hansplaining 

Stating inaccurate facts about China. Conveniently repeating Chinese Communist Party propaganda worldview. They can be often located in their ideological bubble on Weibo (Twitter copy) or other CCP run social media pages, in rare cases you can meet them in the wild in Mass Media comment sections as well as Facebook and Twitter comments.
Their meeting and support group has its western HQ on r/Sino where they're sharing the newest fake news, CCP propaganda and secretly plotting on how to take over the world, just to miserably fail every time like Pinky and the Brain.
Any rational person: "China is running concentration camps and they're rounding up millions of Uighur's, it's coming close to a genocide"

Lin starting his hansplaining: "no ,no . is no like it, you just don't understand Chainer, is vocational camps with Chinese characteristics" and continues to hansplain how forcing Muslims to burn their holy books, drinking alcohol and eating pork is a good thing to fight alleged terror.

Clamsplaining 

1. The explanation of something by a woman, typically to a man, in a manner regarded as condescending or patronizing, e.g., Womansplaining.

2. When a woman uses bigoted, illogical rhetoric, or ask questions that she doesn't really want an answer to, to "shut a man down." Usually used so the woman can feel superior to the male she is speaking with.

3. When a woman interprets what a man says, not by the words he is saying, but by what her mind "knows" he is thinking behind the words that he is saying; because she "knows" what his thoughts, motivations, and intentions "really"mean and not what he intended by the words he used to begin with, womansplain. With this ready knowledge of what he "really" means and disregarding what he said, she will then craft what she believes to be an appropriate response.
"I was trying to answer her question when suddenly she started clamsplaining how my answer isn't valid because I'm a man."

Man 1: "My girlfriend didn't speak to me for three days."
Man 2: "No way! What happened?"
Man 1: "I asked her if she wanted me to go to the gym with Marc and I."
Man 2: "What? That's no reason to give anyone the silent treatment."
Man 1: "When I finally convinced her to speak to me, she said that I called her "fat" in front of Marc."

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
