baysplaining

A Baysplainer can be characterized as someone who didn’t grow up in the Bay Area (probably not even California), most likely works in tech, eats at “hole in the wall” restaurants (I.e. restaurants that used to actually be a hole in the wall, but was taken over by a new Asian/fusion spot), considers themselves a “foodie”, most likely lives in the City or Oakland, goes to Outside Lands, wears their work badge to the bars, and so on.

A Baysplainer tends try to explain to a local “the best parts of the Bay”, the local community, etc., and doesn’t realize the impact they may have had on the local community by moving here and thus, affecting the job market, housing market, influencing the quick rise of gentrification, etc.

I was talking to someone who works in tech and they started Baysplaining about what the Bay Area is like.

tanksplaining

"Tanksplaining" is when tankies "mansplain" to Soviet Union Survivors and their descendants that they're "spreading Nazi propaganda" and they didn't really suffer under the authoritarian regime.

"The Soviet Union waited for the Warsaw uprising to end before marching in like martyrs and then sent my grandparents and many others who fought the Nazis off to the Gulag camp."

"Have you considered your grandparents are just spreading Nazi propaganda?"

"Please stop Tanksplaining history to me."
