"I hate ketchup" is an opinion about ketchup. "Hate" is just a descriptor that designates the strength of one's preferences.

Ketchup will ferment. Ketchup is sometimes sold in these bulk bags for restaurants. When improperly stored those bags can begin to ferment…and swell. And swell and swell. Until they swell too much and explode, splattering sickly sweet rotten ketchup over everything in a roughly twelve foot radius. I've had to clean that up. That's why I hate ketchup.

Not an unpopular opinion, just factually wrong. Seems you are confused about what opinions are

Hate is an extreme level of opinion. An opinion is a view or judgement.

Pointless semantics

I agree somewhat. Just hating just to hate or hating for silly reasons is just being petty but genuinely not liking something and saying it is a valid opinion.

"Hate" is thrown around way too much that it's lost meaning. Dislike is the word people are looking for

I agree with this, hate can be valid

I prefer rapists to pedophiles

by Anonymous 10 months ago

I prefer normal people to either of those things

But I want to do better, and this requires a scale of preference

Well in my book pedophiles are rapist… the worst kind.

Now the scale of preference is ruined. I wanted to do better, but now I must revert back to hate 😞

Thank you. These arseholes know exactly how dishonest they're being when they try to hurt this into an argument over semantics.

That's what you're doing tho. Of course you can hate something and still be good

by Anonymous 10 months ago

You can't hate entire groups of people for their nature or background and call yourself good. That's fundamentally prejudicial.

by Anonymous 10 months ago

That isn't a hateful opinion. You're not being hateful by hating the taste of brussel sprouts. An example of a hateful opinion would be thinking that all members of a particular ethnic group are criminals by virtue of being a member of that ethnic group. That's *being* hateful. Hating a type of food because you don't enjoy the taste doesn't qualify.

And Most importantly: hate is not an emotion

by Anonymous 10 months ago

Hate is an adjective for a feeling and therefore an actual opinion. It's simply grammar

by Anonymous 10 months ago

Idk about that, but if anyone starts an argument with you with "I just believe", you should head out.

Opinions doesn't have to be innocent to be opinions.

If it's valid it really isn't crossing a line. There are certain types of people who earned and deserve to be hated for what they choose to be/do.

Opinions have never been and will never be inherently innocent.

What constitutes hate is the problem I have not that actual hate should be tolerated. And who decides what is hate.

by Anonymous 10 months ago

Lol might not be innocent, but it's certainly an opinion nevertheless

by Anonymous 10 months ago

Hatred is an act. It's the *reasoning* behind the hatred that is the actual opinion.

by Anonymous 10 months ago

I use the word hate all the time, but it's often just a figure of speech when I do. People love to nitpick now. There is no nuance anymore.

I have no idea what you are trying to argue here. Nobody thinks hate is an opinion

I feel like you're getting the same point across regardless of what words you're using.

Why do opinions have to be positive or neutral? People can have strong negative opinions

by Anonymous 10 months ago

Hate isn't an opinion, it's an emotion. It can't be labelled invalid, it just is how a person feels. People can't change it directly, they can only choose to ignore or supress it, rationalise themselves out of it or learn to love with it.

This isn't really a difference of opinion. It's more a matter of you assigning some mystical level power behind the word hate, as opposed to what it legitimately is, which is an intense disliking. Which is literally a level of preference and opinion on something, which is how you'd prefer people to talk.

Hate is a feeling. Feelings are not opinions, they are feelings. They can influence opinions tho.

Opinions are feelings. Hate is a word that can be used to describe an opinion.
