People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are

There’s always something we don’t like. I can’t stand the taste of beetroots, while my best friend is basically allergic to licorice. Food is just one category where people often express their dislikes, but we see the same bursts of loathing anywhere from the animal kingdom to leisure activities. A relative of mine couldn’t stand stepping into a boat, or rather even the thought of it.

But when you stop and think about the things humans address their hate towards, you start wondering about the reasons why. Maybe we’re simply scared of the unknown (yes, tarantulas, we’re speaking of you!) or maybe it’s our past experiences that haunt us to this day.

In any case, today is the perfect time to step back and reflect on these things. Thanks to these two thought-provoking Reddit threads (here and here) where people listed all the things that don’t deserve the hate they get, we have a lot to uncover!

People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are Feminism. It doesn’t mean that women are better than men, it means women are *equal* to men. And because I believe everyone should be equal, I am proud to say I am a feminist

People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are Homeless people. It doesnt matter how they lost their home, it doesnt matter if they suffer from an addiction, it doesnt matter if they have a job or not. People have unspoken challenges that you dont know about, and they may have never happened to you, and its none of your damn business why theyre homeless. Housing should be considered a human right, and the fact this is still up for debate bothers me. I've seen how small bachelor pads can get, people really dont need much to survive.

Also, people act as if housing being a human right somehow infringes on their ability to buy property, when it doesnt. It just means those that are less fortunate literally just *CANT* be homeless and would be accommodated with the basics for human survival like running water, power, insolated walls and a bed. The fact that housing has been treated as profitable to exploit the lower class, is the reason we have homeless people. Not because of your pre-conceived idea of their life you know nothing about.

People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are Opossums. They're neat little critters. They eat tons of ticks that carry Lyme disease, (mostly) don't carry rabies because their body temp is too low, and they're the only marsupial native to North America! They get a bad rap because their first defense is to hiss and bare teeth, but failing that, they just play dead.

If you don't have the predisposition to hate them, you'll find they're pretty cute too.

Wolves they are always the villian of the story but in real life they are scared of humans and they have every right. Just a few weeks ago a lot people killed a lot of wolves because its "wolf season" or something that of sorts. These creatures are very misunderstood and yeah they are big and can kill a human but it won't unless its hunrgy or threated. A long time ago, there was a wolf hunt in europe killing a lot of wolves.

Let people enjoy things. Music is art, and art is very personal. If you don’t like it, bring headphones. The only time it annoys me is if there’s gospel music in public places. Simply because gospel is very emotional and kind of moody. Like I just wanna sit here and eat my enchiladas and complain to my spouse about work that day. I’m not really in the mood to drop down on my knees in a fervent worship session at Jose Taco.

Absolutely unemployable at that moment in time, and 3. Incredibly lazy. There was hardly anyone in the lazy category. Some of the people experiencing homelessness or people addicted to drugs or alcohol wanted so so badly to get jobs but had too many personal challenges to be reliable enough to make it to work.

I'm allergic. You have no idea how it burns and feels like hot needles being poked in your skin. Layers don't help.

Honestly, I think Reddit gets more hate than it should. Don’t get me wrong, the company itself has a lot of problems, but I feel like there’s this persisting stereotype that Reddit is just a bunch of edgy incels, and it’s just not true anymore (if it ever was). Sure, there are some bad subreddits out there, but mostly what I see, especially in the bigger subreddits, is a really diverse user base in age, experience, and identity.

Reddit is FILLED with people who hate anyone who doesn't agree with their views. Same here. So many people simply can't handle people with differing views.

People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are Police officers. Sure there are the occasional that go on power trips, but there are far more just doing their job. And chances are that the only reason you had a bad experience with one is because you were doing something wrong to begin with.

No. Way too much evidence of bad run ins with cops when people weren't doing anything wrong.

People Name 50 Things That Should Not Be So Universally Hated But Somehow Are Simon Cowell, at least back in the day when American Idol was huge in the US. People always called him mean, but from what I could tell he was basically right all the time, and he didn't sugar coat things because he had to make up for every other judge sugar coating their feedback so much. There were probably instances of him taking things too far, but I never saw that myself.

I don't hate him for what he says, I hate him for his systematic destruction of the UK music business.

Can't say anything about the group themselves, or any interaction I had with their fans, but it's more for the repetition of their song with Coldplay that airs on the radio at least twice a day. I swear, despite the radio station advertising the "No Repeat Workday", I hear that song (and others) on average twice to three times a day. And there's also the fact it's not my cup of tea genre wise, as I'm more of a rock fan, but that's just splitting hairs at that point. And every fanbase will always have that subsection which makes the fandom difficult to be apart of/are toxic, which always gives the fanbase a bad rap.

What do you think ?

I fully believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion but that it shouldn't interfere with anyone else's lives. If you don't like the LGBT community then don't participate. If you don't like certain shows on TV, then don't watch. If you don't like certain lifestyles, then don't live like that. If you don't like abortions, then don't get one. It's just that simple. People need to stop shoving their views/beliefs/ideals down our throats and just pay attention to their own lives instead of butting into others. We need to respect each other to a certain degree. Full stop

Oh, if the people doing the hating would actually read and comprehend what you wrote, Mama. My thoughts exactly. What on earth is wrong with "live and let live?"

GAYS! Just because you misinterpreted the Bible on the subject, does not give you the right to hate (or worse: act on this hate). Maybe you should read what Jesus himself said: "Love, Honor and Respect. But the most important thing is LOVE!"

Vinniegret 2 years ago

Well, that didn't go as expected. Oerff,, you are misquoting Jesus. The verse you are referencing is from the Old Testament. Jesus is in the New Testament. Jesus spoke of love many times, but your reference is from Corinthians.

GMOs. There are 2 major types of GMO's in the world; Roundup-ready and BT. The reason that these are the 2 major types is simple; Greenpeace. Greenpeace's use of GMO as a fundraising boogieman has ensured that it is almost impossible to get funding for any GMO research for the last 50 years. My home country of New Zealand has a problem with greenhouse gases produced by farming. Almost all of which could be solved by GM rye-grass and modifying the gut bacteria of the cattle. The effectiveness and safety of this has already been proven. But there is no way the public will allow it. Nicotinoid insecticides are killing bees worldwide. Bt crops completely solve this problem. But they cut into the profits of organic insecticide producers who wish to spray Bt, the world's most popular organic insecticide.

GMOs are a double-edged sword. On the one hand, they have great promise to solve many problems; on the other, unscrupulous companies exploit them to fatten their profits. Also, we don't yet understand everything about genes and genetics. Genes that make crops resistant to herbicides can jump to the weeds, resulting in super-weeds that are nearly impossible to kill. Also, many GMO crops do not have viable seeds, so the farmers have to buy seeds every year instead of reserving some from each year's harvest for next year's planting.
