That's a good point. I'm not sure if it's necessarily under the banner of verbal aggression and it can as often be in written form as verbal, but I will often use innocuous language in a calculated way to express disdain at at viewpoint I disagree with.
My instinct is often to look for the worst in people.
I tend to react uncomfortably rather than with compassion when people are upset.
I can lose patience with people very quickly and appear dismissive.
I often put work interests in front of friends.
