People are pretty great on average, taking care of each other while trying to get by. Save your strength and spare the hate when ya can. Thats the post.

Nah, hating and wishing bad for Nazis and fascists is OK. Beyond OK. It’s a must if you are a decent person.

I support this compromise.

[–] Carrolade@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

What is a must is combatting it. Hating something before you choose to combat it is optional, so long as the decision to combat it is made.

In other words, if someone hated something, but did not combat it, that would be ineffective. If someone combatted something, but did not hate it, that'd be fine.

The choice and the feeling are two completely independent things.

It's not worth it to be angry over people on the internet. Most of the people in real life are quite swell.

This is adorable 😍

But you can also hate some people bent on destruction like Trump, Netanyahu, Putin, Elon to name a few (feel free to add your own dipshits here). And that is completely fine. Also "people are pretty great on average" might just be your bubble.

Nah, I need to hate on my brother, he is the source of a lot of my trauma

[–] Zozano@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm with you bro.

Waitup...

[–] oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Please don’t call me bro

You probably should though. There are plenty of bad people in the world and to just let them go about their day is literally killing you.

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

You can fight them and stop them without hating anyone. We should fight them and stop them, but the hate is optional

I have to hate myself to become better. That's the only way

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It won't work, and will backfire and cause you to become hateful.

Hope things go well.

[–] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

cause you to become hateful.

I'm 32yo and I'm waay out of this phase. I love people, I don't judge them for their life choices.

It will backfire on my mental health and overall stability, but it's the only mode I can improve that I have discovered so far

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Or, you could love yourself to become better. Reach towards the person who's growing, and let the rest fall away.

No, therapy didn't work

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 1 points 1 month ago

It's more of a hobby for me.
