Denunciation is severe non-flattery. It is ripping away the trappings of verisimilitude or religiosity, like the monk's or nun's habit, from a person thought to be not qualified by deed or word to be representing the truth or be regarded as pious, religious, or righteous. Denunciation is sometimes appropriate for what a person does or says or writes or blathes, or is thought to think or believe, or how a person does any of those. Denunciation is never appropriate for the person per se. It is enough to rip away and let the denounced stand naked and shivering.
