Now I'm not usually pro-hate, unless it is in direct relation to hate. (See: Nazis, Facist-non-Nazi, bigots, racism, sexism) But let me tell you a little story:
1/
1908 Summer Olympic Games. The United States stirred controversy when we refused to dip our flag to King Edward VII.
US Olympic Team Captain Martin Sheridan is said to have explain the reasoning as
"This Flag dips to no earthly king"
2/
The United States, in principle, was founded on the idea that man is created equal.
Today, that phrase may not mean what the Founding Fathers meant, but today's Americans have made it something better.
All man, humans, everyone of them, equal to the other.
3/
Creed, race, wealth are a part of a person's identity, but that doesn't make them better or worse than their neighbors.
How a person acts makes them better or worse.
Bigotry, racism and sexism, helped found this country. But it did not, make it what it is.
4/
Standing up for what's right is what made this country.
It started with No Taxation Without Representation.

Today, what's right, is standing up to police brutality, and corruption in government; Sexism in the work place; Human trafficking.
That's what America stands for.
5/
In conclusion: Do not go gently into that good night.
Punch a Nazi. Report a co-worker. Record the cops. Impeach your government.
Do whatever you can, to hate hate.
