      *shrug* Hatred is one of the core animating impulses of all human beings, a movement or organization that doesn't tap into it at all is one that's only half-alive Hate, as they say, is the other side of the coin we call love If you don't hate anyone you don't really love either

      Alexander Cockburn famously had as his litmus test question for interns he hired at Counterpunch, "Is your hate pure?" He told a story about asking this question to Ed Miliband and Miliband sputtering "I don't -- I've never hated anyone!"

      And said that in that moment it was obvious to him that New Labour would fail in all its goals, and obvious exactly how it would fail

      Yeah, honestly, I consider that all edgelord posturing to lionize people's giving in to their worst impulses because it makes them feel good.

      This is the exact same thing as the Green Lantern theory of politics; that which makes me feel good, which soothes my fury in the face of an unjust world and gives me a sense of moral purity and power, is automatically efficacious and good, not that which actually gets results.

      biden basically doesn't hate anyone and this is very specifically exactly why I will absolutely be dead before I'm fifty years old

      Leaving everything else one might say about Biden, I don't even get the sense that he personally hates Donald Trump, even after everything Trump has done to fuck with him and his son personally And I see this as an obvious weakness in his character that might doom us all

      Why is it important that Biden hate Trump?

      Because it is very, very important that Trump and all those who supported him be *punished*, that they suffer consequences

      To be fair, that doesn't necessarily require *hate*, it requires a dedication to justice.

      No, not when there are constant obstacles and difficulties thrown in the path of justice An abstract devotion to justice is a weak-stomached thing that usually crumples in the face of the overwhelming temptation to do the easy thing and get on with life

          South African Truth and Reconciliation used to be held up as this shining example of compassion and cooperation triumphing over hate and leading to a better future Now, decades on, that better future hasn't really materialized, and "reconciliation" turns out to be "surrender"

          Black South Africans shouldn't have settled for the whites' apologies, however florid and eloquent they were They should've kept pushing until they took all their fucking money and land But their leaders' hate was no longer pure

          my interjection is that in the popular imagination the scylla of the french revolution and especially the terror holds much sway, but in an american context i am vastly more afraid of the charybdis of redemption

          redemption, which is to say, what followed reconstruction, when the north decided it was tired of trying to reconstruct the south, and brought the troops home, and allowed the white supremacists to build the long nightmare called jim crow that is what i fear

          Any abstract devotion is pretty feeble in 98% of people, but the will to do right by people who are wronged is more robust, and whether or not it involves hatred is just down to the emotional makeup of a person Feelings are a surrogate marker for doing things, not the endpoint
