this problem cuts across political and religious divides with the left as guilty as the right (perhaps less so of homophobia but certainly of racism and authoritarianism.)
