How to use hateful in a sentence?

1. Victor Avila:

   Despite being very conservative, when I joined the Carroll ISD [Independent School District] Diversity Council, they assumed I was a liberal because I’m Hispanic, what I saw shocked me. The left’s hateful ideologies were being taught to our children. I raised my voice, sounded the alarm, and joined fellow parents in fighting back.

2. Freedom Caucus:

   This kind of hateful rhetoric from an elected official is exactly why tragedies such as the Covenant Christian School shooting in Nashville occurred.

3. Fiona McEntee:

   I think having these conversations with children earlier, they're not going to buy into hateful narratives, they're going to look at immigrants like their neighbor or their teacher or their friend's mom who's from somewhere else, and just appreciate diversity.

4. The Minnesota Democrat:

   We have a moral duty to combat hateful ideologies in our own country and around the world -- and that includes both anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, in a democracy, we can and should have an open, respectful debate about Middle East that focuses on policy. Branding criticism of Israel as automatically anti-Semitic has a chilling effect on our public discourse and makes it harder to achieve a peaceful solution between Israelis and Palestinians. Threats of violence -- like those made against Rep. Omar -- are never acceptable.

5. Martin Luther King, Jr.:

   We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.
