Who would have ever thought that a hat and a smirk could be a hate crime!"

George Orwell figured out the smirk as facecrime,

In any case, to wear an improper expression on your face (to look incredulous when a victory was announced, for example) was itself a punishable offence. There was even a word for it in Newspeak: FACECRIME, it was called.
but even he wasn't prescient enough to see a future of hatcrime.

"The Two Minutes Hate, from George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, is a daily period in which Party members of the society of Oceania must watch a film depicting the Party's enemies (notably Emmanuel Goldstein and his followers) and express their hatred for them for exactly two minutes."

The Two Minute Hate Scene from a movie made of Orwell's novel 1984

Substitute "Trump" for "Goldstein" in the video, and you get pretty close to what the MSM and their minions are doing today.
