    It’s not. It’s an insult towards people who can’t be argued with, because they just love the boot.

      I see so many attempts to argue with people before the bootlicker insult comes out. At least I know it’s being used correctly and not as some kind of defense against thinking or engaging.

        I see the exact opposite. I’ve never seen it in a context other than shutting down a discussion before it can be had.
