how many foreign movies are in your theatre?

During any given year? Far more than the eight or whatever the CCP has decreed they'll let in. But, more importantly, the lack of foreign films in a US theater is due to market forces, not government fiat.

There's no such thing as an actual free market, so you might want to adjust your standards so you aren't measuring real countries against a fantasy.

Or maybe you can stop running around with the goal posts while pretending that China's markets are comparable to the US's, or that free speech in China has the same characteristics as free speech in the US.

Also, of course this is being ignored by bigger outlets. Is crime against trans people being mostly ignored by the media a new occurrence to you?

Which is a patently absurd allegation for countless reasons, not the least of which being that crimes against LGBT individuals very frequently garner mainstream media attention even when the claims aren't necessarily well-supported, along with the fact there are a lot of crimes against cisgendered persons that get no coverage at all. The only reason there was any investigation or coverage around Gabby Petito was because social media detectives took up the case. Before that, cops and the mainstream media were content with literally letting her boyfriend get away with murder -- and why charges were never brought against the boyfriend's family for their role in covering up the crime when, at a bare minimum, they were accessories after the fact.
