I think Hate is an easy and lazy emotion. And, it can be satisfying to one's "id" since, by lowering one's opinions of a group of people, it invariably raises one's self esteem. Personally, my self esteem has always been fueled by pride that I'm not a bigot, and hate is almost non-existent (except for anyone with the Trump surname ).
