English term or phrase: (to) hate-monger
Definition from Merriam-Webster:
The act or practice of stirring up hatred or enmity in others.

Example sentence(s):
  • Federal prosecutors revealed Monday that the madman accused of stabbing five Jewish men in Monsey, N.Y., allegedly kept an anti-Semitic journal. During a brief appearance in White Plains Federal Court Monday, Thomas appeared lucid and answered Judge Paul Davison’s questions. He wore an orange jail uniform and was shackled at the feet. “Are you clear in your head?” Davison asked. “Not clear your honor,” Thomas said. “Rest would be required.” The accused hatemonger added, “I am coherent.” NY Daily News
  • When Fox News talking head Tucker Carlson began his journalistic career in the mid-1990s, he built a reputation as a smart, unconventional conservative, a stylish writer and (as I can attest) a charming lunch companion. Today he is a racist, sexist hate-monger and a full-throated apologist for President Trump. What happened? WGBH News
  • What the PM and his hate mongering supporters cannot stomach is that people of all faiths are part of this agitation, and they are not pleading on behalf of any particular community, they are simply empowering the truth. Their fight is to defend the constitution and preserve the democracy in their country. Millat Times

No  B D Finch: "Hate mongering" is used in a subtly different way to "inciting hatred" (which would be "inciter à la haine") in English. It is more rhetorical and informal in register.//It's easy to find examples of translations that ignore register or are poor quality.
10 hrs
  -> I found plenty of examples of hate mongering being inciter à la haine. Ou synonyme fomenter, attiser etc. Being fluent in the target language helps too.
No  Tiffany H-F: "Incitation" is correct but used as a noun. The verbal form sounds less natural than "attiser"
3 days 7 hrs
  -> The verb inciter is correct. And the asker wrote an infinitive verb.
Yes  Elisabeth Richard: Les exemples donnés (bien qu'étant dans deux cas sur trois des noms, et non des verbes) me semblent être d'un registre tout-à-fait équivalent à cette proposition.
