Does anyone else hate it when someone says something is Orwellian

Cause it really fucks me off, I recently saw a fox news presenter describe something as Orwellian and it reminded me of how my brother says things are Orwellian (He has never finished 1984). So I read it out of spite. These far-right presenters use it to describe things as 'woke'. They don't realise that George Orwell was a socialist.

Thought of this again when I was re-watching The Truman Show last night.
