Vietnam has banned Warner Bros' highly-anticipated film "Barbie" from domestic distribution over a scene featuring a map that shows China's unilaterally claimed territory in the South China Sea, state media reported on Monday.
Barbie canonically supports China’s claims over the South China Sea.
Yeah can any Vietnamese comrades weigh in. Vietnamese people on tiktok are saying they banned it for the 9 dash line showing up in a different scene than the one in the trailer but idk.
also sidenote: it’s nice to see that even on tiktok of all places vietnamese people are generally supportive of their own gov’t actions and aren’t doing a “freeze peaches” meltdown.
