We cling to hatred even when love and friendship fade.
Hatred gives us energy and focus, especially when we feel powerless.
People often project their own inner conflicts outward, blaming others instead of confronting themselves.
Civilization doesn’t eliminate hatred — it just hides it behind manners and intellect.

Humans take secret, often guilty pleasure in hating — not because of reason or justice, but because hatred is deeply ingrained in our nature and gives us a sense of power, identity, and superiority.

"On the Pleasure of Hating" by William Hazlitt is a brilliant, biting 1826 essay that explores the dark undercurrents of human emotion — especially hate, which Hazlitt argues is not just common, but pleasurable in a twisted way. Written in a reflective and often cynical tone, it critiques how hatred permeates politics, art, relationships, and even our self-conceptions.
