The Power of Hate
Good morning, fellow classmates, faculties, mom, and dad. It’s my honor to stand here and deliver the last speech of this semester.
I hate to say this, but to be honest I hate to be forced to stand here on the podium. I hate to be the center of all attention and speak about the topic of hatred. I hate to bring negative emotions to my audiences and ruin their days by delivering my senior speech.
I hate to be hateful, but hate attracts me for its tainted beauty and I am so obsessed with it that even if all people around me keep on telling me hating is useless, I will still run through the flame and embrace it.
Unlike dislike, hate is a more intense and long-lasting negative perception of thing we do not feel comfortable with. Because physical fights are not favored in most moral standards, they are often suppressed by punishments which prevents them from developing and lock them in their rudiments, hatred. When the outburst is prohibited and all emotional trash accumulate, people begin to fall into the tendency to devalue their targets. From now on, every action of the person you hate is making him more stupid and hateful in your perception, which drives your hatred to a higher level. This cycle continues to repeat itself and finally at some point you feel like the existence of the person is just a hilarious mistake resulted from a misplaced biological process and now with a delusion of absolute upright you feel it’s your responsibility to clean this jerk
doesn't want others to do the same. Hatred is a strong feeling, it can be hard to control, but
Hatred lives deep inside one’s bones.
Hate is a powerful word with a more powerful meaning, sometimes it can be so powerful, it kills someone. Romeo And Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is a tragic story about star-crossed lovers who eventually meet their end because of an old grudge. In this play, hate is what contributed to Romeo's death. There are several instances in the play to prove this claim, one being when Tybalt challenges Romeo to a fight but Mercutio fights Tybalt instead.
The focus of hatred in the two-minute hate can be seen today as well. Hate is an emotion that everyone experiences. In 1984, two minutes is taken every day to focus hate on Emmanuel
If one hates someone or something that means they have an intense dislike towards them. Sometimes this hate can be so large it can be an influence for mass destruction. We have learned, or even have seen examples of hate turning into something bigger throughout our history. These examples include the multiple wars, terrorist’s attacks, and genocides. Many of these incidents were drove by hate, and did not end well. What drives this hate? How can people turn on one another with just feeling hate towards them? The Holocaust being one of the many genocides in our history was indeed influenced by an intense dislike. That intense dislike was towards certain types of people it ended up taking multiple lives.
Throughout my life, I have always been told that hate is a strong word. This saying so happens to be true. This word seems to be used loosely but there are not many people who can say they hate someone, in opposition to disliking
Love is virtually a universal emotion. Almost everyone experiences being in love or being loved, and the same thing could be said about hatred. In The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne discusses the similarities between love and hate. He observes that people who are in love and those who hate both feel empty with the absence of their subject of attention. At the end of his book he reflects, “It is a curious subject of observation and inquiry, whether hatred and love be not the same thing at bottom” (236). Hawthorne is referring to the similarities developing between loving and hateful relationships in his story. He thinks that since both require a lot of emotional investment and cause you to focus on a single person, love and hate are at their cores the same.
If one does not let go of hatred, then it will cloud one’s heart judgement and actions and for some, the want for vengeance that comes with it may consume one’s morality. With regards to the effects of hatred, the protagonist in Guy de Maupassant's “Old Milon” demonstrates the quality of spitefulness with his actions. After the death of his father and son, Old Milon starts to feel resentment towards the Uhlan soldiers as a whole, regardless of the individual and expiate their deaths by killing Uhlan soldiers. Before his first murder, Old Milon was consumed by his hatred of the Prussian soldiers and as a result, he did not take into account that the soldiers he targeted were essentially innocent, Old Milon was able to unwaveringly and violently swing his scythe without hesitation. In addition to his clouded judgement,
Throughtout The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas, the theme hate is clearly exhibited by multiple characters. As described by oxforddictionaries.com, hate is to “ have a strong aversion to (something).” The main protagonist in The Count of Monte Cristo, Edmond Dantes, was immensly wronged by four of his peers and was sentenced to waste his life away in the Chateau d’If. Moreover Haydee, Dantes’ associate, was sold into slavery by one of the quintets who betrayed Dantes. In due course, Dantes and Haydee alike dedicate their entire lives to punish and take revenge upon those who caused them to suffer.
Hatred becomes action not due to apathy or indifference, but when a person wishes to act. When people are willing to kill themselves for a cause it is not due to a whim or immature persecution complex, there must be much stronger factors involved. People willing to go this far... and to maintain that mentality for periods of time to organize an attack and carry it out have got more of a grudge than a mere shallow hatred of success or jealousy.
Yet on the flip side, loathing is the feeling of utter hatred one person carries for another. Loathing carries the implications that the other person has either committed
Love and hate are both very powerful emotions. The abundance one can feel inside when feeling them can be overwhelming at times. I think everyone can relate to the feeling when you love someone so much you would do anything and everything for them. We can also understand that feeling when you can’t even stand the thought of someone being in the same room of you. When we look at what emotion is more powerful, I think hate is stronger than love. The reason being is that love can quickly turn to hate, but hate doesn’t change to love very fast, if at all. I think Othello is a great example of this. His love for his wife, turned to hate so fast because he thought she was cheating on him. He murdered his wife in pure cold blood which shows how hate can be such a powerful emotion that it can actually cause someone to want to commit murder. The feeling of love and hate can change someone, and they both can be very powerful. However, I think that hate is an emotion unlike no other in which the feeling is very stable, in the since that it is very hard to change someone’s mind about you when they hate you.
In the workplace or business area of life, there is also a lot of hate going on. Employees tend to get a lot of hate in their attitudes when they don’t receive a promotion or if they are given negative feedback from a boss or superior. They don’t seem to want to change to get where they want to be. Ex-employees tend to hate their ex-boss when they are let go. It is rare to find someone that has been let go not have hateful feelings toward the company or boss.
There is no point in hating thy enemy. Hatred and anger towards someone else can have a long lasting emotional and psychological effect. The hatred and anger goes beyond just hating and having anger towards that individual that hurt you. This emotion begins to spread and discharge toxic. The toxic takes over your life. You now begin to have hatred towards others; innocent others. You begin to create damage to one’s self and one’s life. The world is no longer the same. You allowed yourself to become trapped, and you will stay trapped. You will stay trapped because you chose not to forgive.
While many know who they hate and why, those that are hated may not know what it is that caused said hatred. This is because people are quick to judge and then hate because of their conclusion they have drawn without questioning their outcome through another perspective. Many do not reconsider why they hate that person, they just know that they do. People need to learn to reconsider their beliefs of a person because what they may believe can change from the perspectives of another. Hatred and grudges could all be resolved if people were willing to look at it from a different perspective
