First Soti, you should be careful. Look what happened in South Africa.

Second, I love everyone unconditionally and the people who I "hate" I hate for their policies and their behaviors, not for them being humans.

I have a long list of politicians who I disagree with their policies, on every continent, but if they weren't politicians I wouldn't hate them.

Hating people is a waste of time and energy, it tears you up inside to the point of self-destructiveness.

Many things happen there on a daily basis. Many inconsequential things.
I know. I spent a month there.
Now what precisely are you referring to?

Loving people is also a waste of time and energy. It will drown you in a very similar way, and leave you hollow and self-defeated.

I make enemies of concepts, and remain indifferent to the victims of those concepts.

When I was a teenager I thought I hated almost everyone. I didnt - it was more like dislike. Real hate is as consuming as obsessive love - you think about the person you hate all the time, feel constantly angry against them, imagine hurting them or killing them. The only person I have really hated is someone that I loved previously - for some reason this person evokes strong emotions in me, and after she hurt me badly, the love I felt turned to hate. In loving her I had constantly thought about her, tried to help her, worried about her, wanted to be with her or imagined being with her. In hating her I kept thinking about torturing her. I had to physically stop myself sometimes from going up to her and hurting her. My doctor actually put me on antipsychotics because the feeling of hate was so obsessive it was interfering with my ability to function properly. Since then 6 months have passed, and although I still feel hurt, the hate is diminishing and I realise that underneath it all I still love her, although now it has diminished to the extent I can go and live my life without her. I don't think it is possible (for me at least) to hate without love. The two emotions are so closely entwined.

Our prime minister and our minister of finance are people who i hate.
This year many taxes have been raised and new so called envirement taxes have been invented.
The scum have no morals and try to suck us dry.
I prefer the regular criminals over these politicians 8)
Other than that the minister of defence, he acts like Bush's lapdog and follows him into every war.
It would be more accurate to call the department of defence the department of offence....

Oh, I was refering to the xenophobic violence.

Now, so what Soti you're advocating misanthropy?

No, I'll only hate some of their characteristics, beliefs and/or actions. I would have to hate all of their characteristics/beliefs/actions to hate them as a person, and that hasn't happened yet.

I used to hate several people who are no longer in my life. Now, I just feel bored if I think of them.

I don't really hate anyone but it is close for my older brother, but other than him I am fine with everyone.

I regularly get annoyed by certain qualities people have, but I'm usually too nice to feel true hatred, I think.

I hate fascists, neo-Nazis and the like. Hate them. Hate them. I've reason to, actually. They were the #1 gang where I grew up, and a few years ago they tried to kill my brother.

I hate the idea of radical Islam, but from a distance.

There are a few people I know who evoke hostile loathing in me whenever they slight me or mess with me, or whenever I hear about something they said about me. It's usually only temporary... until it comes up again.

I hate people. It's harsh, but the truth. We have done so many stupid things, yet we are the most advanced species on that planet! (that we know of, anyway).
I don't hate any specific individuals.

So many I don't know where to start.

The ex-landlord who rented a house to us with stairs without a handrail that I fell down and ruined my arm so that I ended up getting a shoulder replacement yet she never even apologized and won't let her insurance company give me a penny...

A boss I worked for for 6 weeks while I was getting said shoulder replacement who moved my desk 7 times in the 6 weeks I worked there and docked my pay for going to the doctor when I was in fact at work...

The guy who ran into my father when he was driving a motorbike and killed him...

The boss I was working for when my father was killed who docked my pay for the three days I spent going to see him on his deathbed...

The ex-husband who did so many things to me and our kids that I wouldn't know where to begin...

His wife who is a lawyer who represented him in court so I didn't ever get a penny of child support...

That's just the last 3 years.

I don't hate anyone.

The opposite of love is not hate but indifference.

There's this immature woman named Candace who goes to my clubhouse. She's rude, loud and obnoxious. She talks at the top of her lungs, uses words like spastic, and ret*d, she puts on those mongoloid acts and makes herself sound ret*d. She whines, she hollers, she's sarcastic and whoever thinks that she's sweet and caring, must be on drugs. I'd like to see her dead. I'd celebrate if she was to die, very soon. I'd make a T-Shirt that would say..."This Autistic Member Is Now at Peace."

Of course there are people that I hate. There's me for a start. Though whether I qualify as a person, well that's another story. Who else is there....hmm...all the people who have tried to teach me in the past, I sure as hell didn't sign up to that. All the people who think placing hundreds of 30mph signs on a 50ft stretch of road is a good idea. I'm not blind, I saw the first f**king sign, the reason I'm not slowing down is becuase I'm a jerk, not because I need more signs to tell me the blatantly obvious. I don't care if someone got killed here, enough is a enough, a single sign will suffice and I'm immune to your guilt trips, so all those flowers there to mourn and all those 'speed kills' signs just get me in the mood for some hit 'n' runs. Don't f**king tempt me.
I also hate anyone who looks at me. Yes, I'm a freakish oddity, now go amuse yourselve's elsewhere. :x I also hate people who offer me home insurance and mortgages, do I look like a f**king homeowner? I can barely tie my f**king shoelaces, now piss off.
I also hate people who say f**k in almost every sentence, like me in this post, it's annoying and it doesn't make you/me sound tough, so f**king quit it. Am I listening to me? :x Oh I'm really beginning to anger me now. Let's take this outside. *punches self in the gut*

I used to never hate ppl. I was always under the impression that if someone was horrible to me, or did horrible things that they could not help it, and so I would forgive them. But then I actually got to know ppl. BIG mistake. There are now two people that I truly hate, and there's no way I can get away from them, as they are constantly around me, trying to be fake-nice and "friendly". They know I don't like them, and they probably don't particularly like me, so I don't understand this.

So yes, I do hate ppl. These ppl have wronged me on so many levels, and didn't do them by accident, it wasn't just the way they were. They are arrogant, narrow-minded, ignorant excuses for human beings.
