Britsplaining 

A post-colonialist mindset which makes British people mistake the global spread of their language as the global acceptance of their lifestyle.

It is a consequence of ethnocentrism: (evaluation of other cultures according to preconceptions originating in the standards and customs of one's own culture).
Example: in an international working environment, during a meeting, British native speakers explain “how things work” to colleagues from other countries.
British native management person: “You should rather have answered I AM NOT SURE to our client instead of Saying no”.

Colleague: “Thank you so much for the britsplaining. The client is French and I am Turkish and we perfectly understand each other”.

Briesplaining 

The act of SJWs trying to worm their way out of negative consequences for their blatant racism/sexism. Most notably the briesplainer will always avoid any kind of apology, will avoid any admittance of wrongdoing, and will never take responsibility for their words/actions. Another common trait of briesplaining is an attempt to blame and shift negative attention onto the target of the original prejudicial/discriminatory actions.

Named for the desperate backpedalling by Brie Larson and her fellow SJW supporters in defence of her campaign of racism and misandry in the weeks preceding Captain Marvel's release.
Bob: Did you see Brie Larson's latest interview?
Dave: Yeah, it was pathetic, she's constantly just briesplaining rather than admitting she was wrong.

batsplaining 

Bat goes on a rant about a topic unrelated to the current conversation. For example, if you are talking about a santa costume you want her to wear, she might go on a whole rant about how the color red promotes fertility.
Morty: "Hi Bat, are you gonna wear that beard for the santa costume?"

Bat: "Beards have long been associated with wisdom and intelligence, and many great thinkers throughout history have sported impressive facial hair. But did you know that beards may also be related to the space-time continuum? According to recent studies, the gravitational pull of a beard can actually warp the fabric of space and time, creating distortions in the nearby area. But enough about the scientific properties of beards - let's talk about how to cook soup. Soup is a versatile and satisfying meal that can be made with a wide variety of ingredients. To make soup, you will need a large pot and some basic cooking tools, such as a knife, cutting board, and stirring spoon. "

Her whole twitch chat: "she's batsplaining again"
