The underlying reason for John Dutton's dislike of Jamie is their differing personality and views on life. It is why they often fight, argue, and even work against each other in various stages of their life. Of course, it's also possible that John dislikes Jamie because he's adopted and not a true-blooded Dutton.
The Dutton family hates Jamie because he is not a true Dutton. He was adopted as a baby and has only been tolerated in the family ever since. At the start of the series, the Duttons' hatred for Jamie is not obvious, save for Beth Dutton.
John said in season 3, “When he married the woman who gave birth to you, we begged her not to do it because we knew…But I guess she thought she could save him.” It is possible that the Duttons adopted Jamie so that Garrett could no longer reach and harm him.
Sheridan told the New York Times that, while Jamie Dutton's actions are definitely evil, there's some nuance to the character as Bentley portrays him.
It's no secret that throughout her appearance in Yellowstone, Beth's mother, Evelyn Dutton was tough on her. It led to many fans thinking that she hated her. However, that doesn't seem to be the case at all. It turns out she was hard on her because she wanted to toughen her up.
Beth Dutton: ENTJ
She is fiercely competitive, and always wants to be the best at everything she does. ENTJs are high achievers and this can be said for Beth.
Lee may have initially been the favorite, but Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) was the prodigal son. John probably didn't react in the best way when he branded him with the Yellowstone 'Y' after Kayce told him that he was in love with a pregnant Monica Long (Kelsey Asbille), but time heals all wounds.
We have to put Jamie at the bottom of the list because...it's Jamie. He's easily the most selfish character in the series which you uncover more and more as the show goes on.
Despite being arguably the lead character in Yellowstone, John Dutton can also be regarded as the main villain of the series.

Beth finally learns another deep family secret: John Dutton has been chucking corpses on the Montana border for years; in fact, the episode began with a young Rip (Kyle Red Silverstein), who at the urging of a young John Dutton (Josh Lucas), discards the body of a cowboy who got a little too lippy about his beloved ...
Click here for the main page of the Randall family. Jamie was born in Bozeman, MT, as James Michael Randall to Garrett and Phyllis Randall. His father beat his mother to death when Jamie was three months old. Jamie was then adopted by Evelyn Dutton and her husband John, and he came to live with a ranching family.
Kayce and John have been estranged for sometime at the beginning of the series. It is later revealed that part of what drove them apart was that Kayce got Monica pregnant and they planned to keep the baby. That is when John forced Kayce to take the brand.
She adopted a son (Carter) after finally marrying Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) in season four. Rip and Beth have always had a rocky, toxic relationship.
Years later, Beth still blames herself for her mother's death because she didn't step in to help. Even during the flashback scene at the start of the episode, a young Beth (played by Kylie Rogers) explained to Rip how it impacted her: "I killed my mother by being scared.
She's been beaten, threatened with sexual assault, blown up, and thanks to her half-brother Jamie (Wes Bentley) underwent forced sterilization as a teenager.
When Beth was a teenager, she got pregnant. She sought help from Jamie, who assisted her efforts to get an abortion. But, in order to keep the pregnancy from leaking to the press and embarrassing the family, Jamie took Beth to a free clinic on a Reservation, where sterilization was mandatory with abortions.
Beth sadly doesn't have children but this isn't a choice on her part. As Yellowstone fans will remember, Beth fell pregnant as a teen and needed an abortion. Her brother Jamie (Wes Bentley) took her to a fertility clinic on the nearby reservation for a termination.
Whatever his response to the news that Beth had an abortion will be, Rip will almost certainly be furious that Jamie's actions caused her so much pain.
John Dutton Jr. Alexandra Dutton is a British woman whom Spencer Dutton meets while safari hunting in Africa and later became his wife.
John Dutton III and Evelyn's first child, Lee (Dave Annable) was killed in the first season of Yellowstone after he was shot during a confrontation with the neighboring Broken Rock Reservation.
This patrilineal bloodline ends with Tate Dutton. (Jamie Dutton's child is, at least by name, also the youngest progeny of this family.) Tate also represents the seventh generation of Dutton, which is important.
