Hate is a very strong word

It seems that people love saying this phrase like they created it or something. Thinking that their so advanced and civil that they are incapable of hate. It's time to knock them off of their high horse. I give you five comebacks to the phrase 'hate is a very strong word'.

1. 'Well, I am a strong person'
The defiant/confrontational comeback.

2. 'Do you not hate the effects of drug addiction?'
The logical comeback.

3. 'I just hate evil'
The self-righteous/circular comeback.

4. 'I don't see it that way, I see hate as a strong combination of letters'
The sarcastic comeback.

5. 'Hate, strong? Aha that bitch could hardly bench 115'
The random broly comeback.
