You should look up what “defamation” and “slander” mean. They are exactly about saying stuff that hurts the reputation of people. It’s a little more than “hurt feelings”, but at its root…its along those lines.

In law they have this concept of punishing people to a similar degree. Do you know of a case in which a similar punishment was meted out for a similar offense?
