Hate

Hate is a concept that is generally misunderstood. It is commonly believed to simply be an intense combination of anger and dislike, however, this is incorrect, because hate has little to do with actual dislike.

Hate is born of lack of understanding and fear, which leads to aversion to the subject of the hatred, but not dislike of the subject.

In order to dislike something, one must understand it, and so it is impossible to both hate and dislike something.

For instance, a redneck who's never read a book can correctly say "I hate Muslims," because that poor redneck has no idea what Muslims are actually about, but has heard that they do bad things. This redneck therefore fears the Muslims and does not understand the muslims, leading to hatred of said Muslims.

INCORRECT: I have tried cauliflower, and judging by it's flavor and texture, I have come to the conclusion that I hate cauliflower.
(In actuality, this person simply dislikes cauliflower.)

CORRECT: I have never tried cauliflower, but because of a video on youtube telling me that cauliflower kills people, I have come to the conclusion that I hate cauliflower.
(This person truly hates cauliflower because he/she misunderstands and fears cauliflower.)
