Sony? Really? I guess the “Statue of Liberty” is paying them more?

It is about time that American companies stop appeasing the slave-working, fentanyl exporting, female trafficking, trade cheating China.

The news that Sony apparently declined to make the edits comes after years in which Hollywood studios have acceded to various requests by Chinese censors in order to distribute movies in that country. Most recently, Warner Brothers removed dialogue referencing a gay relationship in Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore in the version released in China.NR making a moral equivalence between refusing not to show the Statue of Liberty and censoring dialogue of a homosexual relationship. NR is yet another part of the problem with our media today.

The latest Spider-Man was pretty good.
With multiverse scenarios it was fun.

So Biden’s disinformation planning & control board has a new enemy in Sony. Nice. Mike Rowe too.

The government of Communist China wants to censor the Statue of Liberty? Why stop there? Censor them completely from all imagery from the West.

…the edits comes after years in which Hollywood studios have acceded to various requests by Chinese censors in order to distribute movies in that country. Zuckernerd and his cronies looked at this and thought it was a great idea.

In China the Statue of Liberty is a banned icon of the Tiannenmen Square protests where Chinese troops slaughtered Chinese students.
In short, it’s yet another dicktatorship like Russia that wants their way or they’ll throw a tantrum.

In China they believe instead in the “Statue of Harmony” which emphasizes their collectivism rather than individual freedom.
To: lowbridge
That would be rather hard to do since a large part of movie ending takes place on the Statue of Liberty.

It has also made nearly $2bln already. Anybody who wanted to see it in China has pirated it. Not only that they only get 1/4 of the gate.
So it is a great way for Sony to tell the Chicoms to eff off, get some great publicity and actually not really cost them.
It’s a very smart business decision.
