I feel the word hate is used way too often now. For example, if a person cannot change your mind or they have lost an argument, the go to word to end the debate is hate. I believe it's perfectly fine to not like or believe in something without hating it. Thoughts?

I agree the word "hate" is used to much. When in a heated discussion one should always remember that it is the topic that is being discussed not anyone personally involved. I don't think there really are winners or losers in a discussion.

According to a Russian friend a discussion is friends trying to arrive at the truth and I agree with that. It is only in formal debates with official judges that we have winners or losers.

hate as a thought is a pointless endeavour the only person it affects is the thinker as an act well the world could do without it

I detest the word "Thoughts?" used that way.

"Hate" is a hyperbolic term, as generally used (e.g., "I hate this weather" ). I wouldn't read too much into it.

I hate injustice. I hate war. I hate poverty. I hate predation by the strong upon those weaker than themselves. The people who do these things, I just don't care about; but they need to suffer the consequences of their actions.
