So if what you say is true, people did do just that. It's common sense that people would use an enemies list to make enemies.
except people were way too focused on defining enemies as people you solely hate and ignored every other definition of the word because it didn't fit their viewpoint. you don't have to hate your enemies nor does the list make you hate them. the entire argument for removing it was weak and based entirely on people's feelings, and because some people strongly felt the same way (note more people just wanted to rename the list instead), they got what they wanted due to being the vocal minority. it only ever got removed once big names like max teabag started supporting its removal and everyone caved in because the popular people said it
the entire discussion back then originally began because OP simply felt he was being hated by the people on his "hated by" list, and wanted to blame the list for creating that feeling. a valid sentiment, sure, but in an argument it holds no weight because you can't prove a feeling as fact. it was nothing but pointing fingers at the list and people without actually proving why or how it's their fault

i didn't use the list myself because i never had a need to, but renaming/reworking it makes more sense to me than outright removing it. i never once saw the hated by list and felt bad by it
