Evil Machine's definitions
The opposite of a yes-man. And just as one-sided and hence bad.
Somebody who disagrees with and rejects everything, even people who are on his side or things that are to his advantage. Often just because they didn’t come from him.
Examples include some of the grumpy old men (the others are mere realists with life experience), the average German (I’m sorry, but it’s our national sport), and “Republicans” under a “Democrat” president (to appear as if they are not two arms of the same enemy of the people).
