Relevancy 

A word spoken and written that conveys one’s relative lack of education and susceptibility to groupthink. Relevancy conveys no meaning beyond the properly used “relevance.” This word has quietly and hideously made its way into otherwise semi-intelligent settings like tech companies and advertising agencies within the last decade.
The relevancy of this film cannot be overstated, but my intelligence can be. “The relevance of this film...is timeless” would be the proper form of this word, with zero meaning lost.
