Which off the two, people accept more easily, the love or the hate?

This question came into my mind out of nowhere while studying about two weeks ago and it got hold of me. The apparent answer which was coming to my mind then was that people accept hate more easily since that could be the only reason why there is always so much hate around. I immediately sent a text to all my friends through my cell-phone with a message of 'You are the worst.' followed by a second text, few minutes later explaining why I sent it. However, the results weren't satisfactory since most of them thought I was joking or something. So I decided to try the experiment here on eRepublik where there are a lot of people who don't know me.

So about 5 days ago I started sending two PMs to all the congressmen I didn't know from every country though, in the middle of it, I realized that if I go on like this it will take me like 10 days just to send these messages so I lowered the number of congressmen to the 1/100th of the total votes after Canada.

These were those two PMs:


I will call it the 'Awesome' PM in the rest of the article for ease of use.



I will call this one the 'Hate' PM. A point to be noted that both are almost similar in the intensity of emotion just opposite.


At the end, I had sent PMs to the 678 people. Each pm to 339 people.

This third pm was sent as an apology to everyone who received those PMs:



Before I go onto. I must apologize again (though I did it in pms as well, but only to those who replied.) to everyone who received those PMs from me. I am extremely very sorry for hurting your feelings if I did.


I am Sorry.

The Data Collecte😛

359 people replied to first PM.

156 replied to ‘Awesome’ PM while 202 replied to ‘Hate’ PM.

Below is the pie-chart of the emotions which were dominant in responses of the people to the two PMs above:





Fact Derived From The Data:

1. People care more about being hated than they do about being loved, at least when they don't know who the hater or the lover is. Derived from the fact that the number of replies to the 'Awesome' PM was almost 3/4 of replies to the 'Hate' PM.

2. However, those who do care about being loved find it easy to accept love even when it is coming from someone unknown as compared to the number of people who accepted hate. Derived from the fact that 73.7% people accepted the love while more than half of these accepted is without any question. For details about the second part of the fact, look at the spreadsheets at the bottom of the article.

3. On the other hand, most people when faced with unknown hate find it difficult to accept it. Derived from the fact that 63.4% didn't accept the hate as it is and questioned it though some of them were disappointed by a hateful message anyways. For details, look at the spreadsheets at the bottom of the article.

Assumption Based on The Data

1. One reason of most people responding to hate with confusion instead of hate was most probably the fact that the words of PM though harsh were not rude and vulgar. A proof of that could be that I didn't get even a single FP after sending 339 of those PMs.

2. Most people when given a good enough reason and apologized properly are ready to forgive and forget hate. Out of 356 people to whom I apologized only 3 implied that they didn't accept my apology while about 150 replied either laughing and calling the experiment interesting and funny or at least said that they accept my apology.

Conclusion and Things to Learn:

Though most people will make conclusions on their own. Below are the conclusions I have reached.

Most people are ready to accept love. Some without reason and some with little reason. They can't accept hate. They hate being hated. They hate it when people are rude to them. They are normally ready to forgive and forget and make friends. I received about 90 or so friends request from both the groups.

Now assuming all of the above facts, assumptions and conclusion is true. Here is the big question:

Why All The Hate?

1. Because people are rude. Which brings in anger and ego. Which makes the chances of both apology and forgiveness minimal. DON'T BE RUDE!

2. If someone shows you hate. Do not accept it but do not hate them back, at least immediately, look for a reason. If you can't find it. Ask them. Keep that ego away. It won't do no one any good.

3. Sometimes even after finding the reason its difficult to accept the reason of the hate. To accept that you are wrong, you might even be right, and apologize. In such a case at least don't feed the flames of hate yourself. Just keep calm, don't talk about it and be nice to them. They will eventually accept you even if they might never love you.

4. When someone does something good regardless of whether you know them or not just tell them they are great and awesome. Sometimes do it without a reason as well 😁 You will be happier. The world overall will be happier. You will never be happy by being rude or by bullying and trolling.

Below are the spreadsheets dividing the people into columns going a bit deeper into their emotion but even these list are not as comprehensive as they ought to be since human emotions aren't something we can easily outline. Hence the reason of the less success of social sciences as compared to normal sciences.
