I didn't do it consciously. When I wrote my original post, I'd hallucinated that the author had used the term "hate". When Advael responded "the author doesn't mention hating these people at all", I went back to the article and checked. Advael was right, but I can understand where my hallucination came from. The first three sentences read: > There's a special kind of contempt I reserve for the person who says, "I have nothing to hide." It's not the gentle pity you'd have for the naive. It's the cold, hard anger you hold for a collaborator. A "special kind of contempt" mixed with "cold, hard anger" really seems like hatred to me. (Anyway, this really isn't the point I was trying to make.) | ||
