> “Hater” is its own word now, separate from the simple meaning of “one who hates”, just like “player” is separate from “one who plays”, and doesn’t necessarily carry all the emotional charge that the actual word “hate” does - it is often used more in the sense of mere dislike, or even just cynical mistrust.

But there’s also a difference between hater and cop-hater. A hater is someone who is always critical, who cannot feel happy for someone else. A cop-hater, on the other hand, is not juts someone who says bad things about cops. It’s an epithet used to say the person has contempt for cops in general.

The OP, as described, is not a cop-hater.

err, what’s the difference? Because I’ve seen it applied to people who have _just_ said things about cops.

I’d argue the point, but then I’d be a crater hater dater debater, and that’s just silly.
