Why are Jesuits hated?

I never heard that the Jesuits were "hated". I know that the Jesuits were not welcome in protestant England, and Henry VIII, and his daughter, Elizabeth I, tortured and killed them as fast as they could find them. There was some rivalry in the East between the Franciscan and Dominican Missions, and the Jesuits, but nothing that I know of that amounted to hate. In the 18th century the Jesuits were suppressed by the Holy Father due to political pressure from various nations who were trying to maintain religion as a national interest, while the Jesuits were seen as international.
