is actually hubris.

Aristotle defined hubris as follows:

Hubris consists in doing or saying things that cause shame to the victim,
not in order that anything may happen to you, nor because anything has
happened to you, but merely for your own gratification. Hubris is not the
requital of past injuries; this is revenge. As for the pleasure in hubris,
its
cause is this: men think that by ill-treating others they make their own
superiority the greater.[1]
Can anyone refute the above?

hmmm?
