WHY is There so much HATE in this country???

[Jamastiene]

131. Hate is a multimillion dollar industry in America.

And now, America is exporting that hate so countries like Uganda can make laws that explicitly make it a death penalty offense just to be gay. American preachers are behind that law in Uganda and they are behind quite a bit of other hatred worldwide too. Does America export anything else BUT hate nowadays? Think about it before you answer, because the answer might surprise you. Yes, I'm serious.

Because, the schism between the different areas of America keeps people who would be allies from defeating the forces of hate. I'm from the south. I'm hated down here for being gay. If I go up north, I'll be hated by quite a few people for being from the south. Geez, if I go anywhere else but the south, I'll be hated by quite a few people for being from the south. Never mind the fact that I'm a lesbian who has experienced some of the worst hatred imaginable in this little shithole hometown of mine down south. It doesn't matter. Everyone hates everyone else and very few people really want to stop and get to know each other. If we did, we would find that if the non-hateful people in the south and the non-hateful people in the other areas of the country got together and fought the hatred all over, and yes, including in the south, we could eradicate it through education and breaking down more and more barriers.

But, we don't do that. We just all decide to hate each other, it seems.

Personally, I love anyone from anywhere as long as they don't hate gay people and don't abuse animals or children. I could give a shit less where anyone is from. I just wish everyone else would try to take people on a case by case, person by person basis. Then again, that is how hate thrives. People lump each other into groups to make it easier to hate each other.

Everyday People said it best. Sly and the Family Stone. It's the truth. Everyone seems to hate everyone.

In America, it is now a multimillion dollar EXPORT. This means, one of the main things America exports nowadays is blueprints for how to spread hatred and make some of the most deranged laws imaginable, and make money at it in the process. You KNOW what happens when money is in the mix.
