Liu tells GQ UK (https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/article/simu-liu-interview-marvel-barbie) "I didn’t want to make it into a big political thing" while discussing his tweet about the Disney+ Marvel series' garbled use of Mandarin. “I think there’s maybe a misconception that Marvel is this kind of monolithic, all-powerful single organism with infinite resources,” said Liu. “I think that it’s easy to allocate the blame to Marvel as a whole. If you really break it down, there was a translator that probably shouldn’t have been a translator. There were probably a couple of people in the decision-making process that should have raised a flag that didn’t.”
