The censorship from the DoD goes way way farther when they can simply pull movie funding. They have to send the scripts directly to the military for literal approval, and it's all out in the open.
Sure if you sit around making blockbusters that own the fuck out of the US for a decade, you should watch out, but the CIA isn't going to drag James Cameron to a blacksite and tell him to take out the scene where the dad in the zombie apocalypse movie says to avoid the US military, or to make a soldier not swear in front of children or something.
Sounds naive to think the fucking army/CIA/etc won't censor/shadow ban you anyways.
