I see a lot of confusion everywhere on that verse (even here or on that video's comment). I don't claim to have the answer, but I'll still share a few verses:
You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
Matthew 5:43-48
But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.
Luke 6:27-28
Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.
1 Peter 3:9
It's not your job to hate people, and it's not your job to make justice either. If you want to show how great God's mercy and love is, then you have to share it around as well. Hate the sin, love the people.
With that said, there's plenty of confusion on what love is as well, but I have the same conclusion as people here though on that topic. It's not love if you see someone get hurt and do nothing yourself to stop that. It's also not love if you see someone in the wrong, and actually encourage them to stay that way or just straight-up lie to them to make them feel good. It's also not love either if your let your child do whatever he wants without limits. etc.
Love is sometimes about being harsh with your words to tell the truth
“No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”
John 8:11
Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
Matthew 10:37-38
And we all know the many words Jesus had when he talked with the Pharisees and such, cause they used the Law and the opportunities given by God for their own interest. Jesus was loving of his people, but he wasn't always nice.
