A term to describe a person who commits the
act of bootlicking. The
act of bootlicking is when an oppressed person or persons, such as the working class, sucks up to the oppressor in hopes of appeasing them.
The reason it is referred to at "bootlicking" is because the oppressor metaphorically has a boot over the face or neck of the oppressed, suffocating them, and the oppressed
licks it in an attempt to dissuade the oppressor.

Musk is just a cool rich guy who worked really
hard for his money because he's a super big
brain mega genius! He's not an exploiter of the working class! Did I mention I make 8 dollars an hour for a 7 hour shift with no benefits?"
