Re: Ideologies of hate
Jonny if I've understood what you are saying (of which there is no guarantee) I think you're getting your causation wrong fairly dramatically. Most people don't slip into "us versus them" views because it's a quirk of the human condition that we enjoy doing so; there's usually a "thing" that makes "us" angry, and the people doing the "thing" are "them". I don't see what's inherently illegitimate about this approach, and I really can't understand how you came to your interpretation. (If that is your interpretation. It's quite hard to tell because frankly two out of every three sentences in your post were exercises in melodrama and it was hard reading.)
