Important distinction. There's a big difference between ignorance-based aversion and understanding-based aversion. They've effectively convinced western society that everything they call hate is ignorance, that hate borne from understanding doesn't exist - unless it's one of the targets they deem acceptable. It is one of the most destructive falsehoods in history.
(But if you ask me, a small amount of ignorance-based aversion isn't so bad. It demonstrates a healthy sense of self-preservation, which is something westerners in general sorely lack.)
Of course it's not bad, it's a survival instinct. It's that feeling you get when you see an indistinct bug on your arm out of the corner of your eye. You swat it because it might be poisonous and it's smarter not to take the chance.
