Yup, just take the knee, don't maintain any artistic integrity.

Regardless of people's political views on China's Government and their forced labor camps, the episode should be allowed to air on any platform.

I honestly don't get why we're regressing back to the 60's & 70's where society and businesses are both equally scared of allowing any kind of controversial content in their entertainment products? Sometimes it can give in this case a TV Show some substance, therefore improving the quality of the Show.

I swear that in 20 years time that Paw Patrol will be the high brow Show, because nothing is allowed to be expressive anymore without some idiot corporation or individual trying to censor it.

all sorts of stuff is dropped for a china audience. Any company with a significant chinese presence does the same. It's better to get some content in there than none

its all about cash at the end of the day, Queen Bey did a private gig in Dubai, then went on to thank the Queer community at the Grammys for their support you couldn't make it up the twisting and turning in the name of greed
