copsplaining

Deceitful speech police use to cover for their unlawful act against you.
An example of copsplaining is: When you are doing nothing wrong, they are committing an unlawful act against your will, you lecture them about what the law really is, and they give you a friendly command about being safe so they can bullshit about what they were doing to you in the first place.

Cis: "Oh, nonsense! Johansson is a great actress, she will be a wonderful representation. So what if she is a woman?"
Trans: "That, right there, was the exact definition of cisplaining."
