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"

I think that one of the biggest thing that's driven "reform" lately is when people burned down a frigging police station. Particularly because people cheered. I think that scared the people in power. Do you think that act wasn't driven by hate?

I think the relevant thing here isn't whether "hate" or "love" is a more powerful motivator for the people seeking change It's when it comes to the people who need to be convinced, *fear* is a far, far more powerful motivator than "empathy" or "compassion" or whatever bullshit

It's kinda weird to treat them as different in the first place here. Good hate is pretty much always driven by love. Love for the self, to say, "I am worth more than what they're giving me," and love for the other, to say, "The pain of these people is my own."

Yes Even more importantly than love for others, it's important that you first and foremost love *yourself* The freedom to truly love yourself is the freedom to truly hate the people who harm you Which is why people try to teach you that "self-love" is a sin
