The root is fear. Convince people to be afraid of something, they will let you completely reprogram their mind. Fuck, they'll even beg you to do so...

Lots of people are afraid and not doing horrible things to others, I don’t buy that excuse anymore.

Oh, I don't mean it that way. People that use their fear and insecurities to justify hated can fuck right off to the deepest layers of hell!
