Today we explore the nature and morality of hatred, the subject of my first book In Defense of Hatred. Due for some revisions and some scientific validation, we go over the basic arguments and points, including:

• Hatred as "disgust towards mind"
• Hatred as an expression of love
• Hatred and harm
• Anti-Hatred as hatred
• Justified vs Unjustified hatred
• "Hot" and "Cold" hatred
• The risk of castrating love by giving up hatred

Referenced material:

• In Defense of Hatred (Amazon)
• "The Dark Side of Oxytocin"
• Robert Sapolsky, "Hate and the Brain"
