Hollywood Hypocrisy: We Say Gay (Unless China Doesn't Want Us To)

There seems to be a lot of gay couples and interracial couples. More than representative of normal society. It’s obvious pandering.
So, literally yes. The existence of homosexuals in a movie is "a gay scene" but you don't feel this way about "straight scenes."

There are way more heterosexual couples in movies, your claim is laughable.
 
China, the bastion of capitalism. LOL
No, but Disney is. They want market access in China, so they do what it takes to get it.

And, China is a Socialist regime, which demands there be no reference to gays, whereas the capitalist north America and western Europe overwhelmingly has no issue with mention of gays.

And Disney isn't capitalist - it's a business. Businesses can operate under various economic systems, not just capitalism.

Well I'm not terribly interested in arguing the semantics, so, ok then.

It's not arguing semantics, it's reality. It's in the evil capitalist west that sexual orientation varieties are tolerated. Through much of Asia and Africa, it's criminal, often punishable by imprisonment and death. So, when people ****ing tout the "oh, it's capitalism" bullshit, it sorta deserves a little pushback. Capitalism enhances freedom and capitalist countries protect human and civil rights. The alternatives - the socialist regimes, the theocratic regimes, etc. - they throw gays off buildings and shove them in prison cells.
 
Yes, following the demands of a communist country makes you not communist, but instead, capitalist.

I prefer the capitalism that didn't cuck to the CCP pls. Can I get that back?
China hasn't been communist for 30 years. China is an authoritarian capitalist country. Do you understand the difference?
 
Capitalism is bad now? We should be more like China? When you, as individual, visit another country you are subject to that country's laws. When a company does business in another country it is subject to that country's laws. Do you want Warner Bros. to stop doing business in China and make less profit?

Are you serious with this? Of course Hollywood is hypocritical. Duh.

Yes.

I would call it Fascist with Chinese characteristics. If Mussolini were alive today and was asked if there was a country which matched his ideal society pursuanto the ideals of his ideology, I think it would be a safe bet that he would declare China to be an ideal fascist state.
