what is hate?

Answer 1

Hate or hatred is an emotion of intense revulsion, distaste, enmity, or antipathy for a person, thing, or phenomenon. It is generally attributed to cause a desire to avoid, restrict, remove, or destroy the hated object. The emotion is the opposite of love.

Hatred can be based on fear of its object, or past negative consequences of dealing with that object. Hatred is often described as the opposite of love or friendship; others, such as Elie Wiesel, consider the opposite of love to be indifference. People may feel conflicting and complicated emotions or thoughts involving hate, such as love-hate relationship.

Often "hate" is used casually to describe things one merely dislikes, such as a particular style of architecture, a certain climate, one's job, or some particular food.

"Hate" or "hatred" is also used to describe feelings of prejudice, bigotry or condemnation (see shunning) against a person, or a group of people, such as racism, and intense religious or political prejudice. The term hate crime is used to designate crimes committed out of hatred in this sense.

Hate is often a precursor to violence. A populace is sometimes trained via political propaganda to hate some nation or political regime. Hatred remains a major motive behind armed conflicts such as war and terrorism.

Answer 3

Contrary to popular belief, hate is NOT the opposite of love. The opposite of love is indifference. The reason is, because when you hate someone or something, you are still connected to that particular person or thing (meaning that ou are still somehow interested in it, whether it be for vengeance or spite). However, when you are indifferent to something, you share no connection, because you don't care what happens to that person or thing. That is why hate is not the opposite of love.

Hate, is a strong dislike... it can become so strong, that it can incite one to take action and hurt or damage that which is hated. However, action does not need to take place... just the desire of taking strong action constitutes hate as well.

Hate is what you dont accept in yourself, so when you spot it in others you start hating them though you are actually hating the same trait in you.
