Absolutely!
I’ve always felt that Hate is an absence of Love, like how Cold is an absence of Heat.
You can go to a person and emit all the love in the world, and for some people that’s all it takes, but some people are just too insulated. That usually happens when their hate is tied to an ideology that their identity is dependent on.
Sometimes it’s not an ideology so much as a traumatic experience that associated their trauma with a hatred of some person(s).
In either case, the only way to dispell that hate is for the person to open up their barriers enough for the love to make it’s way in, and that’s a lot of work.
