Literally no governing body is saying that a certain thing can't be made anymore (movie content wise). That's a fantasy. I'm not sure I agree that there is even a problem (as several people in this thread have pointed out that they are still making raunchy movies). But let's assume, that those movies are being made less... it's not censorship, it's because the movie studios think there are less people who want to watch it.
If there is a big enough audience for something it will get made. Simple as that.
Funny to see right-leaning people blame these issues on "the left" when really its capitalism and freedom of choice, which are things that have always been championed by the right.

It's just another case of social Conservatives upset the world is changing around them, and unable to deal with it, as people come to realize the harm some of these things lead to and the ideas they represent. I'm sure slave owners felt the same as their world changed.
