I hate intolerance I hate bigotry I hate women's rights being taken away I hate anti-trans ideologies I hate anti-science ideologies I hate genocide I hate fascism I hate rapists and child abusers Ergo I hate Trump and I hate ICE My hate of these is not negativity. It’s positive intolerance. 7/7

When it comes to a person's principles and values, what they hate is as important as what they like. It tells others where a person's limits are. What they won't tolerate or let slide for the sake of comfort and ease. Hate is a trait that can show others what people truly value and stand for. 6/7

The thing is, most people don’t understand hate as a complex emotion. They see it only as negative because that’s how it's taught to us as small children. “I hate vegetables” “I hate this movie” “I hate the cold” Hate was only ever meant as a negative emotion for the sake of negativity. 5/7

Only saying the positive things can actively hide a person’s real values. It's a form of harmful positivity, because they get to smuggle in all kinds of things with their "kindness". A person can say “I like women” but still think women shouldn’t have a vote, equal pay, or bodily autonomy. 4/7

Only using positivity doesn't help express ideals and values in a clear fashion. For example, I used to have a friend who said this about himself: - He liked women - He liked peace - He liked freedom - He liked human rights All positive traits that sound great and make a person sound nice. 2/7

Another TKay Thread. Recently someone commented on an image of mine saying the message of “Fuck ICE” in my art was “unnecessarily hateful”. That got me thinking of how for most people, hate is a misunderstood and oversimplified emotion to a childish degree as only ever meaning "Hate = Bad". 1/7
