People have forgotten that Love is passionate, and you may do terrible things because of it. But it also let’s you get through harshness for the love of a greater good.
For example, many might want to murder someone like Putin solely because they hate him.
But some would seek to do it because they love peace and want a better world.
I suppose though it doesn’t benefit imperialism to think of things that way, however.

At that point I think we have to give the credit to hate as being the motivator. The love might have lead to the hate, but I don’t think that’s the same as it being the motivator for the killing (not if we’re attributing it “soley” to hate).
So I think even in trying to give an example of “killing for love” we switched teams halfway through. The love may have lead to the hate, but hate did the heavy lifting.
Killing out of hate for others alone tends to only bring suffering later.
Killing out of love of many brings about progressive change.
Everyone thinks love is only passive, forgetting it’s also passionate
“Killing out of love”???..
…no such thing. Love says it’s infinite, so live and let live. Forgive and let forgive. That’s how most understand the practice of love.
Forgiveness isn’t love, it’s forgiveness.
