Today, as the directionality of hatred points inward and outward simultaneously, intensifying the emotions of hatred, this study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the phenomenon of ‘self-other hatred’ – a problem of self-hatred projected onto others - reinforced within internet community discourse. To achieve this goal, this paper collects online discourse surrounding the internet community’s use of the online metaphor ‘Chung’ and examines the relationship between metaphor, emotion, and cognition from a cognitive semantics perspective. It also examines the specificity of the internet community discourse context, characterized by the ‘contamination principle,’ and analyzes the mechanism of the reproduction of ‘charged hatred metaphors’ as a form of ‘interaction ritual’ perspective. The analysis reveals that various discourses involving the term ‘Chung’ embody the ideology of ‘extreme meritocracy,’ evaluating individuals based on a dichotomous standard of success and failure, which is determined by material conditions such as educational discrimination, appearance discrimination, regional discrimination, and economic discrimination. This evaluation often leads to the marginalization (discrimination) of those who do not succeed and stigmatizes them as failures (losers). Individuals facing failure or disappointment feel hatred toward the others who created this situation as they experience feelings of inferiority, shame, and humiliation. However, they ultimately experience the paradoxical situation of ‘self-hatred projected onto others.’ The feedback process of ‘self-other hatred’ is repeated and intensified within the norms that categorize success and failure within. As a result, individuals isolated (buried) within this process unhesitatingly pour out narratives of ‘suicide or murder,’ such as ‘I’d rather die’ or ‘I want to kill everyone,’ within internet discourse spaces. A society where the emotions of self-other hatred are reproduced exacerbates the existential emptiness of individuals, closing off their future. To overcome this, our society must advocate for fundamental changes in the life patterns of neoliberalism, which evaluates only material success as praiseworthy. Through this, we should move towards a society of inclusion and support where differences are not stigmatized as discrimination and individuals can rise again even in the face of failure.
