Trump’s a dictator. The only one missing is Minister of Propaganda Goebbels.

General Francisco Felissimo Adolph Trump will not stifle creativity and the voice of filmmaker’s worldwide.

The quality of people in making films…directors, actors, writers, musicians, etc. won’t allow for an idiot to censor them.

They’re the voice of reason to fight MAGA falsehoods from destroying empathy and care in the world.

Pretty much, MAGA has made every country dislike America, except the censored countries like Russia and China.

I don't think anybody is going to yield to the orange menace just on the principle of the thing.

Pretty much, MAGA has made every country dislike America, 

Not many, if any countries "liked" America previously.

Not in a "Let's boycott McDonald's, Coke, Disneyland, the whole Mission Impossible franchise" rage.

But more of a "Ukraine has been sold a dud, and how many need to die in Gaza" disillusionment.

One of his objectives was to ensure there was no more "ANTI-AMERICAN PROPAGANDA"

A dictator would have absolute and consolidated power, nothing that Trump has.

Hollywood does not depend on the federal government for economic support, so I do not see what the felon-in-chief could do to hinder free speech. He will try to stop free speech, no doubt about it, but I fail to see how he will go about it.
