ah yes i love the barbie movie where one himbo is able to singlehandedly convince an entire matriarchy into giving up power to men. the most libbed up second-wave feminist slop i've ever seen
edit: also what really bugs me about this movie is that it sets up the plot arc of "Stereotype Barbie is malfunctioning because her real-world owner is depressed about capitalism/patriarchy" and does nothing to actually resolve that.
Finally, I see someone comment on this! The messaging on that was so weird. The Barie's love patriarchy actually? What is even the problem then? They love patriarchy because all they know is matriarchy? wtf?
u have to understand that they only love patriarchy because they were "brainwashed" even though the only thing Ken does (according to the movie) is utilize the power of persuasion and the marketplace of ideas to convince the president, the supreme court, and every other authority figure in the Barbie Matriarchy that being ogled at is better than being in charge.
