No, the majority of people understand hate is bad. It's an innate understanding, not a taught thing. Everyone understands that the experience of hate is bad because, as you said, everyone goes through it. People go back to it because disgust and anger are addictive. The stories they tell afterwards are the rationalizations of an addict.

It seems like you really intensely agree with me on the experiencing-hate-as-truth thing. So I will just leave that there.

You hate those groups you are assigning me to, or else you wouldn't be using them as an insult. Like you said, you don't know me. Your insults reveal only information about you.

I mean this in the nicest, most sincere way possible. I don't know you, but I've met you a thousand times. As a middle-aged white guy, I was also a young white guy on the internet.

I encourage you to broaden your horizons. Get off the internet and read some long-form books. Your position isn't profound or even interesting. Your basic assumptions are wrong and no matter what flowery language you use to dress it up, it's still a silly juvenile argument.

After I go outside and read "long-form books" (lol), I'm supposed to then understand that hate is the truth? You've fumed impotently like this at a thousand people before? This is the most ridiculous thread.
