What term is used for an individual who deprives others of their needs?

  1. Provider

  2. Supporter

  3. Destroyer

  4. Facilitator

The correct answer is: Destroyer

The term for an individual who deprives others of their needs is "destroyer." This term captures the essence of causing harm or loss, which directly impacts the provision of basic needs for others. A destroyer may intentionally or unintentionally dismantle resources, relationships, or essential supports necessary for individuals or communities to thrive. In contrast, the other options refer to positive roles that involve enhancing the well-being or providing assistance to others. A provider is someone who supplies needs or resources, a supporter offers encouragement and help, and a facilitator makes processes easier or more accessible. Each of these roles contributes positively to the fulfillment of others’ needs, highlighting why they do not align with the concept of deprivation that is embodied in the term "destroyer."
