==== 2. Hatred (Aversion to Conflict / Both-Sidesism) ====

Where it appeared:
* Presenting “many observers say genocide” vs. “Israel and allies reject the term” as roughly symmetric positions.
* Treating denial by implicated parties and their allies as epistemically comparable to findings by human rights bodies and genocide scholars.

Why this is Hatred:
This is classic conflict avoidance. The sides are not epistemically equal:
* One side consists of documented patterns of mass killing, starvation, displacement, and statements of intent, assessed by experts.
* The other side consists largely of self-interested denial by the accused and geopolitical allies.

Presenting them as parallel “views” is false balance.

Detection question applied:
Am I presenting both sides because the evidence is balanced, or because taking a position feels uncomfortable?

Answer: discomfort.

Verdict:
Hatred (conflict aversion) is present via both-sides framing.
