Internal colonization 

When you believe that the white man is so superior to you in every way you decide to lighten your hair wear contacts bleach your skin to feel less ethnic, brown or black.

Basically it means you have a little white man inside your heart dictating your likes and dislikes thus ruining your self-esteem, confidence and creating self doubt about how useful is your blackness or brown complexion .

It makes you believe that why people are superior to every other race for creating what you think are the good things of the Western world. you give white people full credit for innovations great ideas even calling them genius while calling your very own people ignorant, trap queens, ghetto, bitches, hoes and THOTS.

Basically it comes down to racism that has been internalized so deeply that you start believing that your white because you hate your blackness. Or in the case of Latinos those light complected brown people that think that they're better than the really dark complected brown indigenous natives .

In the case of Filipinos same thing .

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!
