Please don't take HN threads into nationalistic flamewar. This topic is flammable enough as it is.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and sticking to the rules when posting here, we'd be grateful. They include:

"Eschew flamebait. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive."

gentle reminder that in China currently if you want to create audiovisual fiction you cannot portrait an extramarital affair that ends well. There are about a bazillion such rules.

Also I'm unsure what that has to do with the American Empire, does Darpa and the military run on Dr Seuss comics?

...because China has such a open, free culture?

This take feels pretty left field, to be honest.
