Malpathy
(noun)

Definition: A profound sense of joy, satisfaction, or emotional vindication experienced upon learning of the death or ultimate demise of an enemy, rival, or oppressor.

Etymology: A portmanteau blending the Latin prefix mal- (bad, evil) with the Greek root patheia (feeling, suffering), signaling an inverted emotional response to an adversary's end.

Origin: Coined in 2026 to fill a specific linguistic gap between passive schadenfreude (pleasure in general misfortune) and epicaricacy (gloating over a downfall), focusing exclusively on the finality of a foe's death.
Usage Example: Hearing that my old workplace bully had passed away didn't spark guilt; instead, I was overcome with a quiet sense of divine malpathy.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
