‘Barbie’ sparks scorching pink Republican backlash. Is it anti-man?
I’m mad – mad I inform you! – about the new “Barbie” movie. My anger is palpable and is deeply rooted in a number of particular issues, like Chinese language propaganda, probably, and in addition perhaps one thing referred to as “poisonous femininity.”
I’m not precisely positive what these items must do with the “Barbie” film that premieres this weekend, however I do know I can’t be seeing the movie as a result of I have to defend the daughter I don’t have from feminist indoctrination. DO NOT TRY TO CHANGE MY MIND!
I’ve been advised by noted cinema expert Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz that director Greta Gerwig’s new film concerning the traditional Mattel toy is nothing lower than “Chinese communist propaganda.”
How does he know that? As a result of there’s a cartoonish map shown in the movie, and that map has dashes on it, after which there’s one thing about China being on the map, and I don’t truthfully perceive the remainder of it, however I do know that’s all the knowledge I should be ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGED at this filth being pushed on me and the daughter I don’t have!!
I’ve not and won’t see the most likely harmful ‘Barbie’ film
And earlier than one in all you super-woke wokesters labels me sexist, I do have boys, and I’d gladly take them to see “Barbie” if I wasn’t fearful it might pollute their brains with vicious anti-man materials. (And in the event that they nonetheless spoke to me. The libs received to ‘em.)
I can’t affirm the film’s male-bashing as a result of I’ve not – and won’t – see the film. Neither has conservative British author Douglas Murray, who said on Fox News’ “Outnumbered” this week, “You’ll be amazed to listen to that I haven’t seen ‘Barbie’ the film but, and I am not planing to” earlier than criticizing the movie for selling “poisonous femininity.”
However I realized lots about this harmful movie on Laura Ingraham’s Fox Information present when contributor Raymond Arroyo said “Barbie” is “insidious as a result of feminists are taking on a doll they by no means actually favored within the first place and utilizing it as a Computer virus to show ladies, ‘Daddy is mostly a dummy or a domineering fool.’”
NO WAY IN HELL I’M LETTING SOME SO-CALLED “MOVIE” TELL THE DAUGHTER I DON’T HAVE THAT HER DADDY IS A DUMMY! She would hear sufficient of that from the relations who now not invite me to Thanksgiving, if she existed.
Earlier than you see ‘Oppenheimer’:The threat is real. Today’s nuclear weapons are much more powerful than Oppenheimer’s atomic bomb.
‘They do not need actual males’ like me!
Ingraham summed up what all the ladies concerned in “Barbie” are most likely as much as: “They do not need actual males. I imply, they need pajama boys who sit round ready for the federal government to ship them a examine, , as they prepare for his or her, , Pilates class of their, , leggings and wait for his or her subsequent, , DoorDash order to come back in. I imply … actual males are a risk to them.”
BOOM! That’s some reality proper there. I’d wager my authorities pension examine, the pajamas I put on all day or my DoorDash DashPass that Ingraham’s proper. Ever since Ken was introduced to the Barbie toy line in 1961, he has been a straight-up ALPHA MALE, clearly not some secondary, genital-lacking accent.
How dare the “Barbie” film that I have not see and will not see make Ken look weak. I need my boys (those I do have) or my daughter (the one I don’t have) pondering a REAL MAN like me isn’t the most effective type of actual manhoodness.
The ‘Barbie’ film I will not see deserves all of my consideration proper now
Actual males make their very own selections primarily based completely on what individuals who say issues they need to hear inform them to suppose. Actual males commit hours of their lives bravely railing towards films about toys. Actual males LOUDLY share their opinions on issues they haven’t – and won’t – see.
I’ll by no means know the true horror of this deeply offensive and dishonest “Barbie” film that I’m not taking the daughter I don’t must see. However I’ll inform you this a lot: I’ll by no means cease complaining non-specifically about how a lot injury “Barbie” has executed, for numerous causes, to our beloved American society.
Not less than not till the subsequent film a couple of toy comes out.
