Sycophancy just a fancy word for brown-nosing, is it not?
Do not either of these require a dynamic of power imbalance between the butt sniffer and the person to whom the butt being smelled belongs?
A bunch of my comrades were agreeing with me on lefty X, but a troll called all my friends sycophants. Rude! My comrades are my dialectic equals -- I wield no power over anyone beyond being correct, which sets them free in the truth.
