City of Hate

Despite the best of efforts to portray it otherwise, Hamilton is not a city of hate.  It’s a city filled with human beings who bear human emotions; but Hamilton is not a city of hate.

Have you noticed that hate seems to have risen in direct proportion to the rise of Woke?  There’s a reason for that, and it’s because Woke needs hate to justify itself.  Disguising itself beneath a cloak of justice-seeking, Woke thrusts its contemptuousness in the face of ordinary society.  Woke creates alleged villainy and alleged villains who become objects of hate - Woke hate.  The non-acceptance of homosexuality is deserving of hate, even though non-acceptance itself is not a form of hatred.  The rejection of critical race theory makes one a “white supremacist,” which makes one a deserving object of hatred.  The rejection of reality-defying transgenderism makes one responsible for someone’s suicide, which makes the rejecter deserving of hatred.

The campaign to get the last ten percent of people vaccinated was all founded upon hatred.

So, it’s not surprising that hate crimes appear to be on the rise – from a very low base.  Nor it is surprising for “hate experts” to materialize, because sustaining the belief in hatred makes them important.

For balance, we need to keep in mind that Western Civilization is the most tolerant yet created, though still imperfect; but those imperfection don’t justify destroying it in the chase for a chimerical Utopia – world free of hate.
