Why We Hate

Cut up clips of the president and insinuation that his supporters are bigots? What a disgrace of a show...

I've been watching this series due to my curiosity of the human condition. While many of the points make sense broadly, the use of sound bites of President Trump and Sean Hannity, for instance, paint a biased picture that foment the hatred they hope to allay. It's so obvious this series was produced from a partisan perspective, rather than an open discussion that views this hatred on bipartisan terms. Both sides are guilty of hatred. If this series had true intention to give those guilty of extreme hatred food for thought, "Why We Hate" has sadly missed the mark.

This series shows how under the right conditions people can manipulated and full horrors of killing. This is common knowledge, but the reasons why it still happening every year in some parts of the world and not always seen, till much later. Its a hard subject to film and even harder to judge what parts of history are worse or should have screen time. Parts of the reasons are when people suppress discrimination against people are willing to fight for their rights, Wars are about land, money, human rights and power and religion. This program also shows how we have to rise above hate and learn from hate to stop hate to become better smarter people.

The act of prejudging a person based on a attribute is the root of tribalism. It's the same tribalism that brought slavery 200+ years ago. Today it has many different targets,but don't think for a second it's not the same philosophy. We teach our kids not to do this and then proceed to do it in academia, media and any place progressives live.

Judge a person by the color of their skin not the content of character. That is what was sorely missed by this activist film.

I see that many people think this is a left wing documentary which is strange when it's just a global fact how we people react when leaders tell us what to do. We change our thoughts and normalize and think we are doing the right thing when we just follow a strong leader. Hate an violance dont getting us further. Very good documentary!
