Morphology
usual + cocksuckery
Although 'usual' is transparent, the noun 'cocksuckery' is slangy, vulgar and idiomatic; its specific sense (obnoxious, deceitful or sycophantic behavior) cannot be predicted from the literal parts 'cock' + 'suck'. A B1 learner who knows the constituent words would likely only register vulgarity or literal sexual content and would not derive the idiomatic meaning, so the expression is opaque.
Etymology
Usual cocksuckery comes from rude slang where cock and suck were used as a strong insult for someone who always flatters or lies to people in power. The picture of someone always 'sucking up' is why usual cocksuckery means 'the same annoying or fake behaviour' happening again and again.
