In Popular Culture

- In the 1996 film Joe's Apartment, Joe is seen reading a Hate comic, which Ralph the cockroach chews through to replace Buddy's head with his own.

- Michael J. Nelson mentions the comic in his book Mike Nelson's Movie Megacheese (published in 2000). He claims to be unable to recall the single-word title, yet guesses it correctly as Hate after discounting Drip and Fall.
- In the TV series Criminal Minds, series 3, episode 9, a panel from Hate is seen on Penelope Garcia's PC desktop. The point appears to be to establish Garcia as an aficionado of underground or 'alternative' culture.

Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:
“The lowest form of popular culture—lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people’s lives—has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
“All official institutions of language are repeating machines: school, sports, advertising, popular songs, news, all continually repeat the same structure, the same meaning, often the same words: the stereotype is a political fact, the major figure of ideology.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
“The anorexic prefigures this culture in rather a poetic fashion by trying to keep it at bay. He refuses lack. He says: I lack nothing, therefore I shall not eat. With the overweight person, it is the opposite: he refuses fullness, repletion. He says, I lack everything, so I will eat anything at all. The anorexic staves off lack by emptiness, the overweight person staves off fullness by excess. Both are homeopathic final solutions, solutions by extermination.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
