'''Cynicism''' was founded by a disciple of [[Socrates]], [[Antisthenes]] (444-365 BC). The tenets of this Greek philosophy rejected worldly pleasure in favor of happiness derived from virtue. [[Diogenes]] of Sinope was the most famous Cynic. In contemporary terms, however, cynicism generally refers to having a very low opinion of a group of people or action, and often doing bad things or even openly encouraging bad behavior simply because of their low opinion. Liberals have been more notorious for this sort of action, such as Obama openly encouraging illegal immigrants to vote in the 2016 presidential elections.
