A proxy beef is when you dislike someone not because they did something to you, but because your friend has a problem with them. For example, if you dislike John Smith because he insulted your friend Amanda, then you have a proxy beef with John.
Proxy beef is a compound term that combines the term beef with the word proxy. A proxy, of course, is a person who is authorized to act for another in some capacity. In the case of a proxy beef, the action you're authorized to take is hating the person who angered your friend. (Because how dare they.)
