…hostility is considered to be one of the most virulent mental afflictions in Buddhism, a manifestation of one of the “three poisons” of hatred, craving, and delusion; therefore, to guard against its arising and expression is extremely important. For this one uses introspection. It is easily observed that in most situations where negative emotions are exhibited, they arise and play out automatically.

This phenomenon marks a move away from ideological disagreement toward an emotionally charged dynamic rooted in rejection and hostility, an evolution that may ultimately weaken the very foundations of democratic debate.
