Define vulnerability of a victim. I am pretty damn sure you will regard any straight white man as not being within any of your perceived victims group. If you just said yes to that then you are in fact a bigot, racist and heterophobe. Congratulations, you may have broken a law for thinking and saying a word.

Yes, because it is entirely predicated on a racist hatred of white people, by other ethnic groups and races. The entire law being discussed here is legalised racism against white people.
I don't want laws to protect someone saying aa racist thing to me, and anyoe should be able likewise say a "racist" thing.
In fact the whole basis for this legislation is anti-white, anti-heterosexual, and anti-male.
