Justin Bieber shouldn't be hated.

Firstly, I shall address each point made, as well as introduce some reasons why it is perfectly okay to hate Justin Beiber, or for that matter, anyone. A. The hackers attacking Justin Beiber is wrong, yes, but that doesn't have anything to do with why people shouldn't hate him. There is a huge difference between hating Justin, and hacking onto his youtube. This whole point is true, in that it was wrong to hack his account, but relevant to the debate? No, because people shouldn't not hate Justin because hacking is wrong.... B. Music and taste is all a matter of opinion, and if people chose to hate him because of his music, it is because they do not like his music. Just because a song enters the top 10, that does not mean his music is 'good' in the opinion of everybody, just his demographic. You ask "why the hate when he is succesfull?", but this is part of the reason for hate, because he is succesfull without any of the work normal people put in, and without, in their opinion, any talent. C. OK, so there is no proof that he is gay, or a girl for that matter (debatable :) (1)), but the fact is that, again, these rumors are created from the hate, and do not lead to the hate. Therefore, you can't say people shouldn't hate him because the rumors are false, because that is not what leads to the hate. If it was the rumors leading to the hate, sure, you could easily say that since the rumors are false, the hate is on a false premise, but since this is not the premise for the hate, there is no link between these rumors and the hate. D. Sure, people have not met Justin Bieber, however that does not mean they do not know about them. To use you're book metaphor, they are not judging the book my it's cover, but instead by it's blurb, it's reviews, from an extract they have read. They have not met Justin Bieber, yet can still gain an insight into him based on several factors, which I shall show below. So, moving onto some substantive as to why hating Justin Bieber is perfectly legitimate. A. Freedom of Choice - In short, if people chose to hate Justin Bieber, just like anybody else, they have the freedom to do so. The reason for doing so is down to the person, and in the end nobody can tell him that he should not hate Justin Bieber. Everybody is different, and therefore different people appeal to others, and just because certain attributes to one person are reasons he should not be hated, these may be reasons people hate him in the first place. B. So why do people hate Justin Bieber? Well aside from any unique qualms they have, there are some pretty key reasons. 1. Stupidity/Lack of Talent - Probably the biggest issue people have with Justin Bieber is his sheer lack of real world knowledge. Take for example his tour to New Zealand, where he was interviewed on C4 Select Live and didn't know what German was (2), as they don't have that in America. Perhaps he can be forgiven for not understanding the kiwi accent right (I mean, everybody else can but hey...)? But then he showed him the card with it written on it, so he is either A) Highly ignorant or B) Illiterate, either way showing that he has nowhere near the intelligence of many people, and yet he still has more fame, more money, more success, despite never working properly. One of the comments shows this as the premise of hate for this particular hater (Forgive the grammar, it's his second language) "I didnt had any reason to hate justin bieber,﻿ but now, he doesn't know what germany is??? its my homecountry you ------------" 2. His personality. This is the personality reflected to the public, and can give a fair indication of what he is like. The obvious argument here is that this does not reflect his true personality, but the fact of the matter is that this is what people see and hear, and these are actions he has taken himself, with full knowledge of the potential public reactions. A simple parallel here is Tiger Woods, who is now hated by many due to a series of actions which may not truly represent him or his true character, but have been shown to the public. The two examples I would like to bring are firstly, Justin Bieber assaulting a 12 y.o boy at laser tag. "A 12-year-old boy was assaulted in a Richmond entertainment facility. The boy sustained minimal injuries and did not require medical attention at the time," says RCMP's Annie Linteau. (3) After the 12-year-old complained about being hit by Justin Bieber, the singer was thrown out of the facility. (4). Admittedly he was provoked by verbal abuse, however everybody undergoes this at some point in their lives, and you learn the most about a person when the chips are down, and how they react. In this case, Justin definitely did not react in a way made for us to admire him, but instead a way that doesn't speak volumes for his character. Next, however, is an arguably worse case, which shows him as selfish and self-centered, to the point where his actions harm his own mother to the point where she had to get legal support (5). The fact that his own mother did not read his autobiography until after its release, and that his own mother is being left out of his business life, when really he owes her a huge debt. So to sum up, We can see that the hackers has no relation to whether or not people should hate Justin, we see that music depends on the listener, and that therefore it is wrong to say he shouldn't be hated due to his good music, and we can see that accusations again have no relevance. We can also see that there is much more to the cover that Justin has shown to the public, and therefore they have many more reasons to hate him, such as ignorance and personality. Lastly, we have seen that it is peoples right to be able to hate him, or feel whatever feelings towards him, and sayign he should not be hated is akin to saying someone should not be loved.
