True.
We can all think of scenes from other movies which would be permitted nowadays.
For example, in Crocodile Dundee, they made fun of a man dressed as a woman, apparently “transgender”. Dundee did a physical check on the guy, and determined that the “woman” was really a man. No way, with the way these “trans” are supposed to be so special, would that scene be permitted in a movie today. No way anyone in liberal Hollywood would permit such a scene nowadays.
Just waiting, to see if “objectionable” scenes from older movies, will be censored on streaming services, so that the allegedly “offensive” scenes are deleted.
s.b. scenes from other movies which would NOT be permitted nowadays.

Bill Shatner recently complained that his Star Trek opening “… to boldly go where no man has gone before!” is being censored. Evidently some services are electronically altering the word “man” to “one”.
Side note: In Star Trek the Next Generation, Picard says “one” from the get-go. So I guess that’s safe from censorship, at least for now.
No way could they make Blazing Saddles now. (Even though the fight scene at the end sort of foreshadowed Brokeback Mountain haha.)
I remember movies from the 1940s, 50s and 60s that were censored on TV after the murder of Bobby Kennedy and the anti-violence hysteria began.
Some, like THE WAR LORD(1965) shown about 1970 on TV, was so butchered it was almost unwatchabl1e.
I remember, in 1969, seeing HEAVEN WITH A GUN, rated “G” at the theater. Lots of kids in the audience. A few years later I saw it on TV with additional cuts, er, that is butchering.
Then a few years back I saw it on the STARZ Western channel with new topless scenes added which would have made it “R” if released in 1969.
Heck just about every old Bugs Bunny cartoon has been 86d. Heck... Just about every Loony Tunes has been purged. The democrat progs are taliban like in their quest to purify culture in their utopian vision. Only the profane, ugly, perverse, degenerate, destructive, anti human, anti Christian, is allowed for them.
