I think people object to the bad faith with which these actions are done:

- sharply criticizing the US on race, but hiding black characters in Chinese movie posters (eg, Star Wars)

- sharply criticizing the US on sexuality, but removing gay scenes from Chinese and ME versions (eg, Harry Potter)

To me, it’s like men who beat their wife because they’re angry someone at the bar was rude — but are too cowardly to confront him, so they take out that aggression at home.

Similarly, movie companies aren’t standing up to real bigotry in China or the ME — they’re coming home to abuse us domestically, over things we don’t even do.

I think that abuser mentality is abundant among the “Wokerati”.
