Figure out the specifics

It's easy to say that a character hates their race, but what does that mean, exactly?

Do they hate other members of their race? Do they hate their cultural tradions? Do they hate how other races treat them? Why do they hate these things?

These are details that the character themself might not understand. They might just stop at "I hate Ertanthodes" because they're not self aware or introspective. But if you the author understand these details, you can use them to paint a picture of their hated.
