Hatred. It's what humans do. I prefer love.I am sick of being hated if I open my mouth, look or act like what others believe, that is oppression. Do I come from Israel with right of return? HA! I'm not a Jew according to many Jews. I'm a minority of 300,00 of 8 billion. And XX.

Not hatred. It is fear and it is addictive.

Hmmm. I don't fear a lot I'm not devoid of it. there's not much I fear other than being taken into a medical facility to die and that is being mitigated with palliative home care and hospice. I have have seen people who fear everything to the point of obsession. It's reasonable.

I apologize. I didn’t mean to make it personal. I was talking in a general sense that the culture around us conditions us with fears. Humans are hard-wired to hate things they fear. You’re right, hatred is easier the work on but it’s diagnostic, it’s not preventative.

You make a provocative point about fear and culture and I like the fact that we don't really know whether our limbic systems are responding to a known and given fear of something or an awareness that threat requires response. That opens up inquiry and discourse potentially.
