If not intentially a minority and I get into a fight and I did not know they were gay, palestinian, jewish, or whatever. Can I still be charged with a hate crime? Or does one have to know first?

If you get into a fight with someone and don’t know they are gay, palestinian or jewish, then it shouldn’t be possible to commit a hate crime in that scenario unless if it’s based on something else that you do know
