Hatred is Weak

Hate is weak and lazy. Hate has to do with fear and ignorance. Those who are against immigrants, the LGBTQ community, and those with physical and/or mental issues are afraid. Because of their ignorance they fear these things and it's just easier to reach out in hate rather than take the time to learn and except someone who is different. If they don't fit the criteria of "norm" then there is something wrong with them. Instead of opening their minds (and hearts) to something they don't understand they close themselves off and their egos won't let them experience change or enlightenment. Instead of learning something new and valuable, it's just easier to hate.

I think you are right. It's a great pity but that's the way it is.

I think it is fear for the most part--people can feel threatened by others who are different--All the more reason for diversity and inclusion!

You got that right. But, where Trump is concerned if you are not white and act like he is the second coming then you are on his bad list.

So glad I don't have the energy to hate nor the will.

I don't hate, I just dislike the behaviors.

Hate is easy and it is harder to love others and except them for who they are.

And do the mind work to find positive characteristics in others.
