In my case I've hated Harry Potter, skinny jeans and Tesla long before that became popular to do.

I hated Donald Trump in the '80s already. I thought he was a dishonest blowhard and was amazed that anybody believed anything that came out of his mouth.

I hated Elon Musk from pretty much the moment he showed up as the "darling awkward little geek bro". He always struck me as inauthentic and a little bit stupid. (I was wrong on that last point, mind. He's a lot stupid.)

When they hyped him up in the first Iron Man movie as some super-intelligent philanthropist I really started to hate that guy.
