Nasiha-Splaining

"Nasiha-splaining" is a term coined to describe a situation where Nasiha condescendingly explains something to a person (they’re most likely called zawad) in a patronising or dismissive manner, typically assuming that the person has less knowledge or understanding of the topic. The term is a combination of "Nasiha” and "explaining" and is often used to highlight instances of superiority complex and the power dynamics that can exist in conversations between nasiha and the general every day person . It implies that Nasiha, due to insecurity issues and an ego complex , may feel entitled to assert their expertise and dominate conversations, disregarding the perspectives and knowledge of that person and maybe even hurt their feelings in the process. The term is generally used to draw attention to these dynamics and promote awareness of how Nasiha can sometimes forget she’s actually not the mot important person in the world, and there are people who are actually better than her because she’s exceedingly average. Nasiha Splaining can also be used as a term to describe gaslighting as Nasiha tends to do that a lot

splain

An unwelcomed verbose explanation.
Person1: I think Linux is neat

Person2: I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux,
is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component
of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell
utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day,
without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU
which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are
not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a
part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system
that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run.
The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself;
it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is
normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system
is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux"
distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Person1: You didn't have to splain it. I know already. I just don't care.
