I tried to tell them that the movie probably wasn't about little oranges, but I guess they didn't listen.

Appearing at Monday’s virtual Mipcom marketing event, Netflix Chief Executive Ted Sarandos defended the child pornography film “Cuties” his company recently released, to massive backlash.
The film has been charged with exploiting 11-year old girls, who are featured in highly sexual and suggestive scenes that include twerking, inappropriate clothing, and even nudity. State and federal officials have labeled the hyper-sexualization of young girls in the film criminal.
It’s a little surprising in 2020 America that we’re having a discussion about censoring storytelling,” ... Sarandos claimed the film is simply “misunderstood” and if you just watch it, the movie “speaks for itself.” It is just a “coming-of-age” story, he added.

Since its release, a growing campaign to “cancel Netflix” ensued, and “#CancelNetflix” was a top trending topic on Twitter for several days in September. A series of petitions, signed by hundreds of thousands, have encouraged people to cancel their Netflix subscriptions. Not even “America’s mom,” Michelle Obama, who has a $50 million Netflix deal, has been immune to the overwhelming criticisms facing the steaming service.

Last year, Netflix pulled an episode of Hasan Minhaj’s “Patriot Act” in Saudi Arabia after the country’s government complained.

while Netflix is comfortable bowing to pressure from a foreign government known for egregiously oppressing women, they are simultaneously eager to defend the sexual exploitation of 11-year old girls.

Republican Sen. Tom Cotton wrote on Twitter, “Like any parent, I find decision to peddle child pornography disgusting. And it’s criminal. TheJusticeDept should take swift action.

Hawaii Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard also accused Netflix of being complicit in pedophilia and child trafficking.

Many in the corporate media have jumped to defend the film, in addition to a number of leftists in Hollywood, like actress Tessa Thompson, who called the film “beautiful.”

Barack and Michelle in 2018, signed a huge, multi-million-dollar deal with Netflix.. Their pal Susan Rice sits on the Netflix board..
We wanted to make kiddie porn and we enjoyed making the kiddie porn in our effort to warn against kiddie porn.
Did I get that right??

He probably thinks that “Deep Throat” and other old XXX rated movies are the same.
I’ve learned over the years, that every time Hollywood refers to something as a “coming of age story” it’s pretty much porn.
Ah yes, I remember my coming of age days. Pole dancing and plunging necklines and really short shorts.
Doesn’t every parent fondly and proudly remember their 10-year-old daughters first twerk?
You knew your little girl was “coming of age”
You got it right.
I’d bet that if one were to do a search for “Cuties”, that he/she would likely be tagged as seeking to view child porn.
(Hint: don’t do it).
In any case, if it can be construed as exploiting children and using them for any sort of gratification, then, it is child porn.
Pedophilia, the next great “progressive” cause!

Do only little girls come of age at 11? Perhaps only 11 year old little boys come of age when in the hands of democrat homosexuals. I guess we’ll have to wait for Netflix’s Cuties II to find out.

Aren’t these children too young to “come of age”?
And ever notice that Hollyweird “coming of age” movies usually involve some kind of underage abuse or rape?
The Obammys, LeBrain, Susan Rice,, where is the outrage?

The Obama's are doing the same amount of work Chelsea Clinton did on her big bucks deal with NBC news. That is to say, the only effort expended will be to cash the checks. It's a payout, lefties get paid big bucks for doing nothing once they are out of office, hidden as speech fees, book advances, etc. Its bribe money paid out after they leave office, per the agreements made when they were in.
Yes.
Girls are “coming of age,” i.e., being sexualized, at younger and younger ages. This is doing it’s part to destroy traditional family life in America.

And just like that, censuring is bad again.
