Is there a noun for the general, solely negative, discrimination of any kind of group?

Is there a noun for the general, solely negative, discrimination of any kind of group?

Like, a word that encompasses misandry, misogyny, anti-semitism, the common use of both "racist" and "sexist", etc.

If there is no such word, that is a valid answer too.

Solution 1:

bigotry [big-uh-tree] noun, plural big·ot·ries.

1 stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one's own.

Solution 2:

The trouble with discrimination as the kind of general term you seem to seek is its wider use.

Discrimination is a quality I hope I have. I hope I exercise discrimination in the kinds of literature, art and music I like, in the kinds of political rhetoric to which I pay attention, the charities I support. There is nothing wrong with discriminating between the better and the worse, even though we should also be open to different tastes from our own.

The word that always has a negative connotation is prejudice.

Solution 3:

Many words have multiple meanings, or shades of meaning. The word discrimination is often used in a negative sense:

Discrimination is the practice of treating one person or group of people less fairly or less well than other people or groups.

...discrimination against immigrants.

Collins

The negative meaning is clear from the context and, in some cases, the use of a preposition like "against".

If you are looking for a word that has just the meaning you want, and no other meanings, then you are out of luck: there is no such word. (For this meaning or any other.)

Solution 4:

If the discrimination is not negative enough, what about mistreatment? This is also more active than the discrimination, but I think the word can be applied to the groups as well. I can imagine some contexts where it can convey your idea as I understand it.

from mistreat:mistreat

to treat a person or animal badly, cruelly, or unfairly:

Solution 5:

intolerance [in-tol-er-uh ns] noun

1 lack of tolerance; unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect opinions or beliefs contrary to one's own.

2 unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect persons of a different social group, especially members of a minority group.
