More than anything I wish I could change the way people hate each other. No I'm not some hippie activist or some Miss America entrant who wishes for world peace. But, damn it, I don't really see what the point of it all is.
I've posted before that prejudice = ignorance. I feel the same way about hate. I can't even comprehend why people would teach their children that it's ok to hate against others, for whatever reason. You can't justify it to me and you will never convince me that it's harmless or "just how they were brought up".
What right do we have to pass judgement onto others? If you stood next to this person in an empty room with no one else around, what part of you says you are the better person and deserve to hate against this person? Even if you'd never met them before? Probably based on something you heard from where ever?
Your thoughts and opinions are no the only ones on Earth. There are billions of people on this planet, so why does that make you better than me, or anyone else?
Get over yourself and learn to at least get along. Hate only breeds more hate, and hate leads to something even worse.
