  We would go back and help Chang Kai-Shek harder of course. I wonder what a world where he won would look like?

    I'm sure they're not afraid of it becoming a real technology. So, what's the "danger" in the concept alone? I'm assuming they have a "rational" explanation behind the decision. What is it?

        What if the story takes place in a different universe, with no relation with our history?

        That is surreal. It's also dated 2011; is this a policy they're continuing? Did it ever apply to imported movies?

          It’s hard to keep up with. I watched a video essay on YouTube on why Chinese horro movies are so bad and the main reason, it argued, was that the rules for what you can and cannot show changes so quickly that you want to get your movie out fast in fear of your plot device becoming banned before release

        > the fantasy of time travel – which potentially gives the individual the freedom to reorder reality – conflicts with politically correct thought I think that excerpt from the article answers my question.
