Definition: a person who hates or distrusts humankind

-“I can attest that each is capable of turning the gentlest romantic into a misanthrope.”

While I was reading the article ,“The Happiest and Saddest Places in New York City, According to Twitter,” by Brian Merchant,  I stumbled on the word misanthrope, and was kinda confused because I never encounter this word before . while I was using context clues , I thought this word was put in a negative aspect and thought to myself that this word might mean catastrophe or disaster. I went online to search up the definition ,and got a clear understanding  of it. Meaning disliking human kind.
