Deserves got nothing to do with it.

The sentence remarked upon had an error and as written made no sense. I was merely seeking clarification of the authors true intent. Indeed the author did, it seems to me, feel that Scrooge did deserve to be hated for the harm he had done. If I am in error as to the author's intent, I am sure he will let me know if he deems it worth his time.
