Hatred, of course, is among the most powerful forces that easily blind those who fall under its spell. Such negative emotions as jealousy, greed and the desire to destroy those you believe have prevented you from realising your desires flow very easily from such hatred.

In this regard, comparing the venomous and deranged claims of those RPA dissidents to RTLM—among the ultimate in the media of pure hatred—is all too appropriate.
