| 释义 | misanthropy (once / 6131 pages) n Misanthropy is a mistrust of other people and a general hatred for mankind. So people with this character trait aren't much fun at parties. If you're full of misanthropy, then you don't care too much for other people — you're a misanthrope who basically hates everyone else in the world.

That makes misanthropy different from sexism or racism, which are prejudices aimed at specific types of people. If you're a fan of misanthropy, you'd better get a dog, because no one else will want to hang out with you.
