Will hatred always play a role in human culture? Can we eliminate it from the human experience?

I do believe hate is possible to remove from once mind yes.
If it is possible to remove hate from every person on earth, that is a very big challenge i believe. everyone would have to fully want to remove their hate for it to be done.

not likely
the emotion is built into our beings
but it needs to be disciplined.....not aggrevated
and media......and the people who manipulate the media
are the source of the aggrevation

Near everything, if not everything has an opposite. As long as there is love there will be hate.
It is too soon to answer that question, however the answer is being worked on. Many people work on this in various ways, trying out different ways to make it happen. Some of them have been famous historic blunders, empires and political systems. Others have been clubs, secret societies, sports, youth programs, educational methods.
Work continues, and as long as people have hate, more ways to eliminate hate will be tried. Eventually something will work, because we will never give up.
I think one thing that may work is if breakthroughs in human psychology eliminate most forms of madness. It is only in the last century that human psychology has become so well understood, and research proceeds. Imagine a world in which angry people don't become paranoid. Imagine a world where there are no anger control problems, where every person has complete control of when they get angry. Imagine a world in which each person feels valued and values themselves. This is not something we have ever seen happen but which is possible.
I believe it will. Hate is an emotion so without pretty radical brain surgery it will stay with us. It can however be minimised through various means
I see hatred as a misapplied skill--wrathful emotions are useful for getting around obstacles and solving problems. What we know as hatred is when we don't look deeply enough at the problem in order to truly resolve it and instead go for a quicker means that doesn't truly resolve the problem.
Tibetan Black Magic is transforming hatred into compassion (skillfulness.) Instead of hating the person, you skillfully help yourself to overcome your hatred and resolve the actual suffering.

If one person can eliminate it from their own experience, I see no reason it can't be removed from a human culture.
But hate is a product of ego, and until people manage their ego instead of allowing their ego to manage them, I'm afraid hate will remain a part of the human experience.

I hope so. I'm not a hate ad revenge person since I have no reason to hate and don't feel the need, but more it's hard to forgive which may cause just as harm, in some respects.
It does heightened a sensitivity when they feed a people's emotions to where they need to hate person back. I think it has its place...say maybe it's the minds way to justify it feeling threatened by someone else's speech or behavior. It blames the other for ones emotional responses.
But if we found alternative feelings, cognitive distortions changes, it would do a world of good. Not rejecting hate or needing to suppress it, but realizing it has no power over a person.
