Hanssplaining

When a superior human being certifies his dominant intelligence by explaining something complex in a simple matter, thereby implying that you are stupid if you do not recognize or understand said term.

Person 1: Surely you guys know about Fourier analysis?

Person 2: No I don't and I didn't ask, no need to be hanssplaining it.

YankSplaining

When a person/seppo from the US tries to teach a person from another country about their own culture; usually incorrectly

"This dude from Minnesota tried YankSplaining to me that the Blarney Stone was in Dublin, and when I tried to correct him he told me it was sad that I didn't know my own culture and that he was more Irish than me."

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.

Hatesplaining

when someone from an elite victimized class explains to a member of a majority group how racist, sexist, homophobic, trans-phobic etc they are without any evidence of matching behavior or thought patterns to support their case. They often surround their accusation of bigotry with "weasle-words" like "subconscious", "passive" or "benevolent" to soften the blow of their "guilty-until-proven-innocent" stance. Disagreeing with a Hatesplainer is considered by them to be morally unacceptable, as they are generally incapable of tolerating any "diversity of thought".

These LGBTQIA+* people in some chat room are hatesplaining to me how racist, judgemental and hateful I am. I'm not oppressing anyone! They don't even know me! In their delusional world all white men are evil. Whatever happened to being judged by the content of your character?

handsplaining

When you explain something accompanied by a lot of dramatic hand motions. Similar to Mansplaining.

It's so annoying when Jerry is handsplaining in public and accidentally hits me in the face.

A woman explaining to a man about how hard her life is. Yet, the harshness of the man's life for out weighs that of the woman's.
