III What are the sources of hate?
A society as a whole decides who or what to hate in general. Differences in between the society might generate hate. For example, one person of a different background in a society doing things different ways than the rest of the society could initiate hate. ...
The media can also be a source of hate. Media, a form of propaganda, has been successfully used in the past to change minds and opinions, to eventually cause hate. For example, a book, magazine or something on television promoting nationalism for one’s country will definitely cause pride, which can then lead to hate. Peers are also a source of hate. ...
Parents can also be a main source of hate. Parents might not educate their children about hate and not teach them to treat everyone equally. Some parents even encourage hate and promote it. ... If there is a parent who is very racist and hates another race then in return you will have a child who has been instilled to hate just like the parents.
