EN: reviling; vilification; scornful criticism
This isn't just criticism; this is full-blown 'cancellation' mode with words. It's what happens in a toxic comment section or a heated 'bardagulan' on Twitter. It's the act of verbally tearing someone down, insulting their very soul until they feel worthless. It's a verbal beatdown.
From `pang-` + reduplication of the first syllable `u-` + `upasala` (scorn, vituperation).
ROOT MEANING: censure, reproach, blame
A very strong, formal, and literary word. Not used in casual conversation.
