MISANTHROPEHuman Hating Button
A 1.25" button with the word ‘Misanthrope.’
A misanthrope or misanthropist is someone who has or feels a general hatred, dislike, distrust or contempt of the human species or human nature. If you think humans are pretty much rotten, if you can’t trust any elected politician because they always are people voting for people, or if you prefer your pets / trees / silverware to actual flesh-and-blood Homo sapiens, this button is for you!
Famous people with misanthropic views include Florence King, Moliere (who wrote the play The Misanthrope), Jonathan Swift, and Gustave Flaubert. Don Van Vliet (commonly known as Captain Beefheart) has been described as a misanthrope, with close friend Kristine McKenna stating that he "thought human beings were the worst species that was ever dreamed up". Morrissey, a songwriter, has been dubbed "pop's most famous misanthrope.”
Misanthrope is also the name of a French metal band, and an album by American hard rock band DED (spelled Mis.an.thrope.).
Wear this button while ignoring everyone, while going for a long walk by yourself, while social distancing with a vengeance, or while re-reading Stephen King’s The Stand and daydreaming of the perfect world.
