I do mean stuff like removed scenes from international airings, replacing objects like cigarettes or vine with any other objects.

    Some of us here think it’s backwards as well. The thing is that it’s a hard cycle to break. Because nudity is so taboo here and pretty universally related to sex rather than art or nature it ends up with any place it show up being taken as scandalous ‘uh oh, they showed the naughty bits’.

    Nudes in art are viewed as high-brow, guns and violent sport as more low-brow, but we"re also a place who make icons of the blue collar ‘Joe Sixpack’ sort and for a large part treat intellectualism is snobby elitist shit.

    Maybe one day we’ll unga bunga our way out of the caves, but nobody knows when.
