The tendency to make disparaging comments seems to be linked to the personality trait of narcissism. For example:
People high on narcissistic tendencies see themselves as being more important than others and therefore deserving of better treatment, a quality called narcissistic entitlement.
These individuals spend excessive amounts of time polishing up their appearance, and believe themselves to be the center of the universe, an extreme form of egocentrism.
The belief that they’re better than everyone forms the core of narcissistic grandiosity, and these people often take advantage of others.
They lack empathy, so they don’t realize the impact that their remarks or behaviors have on their targets.
They pronounce judgments on people they perceive as inferior—which is almost everyone.
