I agree with most of what you say, but as a Dane who grew up watching Hollywood movies portraying America, it’s also a little funny for this particular part, to be happening to America.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d rather be manipulated into liking a free society than a dictatorship, but I’m sure you follow where I’m going with this comment.

- leereeves 7y ago> Hollywood movies portraying America That's not really comparable because those are American movies. Is America preventing Europeans from making movies that portray America negatively? If China makes its own movies where they are the heroes, that's fine, but they shouldn't be able to prevent anyone outside China from making movies where they are portrayed negatively.
- lenkite 7y agoAs an Indian who grew up watching Hollywood movies, I never saw the US imposing their will on Indian Bollywood movies. So no - I don't follow where you are going.
- sushid 7y agoThere are countless movies that blame US companies, US agencies, US military, etc. in movies. It’s not like all US flags wave the American flag around. This is in direct comparison to what China tacitly enforces. Good luck try to show the Chinese as the bad guys, much less the the government itself.
