alt Hacker NewsThe author (me) we not trying to rouse hate against specific people. Indeed, I didn't mention or name anyone.
If you truly believe that 50% of people are full of hate, then I can only suggest you get off the computer and go out into your local community.
Most people are willing to give a helping hand to someone who needs it. Most people don't go shouting slurs. Most people don't want their neighbours to live in fear.
If truly 50% of the people you meet are filled with hate and rage against the world, I think that probably says more about the company you keep than it does about the world.

I obviously don't believe that :-/.
Your PoV is that anyone who isn't joining you in your campaign "has no business being here".
What's your estimate on how many people are full of hate? 25%? 5%? 0.5%?
What's your estimate on how many people don't care to join your campaign? 25%? 5%? 0.5%?
I ask because you're painting with an awfully broad brush, implying very strongly that people who don't care to join your campaign "have no business being here".
Because from where I am, maybe 0.5% of people are filled with the hate you think they have, and maybe 50% (probably more) just don't want to join campaigns like yours.
In your writing you lump them all together, in "Us good guys, against everyone else!", not "Us, good guys, against 0.5% of people".
