Or better yet, live your life that indicates or outright say "I'm glad you two had me. This life thing is wonderful and I'm forever grateful to you."

Yet most people would instead hate their parents. "Disown all racist people." "Hell yea! I just so happened to need a reason to hate my dad for not being there for me."

Even the nicest will something self repressive like try not to hate them. or minimize communication to avoid triggers. or deal w/ them begrudgingly. Pretending to be happy is the big one.

E.g. if you've had thoughts of "i wanna kill myself." but also don't want your parents to be sad b/c they might blame themselves, it's a form of hate. It's a form of hating that they see how far you've drifted that intimate communication is no longer possible.

It's a love that's wrapped around hate which is just as bad as hate wrapped around love. It's just that the direction of the wickedness is projected inwards in a self destructive fashion rather than outwards towards the world.

A peaceful world that has it's energy directed inwards presenting a smooth ball to the outside is not at all peaceful. It's a fake peace. There's tremendous internal tension that can easily flip it into a an exploding shrapnel mine.

It's the explosive version of coming home and kicking the dog because your boss criticized you unfairly. It's a peace that *requires* a tyrant/bully figure arbitrarily enforces some standards in order to provide the pressure to direct these shadow projection spikes inwards.

You can argue that a hierarchy built on mastery of mathematics is more useful than one built on big muscles or ability to juggle but they're fundamentally all arbitrary.
