why is hate more passionate than love

[Jean Jacket]

Hate is rooted in fear.

Fear activates a primal physical and mental response to a life or death situation.

Adrenaline allows the human body to use up to 80% of our physical and mental strength.

More passionate?

Hate causes you to take a life.
Love causes you to lay down your own life.

 

[NoirDynosaur]

Hatred is a projection based on fear

Fear is based on animalistic instinct

Disagree that hate is more passionate than love

Not every human feels fear nor hatred. There's some people whose amygdala is absent of processing emotions (psychopathy)

Both emotions are based on attachment. Attachment is the root of all suffering.

Or do you disagree that it's the other way around

Speaking from personal experience, the saying that hate eats you alive is true
I have literally seen hatred of someone or something eat me up from the inside and consume me whereas I have never loved as passionately as that

There's a solution to hatred consuming you. Get even with person, or resolve the reason for the anger.

Works for me.

Apathy is more powerful than both

 

[Black Magisterialness]

Thing is passion is fleeting. Hate is something that even if it feels like it persists will never endure in the face of true, unyielding love. It's REAL hard to hate something that loves you dearly.

It's why you see mothers weep over children that are convicted murderers. Or why children can still yearn for the attention of a sibling. It's why couples can accept their flaws and build beautiful loves together.

Love is literally the most powerful thing there is.
