What is the diffreance between an opinion and hate comment ?

Let's take a song..

Hate comment goes like this

"This song is fcking trash"

"This song makes my ear hurt/gives me headaches"

Or something along the lines of above statements.

Opinion goes like this

"I dislike this song"

"This song is not my vibe/type" Or "I don't vibe with this song"

"It could've been better"

Or something along the lines of above statements.

i'm not gonna discuss JK Rowling but all i will say is that there's a difference between being transphobic and being a "TERF". they mean two different things and sometimes those who take the "TERF" thing too far are transphobic so it definitely makes sense that some people are angry and confused.

opinion comment: "i don't like x's singing"

hate comment: "x is ugly" "x should go kill themselves"

I think it is pretty easy.

I will use some examples I have seen before.

Opinion: I don't like x group's music.

Hate: They have no talent! OVERRATED!!!!

You can keep your opinion to yourself

A hate comment is just an opinion that needn't be said

An opinion is merely stating someone's view or belief on something whereas a hate comment is just that, to incite hate or a flame war just because they disagree with that opinion. In the case of trolls, they just do it to be hateful and nasty as that's the type of person they are. My block list is full with users like that.
