If you are doing something out of malice for decades to a group of people, that is hate, and I will call it out as such. Your false equivalency holds no water, and while I provided receipts in my original comment, I’ll let Rep. Jeffries do some lifting here.
> Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) this week blasted Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for his stance on a number of issues facing the court, including abortion rights.
“Let me ask this question of brother Thomas,” Jeffries said during a House Judiciary Committee hearing this week. “Why are you such a hater? Hate on civil rights. Hate on women’s rights. Hate on reproductive rights. Hate on voting rights. Hate on marital rights. Hate on equal protection under the law. Hate on liberty and justice for all. Hate on free and fair elections. Why are you such a hater?”

I'm pretty sure quoting somebody who is calling somebody a hater is not proof they are a hater. Even if Thomas is a hater calling him out is just leading to more polarization.

See? Hate.
