Hate2Love2Win is a movement started by entrepreneur and media personality, Josh Tolley. The concept was simple; there is too much hate in the world.
It seems today that people from all persuasions are at everyone else's throats. We have 'cancel culture' and 'self-defined truth' continuing to spread hate around the world.
The idea behind #Hate2Love2Win is simple: We must turn our hate for one another into love for one another through true tolerance and understanding. Once we have love for one another we can finally win, which means all people support the idea that everyone can co-exist, be productive, and pursue life without preventing others from opposing our ways of living. In order to accomplish this, a list of loving principles designed to bring harmony and fight hate can be adhered to.
Tolerance is love. Forced acceptance is hate and a greater hate than non-tolerance. We must realize that nobody must support our choices, no body must be forced to agree, accept or promote our ways of living.
It is ok to be offended. The offender need not apologize or be punished in order for our life to be happy and fulfilling. The world should not have to adjust because someone was offended.
If we are to punish people for the speech or their beliefs than we are becoming that which we are fighting against. In order to have a happy life and a successful society we must promote that which offends
If speech is so terrible as to cause actionable consequences in a private setting than we must make it rare and we must provide an opportunity for repentance and restoration
Self-defined truth can be permissible in society but its implementation by others must be voluntary, and we still should recognize that freedom of all and objective truth take precedent in interaction and application
Freedom of all is paramount and we must defend our opponents or we ourselves lose the freedom to oppose them and we must wish for the freedom of our advisories as much as we wish it for ourselves
While subjective truth can be enjoyed it must never be at the expense of objective truth nor freedom. Businesses, Schools and Organizations that place subjective truth ahead of objective truth and freedom should be avoided until which point, they support humanity and love
By challenging our own beliefs often and loving those who oppose us we must understand that if our beliefs are true and of worth, we need not fear contrary opinion. We must understand that even if those who oppose us exist, unless they pose us imminent bodily harm or the theft/destruction of property than they are equal to us and have the right to be expressive about it. We should seek to hear out their positions, weigh them through the lens of sound deductive reasoning and if we must change, no matter how difficult, we must. If, however, their beliefs do not hold merit after deductive reasoning then we must express patience and attempt to education them to a better position, not force them to it through legislation or social punishment beyond the shame that comes with living in error and fault.
Unless someone is rendering us a victim of physical harm or the loss or damage of capital or property than we must embrace the challenging yet rewarding diversity of ideas and lifestyles. We must recognized forced compliance and acceptance leads to more hate not less. We must strive to coexist with, not hinder, people who will never approve of our ways or beliefs and that this is completely ok and instead of being fought, should be celebrated. We must desire an inclusive and diverse society where an enemy of thought can still be a good neighbor and co-worker.
