Time travel movies banned in China

Movies are banned in China if their plots revolve around religion, zombies, government subversion, human rights, freedom of speech and TIME TRAVEL (in case it gives Chinese citizen ideas about traveling back in time and undoing the Communist Party of China's rule, I swear). How then was Avenger Endgame permitted in China when a huge part of the plot hinges on time travel?

China gets a pretty healthy cut of the box office (much larger than most other countries) Denying one of the biggest box office draws into the country would be bad business.
