revilement

In my circle, at least, lab-grown meat was met with mistrust that bordered on revilement.

During Sen. Joe McCarthy's infamous hearings to root out alleged communist sympathizers in the 1950s, which among other things charged that the Army was soft on communism, Joseph Welch, chief counsel for the Army, encapsulated the revilement much of the country had toward the senator when he snapped:

“We haven’t seen a case like this in a long time, with this level of revilement and ostracism and stigmatizing.”

He flew screaming to a sour cherry tree a short distance away, from which safe vantage point he cursed me with every oath and revilement in his scandalous vocabulary.

The very bitterness, the revilement in solemn terms, of my early instructions, had, reacting, defeated itself.
