Everything is political. Movies are deeply and inherently political, and that has nothing to do with anyone thinking that human trafficking is ok.

If you don't see and acknowledge the politics of popular media, you just end up eating cultural propaganda.

So will people go after Tom Cruise new MI movie for him being a Scientologis.

Yes? You're aware that some people don't watch Tom Cruise movies because of his association with Scientology, aren't you?

But also, some people won't watch Misison Impossible movies because they're CIA-supported, America imperialism propaganda films.

Many others will watch them, making informed decisions about the politics of what they're viewing, and even more will watch them while being completely blind to them.

I'm not sure what you think "politics" is, but I can tell that whatever that may be, it's wrong.
