The Absolute Hypocrisy of the Movie “Barbie”

When Barbie came out, it was a cultural phenomenon. Mothers, daughters, sisters, and girlfriends wore pink clothes and gleefully showed up at their local movie theatre to watch their Barbie doll finally come to life.

Then, there was me, a guy. I was wearing a black shirt. And I visibly was upset because I realized that the movie would last nearly hours. But I was there. Not for me, but because a female person I know really wanted to see it. Also, for this site. Because lots of people asked me to review it. In short, my presence at this movie theatre was an act of self-sacrifice for the good of my fellow men. Yes, my being there made me feel like a haloed Saint hovering above the world while holding a bag of popcorn.

However, when the movie started, that feeling quickly dissipated. Because I was reminded of something awful: I’m a man. A vile, disgusting man who likes stupid men things and who is complicit in upholding the patriarchy on a daily basis. How dare I?

After the movie, I was in tears. How could I not see it? Barbie made me see the light. I proceeded to personally apologize to every woman in the theatre for ruining their lives and preventing them from reaching their full potential. Then, I went to buy Barbie merchandise because that’s how you fix the patriarchy.

Alright, I think I’ve got the sarcasm out of my system. I’m sorry, but it’s my way of coping with trauma. Because Barbie was probably the most toxic and hateful movie I’ve seen in my life. And I saw it unfold to an audience that was 60% comprised of little girls.

Some might think: “Here we go, a butthurt man gets angry about a feminist movie”. That is partly correct. But here’s the thing: Barbie is not even a feminist movie. Whether it was intentional or not, Barbie actually highlights how modern-day feminism is flawed and unhinged. But most of the audience will not catch any type of second-degree interpretation. They will take it at face value.

For instance, just take a look at the movie poster at the top of this article. Ken is sitting in the backseat of the car. That’s because, in the movie, Barbie doesn’t allow him to sit in the passenger seat (forget about even thinking of driving that car).

What if Ken was driving the car and he forced Barbie to sit in the backseat because she’s a woman? Yeah, the entire movie is like that. Let’s take a closer look at this mess.

Oppressive Matriarchy

The movie begins with little girls destroying their baby dolls because Barbie taught them that they didn’t need to play mother anymore. The whole concept of motherhood is often ridiculed in the movie.

The narrator says:

“Thanks to Barbie, all problems of feminism and equal rights have been solved.”

As the movie presents us Barbieland, we quickly realize that there are absolutely no equal rights in this place. Quite to the contrary, Barbieland is actually an oppressive regime where Kens are second-class citizens who are openly banned from all positions of power.

The seat of power of this regime is the Pink House, where there is no man in sight. The American flag was replaced with some weird abomination because the movie actually depicts the United States as a very bad place where women literally can’t. They just can’t.

The Supreme Court is 100% women … because men are banned from it. That’s the exact opposite of “equal rights” but, as we’ll see, the movie is very comfortable wallowing in its own hypocrisy.

Later in the movie, Barbie says:

“Women hold all major positions of power and control all of the money. Basically, everything that men do in your world, women do in ours.”

With that being said, let’s take a look at the actual Supreme Court of the United States.

Let’s count together. Five men and four women. Why did you lie Barbie?

Yeah, but what about money? Here’s the Managing Director of the IMF, the most powerful financial institution in the world.

The Managing Director of the IMF – Bulgarian economist Kristalina Georgieva. Prior to her was Christine Lagarde, another woman.

In Barbie, these powerful women do not exist because they do not fit the “oppressed by the patriarchy” narrative. Women can only be victims and men can only be jerks.

Speaking of men, in Barbieland, they are badly mistreated. On several occasions, they are blatantly told to shut up. Also, they are severely emasculated – physically and mentally.
