When using "revoltar" at a C1 level, you want to convey a strong sense of moral outrage or deep-seated disgust rather than just simple annoyance. Think about situations where something is fundamentally unjust or appalling. It often implies a reaction to societal issues, ethical breaches, or profound unfairness. For instance, "A injustiça social revolta-me profundamente" (Social injustice deeply revolts me) showcases this advanced usage. It's about a visceral, often principled, reaction to something truly disturbing.
