Merriam defines

So hate is just the extreme end of an “unfriendly feeling” which is synonymous to a negative feeling. We can go “golden middle” on this and say that moderate negative feelings are ideal, but even the moderate form seems synonymous to bias or prejudice.

    Avoiding ppl is often seen as ok or good but it is also synonymous with estrangement, alienation, neglect, and marginalization. Also a form of discrimination & prejudice. Thats a lot of words with negative connotation but i meant the literal definitions

      Fam if I don’t talk to a stranger, that isn’t neglect. You aren’t owed padded, fluffy kindness by everyone :)

        What do you think the word “strange” mean in stranger and estrangement? I am going to need a “vibes” dictionary in order to communicate with yall.

      Thats a stretch. Everyone does not hang out with folks they don’t care for and do hang out with folks they do. I liked hanging with fandom folks at fandom events but im meh to sporting events and sure as heck don’t want to sit through a religious service. Its not discrimination because you go to the library over a bar but each place has a type of person with some crossover for bi types.

        Look at the dictionary because i am skeptical if you are aware of what discrimination means. There is also the act of “discriminating” as in to discern what from what. I get the impression that there is “vibes” understanding of the words instead of their meaning.
