I don't have enemies... except for onion farmers, of course.

Hate only hurts you, unless you act on it, then it can hurt others.
But ultimately it's coming from you and you only. Blaming others for feeling hateful is not taking responsibility.

Hate is an incredible waste of energy. That, and it's toxic. Hate is ugly, and nothing I wish to entertain *even if I had time to do so.*
I agree to a certain extent.It is not a waste if channeled and burned properly, instead of bottled internally.
Hate is not just a concept. Hate is also an emotion. Emotions can be toxic.A concept cannot be toxic, BDBoop.
It's ugly because it shows a lack of understanding and create even more negativity than there already is.Hate is not exclusively ugly. Do you hate your flaws? Do you hate murderers and rapists? Do you hate your father?
Not all hate is ugly.
Why would it be wrong to hate evil?
Hate is not exclusively ugly.
Do you hate your flaws?
Do you hate murderers and rapists?
Do you hate your father?
Not all hate is ugly.
They create their own objectivity

What the hell is this?

Yes it is.
I understand my flaws; hate is based in ignorance.
No. I hate murder and rape.
What the hell is this?
Yes it is.
"Their own objectivity" is called "subjectivity".
Yes. All hate is ugly, and no. I don't hate. Not hating is as much a part of me as having blue/green eyes and being left-handed. My closest sister has trouble understanding why I forgive so easily and give second chances so often. Personally, I consider it a blessing. I have seen the damage that hating does from a first-hand perspective.
That was Wake, trying to help me reach his conclusion.

"Emotions are subjective"
Just because you feel them individually does not make them subject to your interpretation. My saddness feels good! Saddness is good! It's subjective!
"Good" "hate".
This thread is stupid. I'm out.
It ends at the point where the destruction hate does to the individual overpowers its positive utility.Where does that extent end, theplaydrive?
None of this changes the fact that hate is an emotion and emotions can be toxic. I'm just correcting your assertion that hate can't be toxic since it's a concept.Emotions are subjective. Perceptions are various. One can say hate is like a purifying flame; one that burns away internal flaws. "Good" "hate".
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you deny that hate creates negativity and that hatred is based in ignorance?And your understanding is absolute, theplaydrive?
Hating evil or sin is a good thing, and I may have taken the question wrong because so many people who post here are always accusing others hating other people or being hateful Racists.
I hope I have made it clear in my posts that it's okay to hate sin but not the sinners.

Emotions cannot be toxic. Toxic implies poison. What is the poison? Can I objectively view it?
Hate IS the poison, just like fear. This might help.

We do not like subjectivity. You do not like subjectivity.
I do not care for the subjectivity of the mouth in your link.
I can say anger is poison. I can say all love is good. I can say homosexuality is poison. There are many subjective things people say.
I never said that it did, Wake.It does not always overpower its positive utility, theplaydrive.
Look up the definition of figurative and apply it.Emotions cannot be toxic. Toxic implies poison. What is the poison? Can I objectively view it?
So when terrorists hate the united states, their hate does not create negativity? When person X hates person Y, their hate based treatment of person Y doesn't create negativity?Hate does not create negativity. Negativity reacts to hate, as mosquitos to a zapper. Ignorance implies one neither knows nor understands.
I disagree. One can know and understand and hate only if one rejects that knowledge and understanding. If you accept what you know and understand, you don't hate. For example, I hate a sociopathic murderer when I reject the knowledge that he doesn't make decisions like me. I don't hate him when I accept that knowledge.One can know and understand... and hate.
