Hate: What causes it to be okay?

Better yet, this thread is going to be locked for 24 hours. I'd expect children to behave in this manner. Very disappointing.

You two need to sort out your differences and then come back to discuss this topic in an intelligible manner. I'm done fucking around and playing footsy with members who do not want to obey the Symposium rules.

What causes hate to be OK? People who refuse to take religious texts as a whole, switching to different sections depending on what they want to say.
 
Someone sat down and took apart someone's technology making project piece by piece and threw it at them today at school - so therefore the guy who's project it was hates the other guy. Isn't it right for him to hate him?

But then hating someone because they don't act the same way you do isn't right IMO... Like... hating someone because they like boys more than girls, or hating someone because they don't like tacos. It just seems like "hate for the sake of hate"..
 
Nothing causes hate to be okay. Hate is not okay. But people have it in their hearts, for whatever reason. Jealousy, anger, greed. Those are all good starting points to breed hate in your heart. And once it's there, it's hard to get it out. Hate will always exist. I don't think by discussing it we would change anything.

California is number one?

It's because of all the Mexicans....People in California hate Mexicans because they supposedly take jobs that they could have when they aren't even legal...or some other such retardedness...
 
Interesting that the states with the most immigration are the ones with the most hate organizations. (California, Texas and Florida).
 
Hatred has always a cause.
"Immigration costs Sweden at least 40 to 50 billion Swedish kroner every year, probably several hundred billions, and has greatly contributed to bringing the Swedish welfare state to the brink of bankruptcy. An estimated cost of immigration of 225 billion Swedish kroner in 2004, which is not unlikely, would equal 17.5% of Sweden's tax income that year, a heavy burden in a country which already has some of the highest levels of taxation in the world."

a list of hate groups and their locations all over the country. you can even look up hate sepcific crimes by state by year.

Wow neo-nazis are pretty popular in my area, 6 neo-nazi groups, and one Christian Identity are the only hate groups relatively close to where I live. That's pretty awesome, apparently Seattle's a hive for hitler's teaching. I know I have a translated copy of Mein Kampf sitting on my bedside table (and the funny thing is, I do! Haven't read much of it though...)
 
I got a copy of Mein Kampf as well, pretty interesting book actually...
Although I feel talking about it might be controversial and wont help the topic.
Back to the topic, hatred it's deeply rooted in our civilization, although we may disagree with it, we cannot avoid it, it is very present in our lives,
Can we say we do not hate? Not really, we constantly hate, because our differences, since it is easier to hate than to understand someone's vision or point of view, or culture, religion, etc.
 
You want the answer? Why not search the net first?:)

Wikipedia's Hate:
Hatred is an emotion of intense revulsion, distaste, enmity, or antipathy for a person, thing, or phenomenon, generally attributed to a desire to avoid, restrict, remove, or destroy the hated object. Hatred is also among the most common emotions that humans experience. It can be based on fear of an object or past negative consequences of dealing with that object. Hatred is often described as the opposite of love or friendship; others, such as Elie Wiesel, consider the opposite of love to be indifference. People may feel conflicting and complicated emotions or thoughts involving hate, as in a love-hate relationship.

Often the verb "to hate" is used casually to describe things one merely dislikes, such as a particular style of architecture, a certain climate, one's job, some particular food, or people who claim to hate something when they in fact merely dislike it.

"Hatred" is also used to describe feelings of prejudice, bigotry or condemnation (see shunning) against a person, or a group of people, such as racism, and intense religious or political prejudice. The term hate crime is used to designate crimes committed out of hatred in this sense.

According to evolutionary psychologists, hate is a rational reaction to people whose interests consistently conflict with one's own. Hate is an emotion, hence it serves the protective mode of a person. People whose behavior threatens one's own survival interests are to be hated, while people whose behavior enhances one's survival prospects are to be liked or even loved (as in the case of offspring and other genetic kin).

The passions of hate arise from several features of our thinking process. These include wanting to assign blame to others for our misfortune, protecting our self-esteem, a desire to strengthen our community, alleviating our fears (by destroying the evil others), and several types of errors in reasoning, including cognitive bias. The ability to quickly separate friend from foe is essential to self-defense and safety and provides the origins of hate .

Also, the feelings of hate can arise unexpectedly. If one has experienced maltreatment in the past, it is proven that one is more likely to maltreat and learn to dislike or "hate" people before they get to know the person. This is shown clearly in the pattern of people who are abused, ignored, neglected, or maltreated by their parents, and those children's tendency to become abusive or angry.

From wikipedia.


Hate is natural and very hard to prevent.
I grew up with our parents teaching us christian beliefs constantly.
I know that hating others is bad but, its just almost impossible to
prevent it from happening. Until one person can tilt this topic to one direction and makes it agreeable with everyone. I think this topic will go on forever.:D
