Some of the jokes were ok, mostly its messaging felt like what an out of touch liberal thinks feminism sounds like.

Lost it when they defeated the patriarchy by vote-ing harder than anyone has ever done before.

Also, this has got to be the first movie I've seen that is pro-voter disenfranchisement.

The two Kens unaffected by the patriarchy being shitty queer stereotypes annoyed me but not sufficiently that I wasn't like soypoint-1 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 soypoint-2 at one of them being Rob Brydon.

Absolutely, I think you're right in that the movie is still fundamentally out of touch liberal feminism but perhaps I'm a bit kinder to it than you are. Certainly assuming that "natural" state of patriarchy is a major flaw with how all liberals think; nothing is ever historicised, nothing was ever created or evolved, it's always been like this and therefore to change anything is difficult, oft times inconceivable. To admit the patriarchy was made is to admit it can and will be unmade, and that it is propped up by centuries, millenia even, of violence, violence almost enitely absent in the movie. Granted, at the end of the day it's just a long ad for a toy anyway.
