The truth entices a moral society. When exposed to the truth, the dark underbelly of human nature is revealed to us, and we shed the shadow of deception that looms over us. The truth is important for these reasons and many others.

The definition of "love" here is rather vague, as OP utilizes a form of the definition that ventures past its typical dictionary explanation. Seems a bit out there for me, but it's easy to see where OP is coming from.

Native essentially claims that we need to see these truths in order to realize the true potentials of evil, as truth carries no discrimination for what people deem pleasant or not. You, on the other hand, seem simply to not want people to watch this.

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.

To be sheltered from the truth is to live in ignorance, which deteriorates our perspective of how things should be. Without the knowledge of the truth, we are doomed to live beneath the foot of its captor.

Anyway, Native's quote: "Hate is the truest expression of love." makes sense not because it logically follows, but because being capable of expressing hate denotes the presence of love. See, a child's mother wouldn't never have hated with such fervor if not for a threat against her child. She needs to have love in order to hate. The fact that you haven't deduced such yet tells me, more or less, that you're here to bitch about people finding out the truth about the world.
