    I don’t know. My native tongue is French. Sycophants in French means spy or inside informer. But we rarely, if ever, use that word.

    In English it has another meaning. I had to look it up.

      Maybe because an up-vote is - hands raising and down-vote is - hands down. Some things are hard to convey via internet messaging.

      mon ami, et-tu sur? I’m finding no reference to it at all.
