Orwell's Law 

It takes only so long before those in privileged positions claim 1984-esque censorship for getting the treatment for being criticized and dealt with like everyone else has been subjected to beforehand.
Person 1: This guy got banned on Twitter and now screams that will all live now in an Orwellian Nightmare because his followers finally followed through with the hatred and violence he enabled and incited.
Person 2: This is Orwell's Law at work again.

george orwell 

A genuis - definately ahead of his time and with the ability to predict what life will become like - authoritarian via a police state, with mind control being present.

1984 is a testament to the thinking of the non supressed mind.
If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
