In pro-Bolsonaro conservative times, social minorities have been targeted by assaults of different orders, being seen as killable bodies, symbolically or not. From this scenario, the aim of this article is to understand to what extent there is a network of complicity that foments the manifestation of LGBTphobic hate crimes in Brazilian political contemporaneity. To situate the phenomenon theoretically and methodologically, we trigger the concept of necropolitics, a policy of death that decides who has the right to kill and to live. We also propose the expansion of the concept of hate crime, understanding how death can be manifested beyond itself, as in the control of subjectivities.
