When did Hollywood become really liberal?

[Beet]

dead0man is correct. 'art' as it is interpreted in the West (e.g., a creative endeavor in which originality and imagination are rewarded, and whose ends stop at aesthetic pleasure) is inherently liberal. Even capitalistic. Illiberal states have a different conception of art, or else strictly subordinate art to something else, artistic creation when it does happen being a means to some other ends.
