Morphology

assfuck + move

The compound is a vulgar slang formation whose constituents ('ass' + 'fuck') convey strong negative/emphatic force, so a learner who knows those words could infer a negative evaluative sense. However 'assfuck' is not a standard lexical item and the exact meaning 'a very bad or foolish action' is idiomatic and depends on slang/pragmatic knowledge, so the relation is only partially predictable.

Etymology

Assfuck move may come from joining the rude words ass, meaning a fool or the backside, and fuck, a very strong word meaning 'to ruin' or 'to force'. That harsh image of being badly 'ruined' by a choice helps explain why the phrase now means 'a very bad or foolish action'.
