Truth in advertising.
 
Feel like this is close to the subject of this movie
One of the movies added was Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song which is child porn, start of movie Melvin Van Peebles has his own kid who was 14 at the oldest during filming be naked on top of a naked woman mimicking sex, in fact the uncut version of this movie which still has that scene is banned in many counties such as the UK because it is classed as child porn and yet Melvin Van Peebles has never been arrested for what is clearly child porn nor has the movie ever been decried in america,

This Cuties issues goes far deeper and has been going on for longer.

"The viewer could until 2007 see what appears to be a young teen, well under the age of consent, lying on top of an adult actress, with both miming sex. The younger man ‘s buttocks back and chest are shown along with his face. Concerns were obviously raised in 1996 along with the possibility of cuts under The Protection of Children Act 1978.

At that time, the BBFC suggested to Melvin Van Peebles that he should consider re-editing the opening sequence to remove the footage of the boy miming sex. The BBFC then received a letter from the production company and two sets of signed consent and contract information from someone claiming to have been playing the part of young Sweetback and one other part and confirming he was over the legal age to participate (18 years old). These assurances were accepted and the video released uncut.

However, the Van Peebles dynasty were continuing to explore Blaxploitation as a theme and Mario Van Peebles’ documentary Baadasssss! How to Get the Man's Foot Outta Your Ass was released in 2004 (2003 in the US). In it, Mario tells the audience that the actor playing young Sweetback is in fact himself aged 13. Advice taken from senior legal experts when Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song was resubmitted to the BBFC in 2005 was in no doubt that the opening scene of mimed missionary sex between two naked people, one of whom is known to be a minor (under 18), would be considered indecent and lewd by a UK jury. So The Protection of Children Act 1978 applied and cuts or other means of obscuring the image were required."
 
I recently read a review that concluded that all Americans (even the left-wing ones) are inevitably Puritans because they wan to censor this film, especially without having seen or analysed the film, either. According to the review, th erotic dancing scene was deliberately and necessarily shocking the point of the film into the audience, that point being understanding tha the dancing was bad and why they were dancing that way.

The most surprising thing is that, according to the review, the one who enjoyed the film the most was a devout Christian mother.

I know this is months after the fact, but I just realized something.

The overweight fat girl who was part of the Cuties group is left out of the final dance sequence while the skinnier, more "physically attractive" girls are the ones doing the performance. So for all of Maïmouna Doucouré's talk about how sexualizing kids is bad, she sure as hell put time into making sure that the girls that pedos would consider "more firm" were the ones doing the dirty while the "unattractive one" gets put to the side. If she's not a pedo, she's definately a giant r-e-t-a-r-d.

Is there a link to this?
 
Time to unbury that thread with this vlog from Timcast. Cuties really jinxed Netflix.

One Youtuber gived some good food for thoughts.

-The same people who believe cops are hunting minorities also believe only cops should have guns.
-The same people who believe adult women sexualized in film is 'misogyny' but believe it's cool for non-adult women to be sexualized'
