I hate the person because he's annoying me, the universally logical thing to do is to kill him -- that will give a 100 percent assurance that the particular object of hate will not annoy me any longer, hence life will be easier for me.
My hate is essentially caused by my desire to live easier, because it drives me to break through the barrier.
Why is this so difficult to understand?
that logic there is fine, but that's not what i'm talking about.
we're comparing "hate" to "not hate".
what if he annoyed you and you didn't hate him?
and why do you need hate to kill him if you want to in the first place? why is the intense, consuming dislike even necessary? you make it seem like a rational thing, but it's not. if you want him dead, kill him. fine. what positive role does hate play?
