THE ANATOMY OF HATE (REVISED)
|
|

Seven years later.

Hate is ceteris paribus a purely destructive desire; it does not aim to gain
|
|
something, but to get rid of something. A subject which directs its
|
|
consciousness towards an object (living or dead, physical or non-physical)
|
|
in hate regards it as something which must be destroyed, no matter of the
|
|
cost.
|
|
(The notion bears a powerful quality, and is therefore often used even
|
|
though it is not apt. Statements that one "hates to mow the lawn", "hates
|
|
eggs", "hates bad weather", seldom (if ever) express a wish for the total
|
|
obliteration of that particular activity or object. The common use of "hate"
|
|
is synonymous with "annoyed". But I am here not interested in that common
|
|
use; I am interested in the true meaning of the concept.)
|
|
Hate is part pain and part pleasure. A subject in hate suffers as the
|
|
targeted object is in fact around, but feels at the same divine as hate
|
|
produces an impression of omniscience. A subject in hate believes itself to
|
|
be the supreme judge of what is good and evil. It "knows" that the object
|
|
deserves to be hated.
|
|
To be the only one who hates something is terrifying. It is a lonely
|
|
business, an internal rage which cries to get out. Since the hating subject
|
|
is fully convinced that it is justified in its beliefs of what is good and
|
|
evil, confrontation with opposing beliefs will lead to raw frustration.
|
|
Contra-arguments, no matter how sound and rational they might be, will not
|
|
be understood. A subject in hate protects itself; it is addicted to the
|
|
majestic sensation of being the ultimate judge, above all.
|
|
While individual hate is frustrating, collective hate is relieving. To
|
|
find other people which desires the destruction of the same object
|
|
strengthens the belief that the hate is justified. Individuals might be
|
|
wrong, it can be argued, but a collective is always right - simply because
|
|
it is a collective. Subjects in collective hate injects more reasons for
|
|
hate in their fellows, and are thanked with the same treatment.
|
|
But subjects in hate need not only be encouraged in their destructive
|
|
desires by equals. Empty statements - common today - like "a firm opinion is
|
|
better than no opinion", or "it is always good to believe in something", is
|
|
often misinterpreted to justify any opinion or belief.
|
|
As it is often a big gap between beliefs and motivation, and motivation
|
|
no guarantee for action, hate need not necessarily lead to practice. But
|
|
when such beliefs come to action, it is not certain that the hated object
|
|
will be the target. A victim of hate need not be the intended object; it is
|
|
enough that it symbolizes it, even though it is neither similar to it, nor
|
|
even resembling it.
|
|
Some people say that we all need to hate something now and then, that it
|
|
is "in our nature", that "it is utmost necessary for being able to love",
|
|
"that it protects fine values against evil forces", and so on. But those who
|
|
claim such ridiculous things have obviously never experienced true hate. If
|
|
they had - and been able to get out of it - they would understand that it is
|
|
not some hard-wired feature of our mind, nor a necessary condition for a
|
|
good life. Hate is nothing more than a psychological disposition, created
|
|
and upheld by ignorance. Its one and only justification is - and this is a
|
|
vicious circularity - itself. It is unfortunately impossible to tell how to
|
|
get someone out of hate; one can only hope that it will fade away. If hate
|
|
is met with hate, nothing is achieved - one will merely engage in a battle
|
|
which is already lost.
|
|
Hate is the ultimate failure of the individual, and its pragmatic
|
|
effects - murder, rape, war, massacre, genocide, et cetera - are the
|
|
ultimate failures of mankind.
