We Hate You South African Bastards! is the second album by the Irish band Microdisney. It was re-issued on CD with the title Love Your Enemies to reflect post-Apartheid South Africa. The album consists of early recordings of Microdisney before they moved from Cork to London.[1]

The cover art was designed by the Welsh musician and artist Jon Langford, a founding member of the Mekons and the Three Johns.[2]
