For them to add that line to a map with an otherwise extremely low level of detail and realism seems like it must have been intentional. I have just as little sympathy for the studio as I would if they had snuck in a swastika.

You look at that, and think, "Ah, yes; they are obviously correct that this random wavy dashed line on this completely garbled map coming off of a part of "Asia" that might be China (or might be Russia, or might be nowhere in particular) is clearly representing this very specific political delineator China uses, that is U-shaped and has a specific number of dashes that the line on the map does not appear to have." It seems to me that a map like this is a Rorschach test—you'll see in it whatever you expect to find.
- jacknews 3y agoIndeed why are they doing this? Just to pander to the chinese govt. That itself should warrant a ban in more places than just vietnam.
