victimizers
People who harm
Victimizers are people who harm, exploit, or mistreat others.
The word carries moral weight—it frames someone not just as having caused harm but as habitually making victims of others: The program helps survivors confront their victimizers.
Often used in contexts of abuse, crime, or systematic exploitation.
