Why would any Catholic hate any Mass?

I don't believe it’s the Mass they hate although they may say so to get a rise out of their audience. There are defense mechanisms involved here and I'm not sure which ones (displacement & rationalization?). It's not the Mass; it's what the Mass represents to these people. It represents an authority that is not their own (Rome), chain of command, Canon law, etc. Plus it represents a threat to the pervasive "pastoral flexibility" which dominates Amchurch.

The same principle applies to the One Dimensional Christians who ridicule the Mother of God and the Eucharist. Mary and the Body of Christ represent (to them), the Catholic Church and the challenge/threat it presents to their own autonomous authority and freedom to do whatever they wish without any higher earthly authority telling them different. The heresy of 'individual interpretation' permits it, you see.

Knowing that there is a large group of apostolic Christians who will prove to you that you are WRONG using the bible itself to do so, is a threat to the ego. Defense mechanisms are the means of coping.

"There are defense mechanisms involved here and I'm not sure which ones (displacement & rationalization?)."

I am sure you are correct about this but it is more than defense mechanisms on the spiritual level and we have to start focusing on that level as it has been the focus on psychological stuff that has allowed the dissent to flourish.

I suspect (and this is a gut reaction) that there are graces in the universal saying of the latin Mass that we have been shorted. There might be special graces we gain from the saying of the new Mass in vernacular too but Latin is the official language of the Church ...I don't understand why both aren't encouraged as it will only bring us more Grace and we need all we can get at this point.
