In the Spite House
AL Kennedy on the 'architecture of hate' which 'slips in through the cracks when we ration our humanity.'
AL Kennedy discusses the addictive nature of hate.
'Religion', she writes, 'was once called the opium of the masses; hate is now the Oxycontin of the masses. That low thrum of resentment, spikes of rage, hate gives them a logic, an addictive rush.'
