hatemonger

Spreader of intolerance

A hatemonger is someone who deliberately stirs up hatred, prejudice, or hostility toward particular groups—typically through inflammatory speech, propaganda, or media.

The term is accusatory, implying calculated provocation rather than mere bigotry: The radio hatemonger built his audience by demonizing immigrants.
