I don’t think you can banish feelings If you mean to banish as in to remove, then why not remove bad or nonconstructive feelings? If all things hateful is ultimately counterproductive, and hate is a degree of intensity from the emotion of dislike, then moderating that level of dislike ought to be good, just logically. Removing (banishing) hateful feelings, or being anti-hate, seems both popular and logical.

They said “I don’t think you can banish feelings”, you even quoted that, and you consequently suggest banishing feelings?

Conveniently, there’s a Psychology Today article on stoicism and banishing of emotions. I am surprised how easy cheap confirmation was to find. Sharing for credibility-factor, even though I think it’s a bit irrational/superficial. psychologytoday.com/…/how-to-banish-negative-emot…

yes, this is a simple difference of opinion. I’m not sure what the hiccup is.

See the (non-philosophical) problem?

The role play is lacking important information for me to understand. It resembles a riddle. Can you speak directly with complete sentences?
