Who are haters
The word "hater" comes from the English hate, which means "hate." There is no word in Russian that is similar in meaning to it. Haters are people who openly express hostility towards a person, book, film, series, song, or even creativity in general, but at the same time act aggressively, pushing interlocutors to conflict. As a rule, haters cannot give suitable arguments to confirm their point of view. In an extreme case, they can not only express a negative opinion about something, but also, in addition, threaten a person who does not please them with violence, slander him and use other similar tricks.
In order to better understand the meaning of the word "hater", it should be noted that in most cases the reason for the aggression of such people is not so much the desire to throw out negative emotions without any reason as envy, anger caused by someone else's success. Many haters are unhappy that someone was able to achieve recognition and fame, while they themselves were not able to do it.
In some cases, haters are people who rightly and fairly criticize someone’s work. Especially often this word is used by young "creators" who have not yet achieved any success and are too painful to respond to any comments addressed to them. In fact, this use of the term is not entirely true. With the same success, one can be called the envious of an experienced and successful writer who gives valuable advice to the graphomaniac.
