According to the indictment, Netflix knowingly promoted "visual material which depicts the lewd exhibition of the genitals or public area of a clothed or partially clothed child who was younger than 18 years of age," which "appeals to the prurient interest in sex, and has no serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value."
Here it comes, the authoritarian left was guaranteed to whip this card out at the 3ish weeks to election-point; the reminder that the "Republicans" love censorship to a greater degree than the Democrats (which isn't even true as the PRMC was a bi-partisan committee made of of prominent politicans' wives from both sides of the aisle; notably Susan Baker and Tipper Gore.)
I haven't watched it but I'd agree that it has artistic and political value.
However, the way that Netflix and social media companies promoted it one would think that it was straight up soft-core child porn.
US elections 2020 is an assault on the liberal centrists on every conceivable front. The DNC knows exactly who turned on Hillary and they're trying to demoralize them to reduce turnout.
Netflix is firmly in the DNC camp. The Obama's were signed on to the tune of $65 million for fuck's sake.
Netflix knew exactly what they were doing by promoting an art film like it was straight child porn, and I'm sure that they were behind the social media shilling campaign that whipped up outrage as well.
Wouldn't you just hate it as a centrist with mild libertarian values? An art film about the atrocious way that Islamic Bigamists treat their multiple wives, the corrosive effect of hypersexualized values on adolescents, and a need for a middle path getting censored due to Trump supporter-overreaction?
This US election is divisive as fuck and it's spilling into Canada. Keep your head on a swivel and your stick on the ice.
good, fuck 'em

What about the French production company that actually filmed it?
