Sounds like the edited for tv version but for Republicans.

Honestly that wouldn’t fucking surprise me at this point.

Taking bets how long until we get a “USA version” of movies like they do in China.

You already do. It's a defoult one. You don't need edits in postproduction. Self-ceneorship occurese before even the first scene is shot.

Obvious example would be the assistance of the US army in making a movie, if the script was approved by Pentagon. But I bet you wouldn't have to look far for more.

I'll admit that, much as you're right, it takes even me (not American, painfully aware and annoyed by US propaganda) seeing it in the context of something else for it to be weird.

Like, nothing worse in The Wandering Earth or the Three Body Problem than in, say, Transformers, but it jumps at me more, which is messed up, because it means that it works even when you know it's there.
