How To! | Be an Ethical Hater

Our series on embracing your inner antihero continues with a look
at superheroes who definitely don’t wear capes: ethical haters.
Slate culture writer Scaachi Koul sits down with How To!’s Carvell
Wallace for a conversation about the power of haterade—and why
“hating up” distinguishes ethical haters from run-of-the-mill,
establishment negativity. Links Mentioned:  Sucker Punch by
