I hope you're joking.

If not:

First off, Sukka is not confirmed to have lasted.

Second, with Sokka and/or Suki to raise him, Amon would have had no reason to hate benders because the ones he would know the best would have been Aang's family and everyone else connected to Team Avatar, and they wouldn't do things to make him jealous or hate them. Growing up around them wouldn't create any negative feelings towards benders, because he would see the good side of it through their greatness. And Sokka and/or Suki would have influenced him with his/her/their acceptance of bending.

Third, the Equalists aren't merely jealous of benders. They see benders as arrogant power-abusing bullies oppressing them to be lower class citizens. That kind of motivation doesn't come from petty jealousy.
