I'm not American Indian, Jewish,
Black, or a member of any minority. Yet, I believe
there are human issues of special importance to all. These are major
examples of
what hatred can deem to be "acceptable behavior" towards some other
individual.
Friedrich Nietzche - Was a sick, self-important individual, didn't
believe people have rights.
Machieavelli was another such highly individual writer. Their
impact on History has never
stopped. The likes of Hitler, and others who practiced severe forms of Racism, against any
people (past or present) have been a sorry footnote in the pages of
history.
Klu Klux Clansmen, the Nazi Party - those
who pretend to be "superior" to any group of people...
These are the social misfits, the "defective ones", who have caused
countless misery and harm.
They still win elections in Europe, and have many members in the U.S.
The words of Nietzche:"Our first responsibility is to help prepare the world for the
coming of a
higher type of man". (I don't believe he was envisioning of
"anything like" the "Messiah",
here!).
The next two links belong to a
group who I will let you make your
own judgements about.
After that are some strong reminders of the results of hatred...
