Revilers, noun [plural]: individuals who engage in abusive and offensive language towards others.
Revilers are people who habitually use derogatory and insulting words or behavior to belittle, criticize, or verbally attack others. They display a consistent pattern of verbally abusing individuals or groups, actively seeking opportunities to provoke anger, upset, or humiliate others. Revilers often employ rude, offensive, or mocking language, aiming to demean and degrade their targets.
Their choice of words may include insults, profanity, derogatory terms, and slanderous remarks, which can be deeply hurtful and damaging to the recipients. Revilers tend to be motivated by malicious intent, intentionally inflicting emotional pain on others to boost their own ego or to exert power over them.
Revilers can be found in various contexts, including in-person interactions, social media platforms, or online forums. Their behavior is generally seen as disrespectful, toxic, and harmful to the well-being and mental health of victims. Revilers are frequently viewed as individuals lacking empathy, who derive pleasure from the suffering or distress of others.
It is important to distinguish between expressing a difference of opinion or engaging in constructive criticism, and perpetuating reviling behavior. While healthy discussions and debates contribute to personal growth and societal progress, revilers often cross the boundary into deliberate and unwarranted abuse, causing harm to the targets of their verbal attacks.
