Answer:

I'm thinking maybe it has to do something with guilt. If we injured someone mentally or physically, most people would feel guilty about it and just decide to hate that person instead of deal with it. Or maybe you hated that person to begin with and that's why you hurt them. That's just my "interpertation."

Answer:

After we realize we have hurt someone, we need to either justify it to ourselves, or live with the realization that we aren't the "good guy". To justify it to ourselves, we come up with reasons to hate the person we hurt.
