    That doesn’t sound too strange. Sometimes I want to use “f****t” as an insult, but I don’t, because that would be homophobic and I’m not homophobic

      I accidentally used cock sucker as an insult but I meant it in the billionaire-cock sucker, not the way it used to be used. There’s nothing wrong with sucking dicks, but if you suck the dicks of billionaires then you’re a problem. Still I recognize how it could have been taken and felt badly.

        “bootlicker” seems to be the accepted term for people like that. But I can see how you would want an insult that’s more vulgar.
