hating

Feeling strong aversion

Hating is intense dislike or animosity toward someone or something.

Beyond the literal sense, hating often describes persistent criticism or negativity: Why are you always hating on my music?

A hater engages in hating—someone who disparages others' success or enthusiasm, often from jealousy or spite: Don't let the haters get to you.
