Hitchens once said during an interview "For a lot of people, their first love is what they'll always remember. For me, it's always been the first hate, and I think that hatred, though it provides often rather junky energy, is a terrific way of getting you out of bed in the morning, keeping you going. It can be if you don't let it get out of hand, it can be canalized into writing. And in this country where people like to be non-judgmental when they can be, which translates as on the whole lenient, there are an awful lot of bubble reputations floating around that one wouldn't be doing one's job if one didn't itch to prick."

Is "hate" per se something that must be "overcome"? Should we not hate injustice, lies, deceit and indecency? AP295 (discuss • contribs) 23:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
