JK:
Someone needs to define "hate" here.
*It's an emotion, and like the other emotions it is
usually quite personal. People tend to hate those who
harmed them personally, or perhaps those who they
identify with closely like their family, nation etc.
Someone who is white might intellectually recognize
that slavery in the US was morally wrong but they are
unlikely to hate the US for that reason. However, it
doesn't seem appropriate that they should look down
upon those who do actually hate the US for that
reason. Which hints that there are indeed plenty of
reasons to hate the US, and plenty of people who might
understandably have that emotion.
O.K.
