Back in slavery days, people were taught to hate people of other races, since that allowed the slave owners to justify their actions. People considered humans as being above animals and believed that God created animals to serve mankind. So all a slave owner had to do to justify their actions was to convince everyone that some people were just animals, and could be bought, sold, and worked like farm animals.

Today, it is rarely the race that people hate, but the cultures associated with various races. People believe certain negative things about various ethnic minorities, and sadly, a good amount of that seems to be true. That stems from a culture of poverty and also from being isolated from the larger culture for so long. When you have a group of people who feel cut off from the larger culture for so long, they often form a negative culture with negative values, and they pass those onto their children. Then a number of their children grow up to harm members of the predominant group or members of other minorities, and it only reinforces the culture, as well as the resentment and hatred they receive.

Immigration is another touchy issue. It isn't about hating a people or their race, but about uncontrolled illegal immigration. It doesn't matter what the race is, if you pack too many people into an area and offer only limited resources they cannot all share, there will be conflict. It wouldn't be about race, but more about poverty, crime, sexual assaults, ID theft, etc. Then those who want to invade other countries to break the laws will accuse the host nation of being racists as Propaganda to deflect from their own malicious actions.

Is it fine to hate Europeans?

No actually it is not, it is not fine to hate any race. That is racism and it is unkind. You cannot just hate a race of people just because. You may hate one person of the race, for whatever reason, but do not assume that you can hate everyone in the race for the same reason. That is judging a book by a cover, or more specifically, basing your opinion off one person out of practically a billion. Not everyone is the same, everyone is quite different.
