The Greek word used in that passage, translated to "hate", can also mean "reject". That passage is about proper prioritization. It doesn't mean to wholly reject your family, but to prioritize God above them.
The message is identical to when your family embraces lies and falsehoods. If you prioritize truth above all else, and your family embraces a lie or falsehood, you should still prioritize, espouse, and act in truth, even if you love your family, even though they reject it.
