Default What is hate, really

What is it?
Pardon my ignorance on this subject but it seems to be including anything related to anyone's dislike for anything.

Facebook ad boycott: Why big brands 'hit pause on hate' - CNET
https://www.cnet.com/news/facebook-a...pause-on-hate/

Why is it requesting the removal of whites dislike for blacks but not blacks dislike for whites?

I thought that this went away in 1863 and some are still bringing it up 150 years later!
I hope the Indians don't see this, they might want Manhattan back

Quite simply, actually. Anything that President Trump says or tweets is hateful. Duh.

from Urban Dict:

Quote:
hate
when you dislike someone so much that if you and the other person were in an empty room with a knife in the middle, one or both would be dead.
Quote:
Hate is the feeling that is often associated with anger, but don't confuse the two, hate and anger are two very different things.

Hate is often seen as just an extreme form of anger, which is sometimes true. People are driven to hate people due to the fact that the person(s) may anger them in some way. And that anger is taken very far, for whatever reason.

So if slavery is a form of hate when the slave owners needed slaves to perform work for them should all current CEOs be worried?

Why is it a separate and additional "hate crime" warranting harsher punishment when a white person assaults a black person, but it's not a "hate crime" when it's the other way around?

That is an example of systemic racism. It's built into the system. Here's another example. Affirmative action. It is built into the system that one race will be preferred over another. That is systemic racism. It's not the type everyone is talking about, but it's the only type that I can find that matches the definition.

I hate lots of people and things. You might say it's my hobby, especially since I retired. I have lots of time to devote to hating.

You people are lucky that nearly 50 years ago when I bought my first Corvette I decided that anyone who likes Corvettes is my friend, whether they want be or not.

Bought my first car, a '60 vette in '66......met up with an old acquaintence from HS summer screwal.....in '67, buying vette parts he drove a bastard vette between 61 and 58 it was a splice together bastard......so he was William Dean Christiansen......do a google on that name......

So Larry was another friend of his.....we broke off the friendship after a couple years....Bill was in trouble.....

MURDER.......

So Larry is a Mopar man, and I just stuck with GM, lost my vette and into Pontiacs.....

Then in '95, bought my '72 vert......it goes to my son when I kick, it's my last ride.....
