One may not hate good Kosher Jews.
If somebody wrongs you, either forgive & forget, or else confront him and ask him to explain himself.
However, if you see a fellow Jew committing a sin, and you warned him and explained him the severity of his actions, and he continues to sin, then you have a Mitzva to hate him, since he's not behaving like a good Kosher Jew.
Applies to everybody, everywhere, always
Verse: "Do not hate your brother in your heart" (Vayikra 19:17)
