The immorality lurking behind this question.

It has been said that a moral space exists between another person and the observed behavior, or acts associated with ‘them.’ To render the immorality of an act is specifically to disassociate the agent from the agency.

One can hate an act, which is not to say one therefore hates the perpetrator. No more than to love a victim.
