Self Hatred Form

More From Aleksandar Hemon

The three monotheism share a series of identical forms of aversion: hatred of reason and intelligence; hatred of freedom; hatred of all books in the name of one book alone; hatred of sexuality, women,and pleasure; hatred of feminine; hatred of body, of desires, of drives. instead judaism, christianity, and islam extol faith and belief, obedience and submission, taste for death and longing for the beyond, the asexual angel and chastity, virginity and monogamous love, wife and mother, soul and spirit. in other words, life crucified and nothingness exalted.

I hated sports. i hated sports, and i hated people who played them, and i hated people who watched them, and i hated people who didn't hate people who watched or played them.

I hated the mountains and the hills, the rivers and the rain. i hated the sunsets of whatever colour, i hated its beauty and its magic and the secret i would never know. i hated its indifference and the cruelty which was part of its loveliness. above all i hated her. for she belonged to the magic and the loveliness. she had left me thirsty and all my life would be thirst and longing for what i had lost before i found it.

I cannot project the degree of hatred required to make those women run around in crusades against abortion. hatred is what they certainly project, not love for the embryos, which is a piece of nonsense no one could experience, but hatred, a virulent hatred for an unnamed object...their hatred is directed against human beings as such, against the mind, against reason, against ambition, against success, against love, against any value that brings happiness to human life. in compliance with the dishonesty that dominates today's intellectual field, they call themselves "pro-life".

A manhattan lawyer who describes himself as "america`s leading expert on the militia movement" writes that he hugged his three-year-old kid the night of the oklahoma city bombing. he told junior that it happened "because they hated too much" for now, let`s accept the premise that one hundred sixty-eight humans died in oklahoma city because people "hated too much" now answer these questions if you would be so kind: did a federal sniper shoot vicki weaver in the face because he hated too much? did our government conduct the tuskegee with syphilis on black soldiers because it hated too much?
