Fansplaining

"Ah, I think you mean mansplaining: mansplaining is a portmanteau to describe overbearing men stating a point of fact to people with the presumption that the audience are ignorant or uninformed".. 

I'd say mansplainers are fansplainers, fans of something specific, and here is the usefulness- what are they a fan of? Being right? Fans of belittling women or foreigners? Or genuine fans of a topic which temporarily blinds them to social courtesy?
