I’m wondering if this is headed to something like the Florida book banning where one person can complain and an item will be removed. Turned out that a small number of people had instigated all the banned books.

The banning of books/movies/music is usually called for by those hardcore right-wing ultraroyalists who are a dangerous bunch of fanatics.

There's no sign of that. This is all central government-controlled censorship of media outlets.
