Donald Trump Airport? Trump on the $500 bill? Republicans can't stop honoring ex-president
Easyreever, Sycophants….
cyborganism, Who here had to go look the meaning of that word? Raise your hand. ✋

lost_faith, They looked up a word they did not know and learned something. Are you proud to be condescending to people who admit they didn’t know something you take for granted?
cyborganism, I’m francophone. So…
SadSadSatellite, They’re large flippered dog like creatures that take over docks and harbors.
elbarto777, Good for you that you learned a new word today.
But that term has been associated with Trump and characters like Elon and Bezos for a long time now.
cyborganism, I can see why.
Sterile_Technique, 
…why are you getting downvoted for looking up a word??
cyborganism, I don’t know. My native tongue is French. Sycophants in French means spy or inside informer. But we rarely, if ever, use that word.
In English it has another meaning. I had to look it up.
Sterile_Technique, I have an extension recommendation if you’re using Firefox (and if not, I’m sure there are similar ones for other browsers):
addons.mozilla.org/en-US/…/dictionary-anyvhere/
Makes a little popup when you double click a word with its definition; and you can even double click a word in that for a followup definition when necessary.
I use it all the time - 10/10.

cyborganism, Nice. Thanks.
mPony, Sycophants in French means spy or inside informer.
mon ami, et-tu sur? I’m finding no reference to it at all.

rayyy, Maybe because an up-vote is - hands raising and down-vote is - hands down. Some things are hard to convey via internet messaging.

Lemmy users hate people learning
