> Hate is a very strong word. What about people who love the place they live in, but have a few things which they would like to chane?

Then they don't hate where they live. Right?

You are right, it is a matter of degrees. That's why I chose a strong word. If someone has reached that level, they can exist in anguish or choose to go elsewhere.

As I mentioned in other comments, this applies to a job one might hate just as well.

In the end it is about freedom.
