  • Does it solve it? Or does it just shove it away until it pops up again?

    Hate doesn’t look for solutions, it just seeks to remove something detesteble. A revolution fueled by hate toppled a regime… just for something else, often much worse, to take its place.

    Hate is great and continual, persistent determination of a singular goal… not for effective progress.

    You attribute far too much to a simple, inefficient, emotion.

    Compassion, empathy, desire to do good creates positive change. All hate does is perpetuate a cycle of fear and violence. It can seem like a positive in the short term, but it never lasts.

    It’s also contingent on them realizing that if they call out all the abuses and corruption, when it comes time for them to be held to account, they won’t see any more mercy than they show their “compatriots” across the aisle.

    Less so, often, as the “team” they play for tends to forgive and forget much less.
