just saw a post on ig that said “thank god oppenheimer and Barbie came out during the strike bc now snl can’t make a barbenheimer sketch” and they are so right
I will never forgive mattel for not letting earring magic ken keep his mesh shirt and cock ring necklace in the movie
truly unforgivable
“barbie is anti-men”
Greta Gerwig perfectly showed how even men suffer unter the patriarchy when at the end of the movie, ken realised that during his destruction of Barbieland and building Kendom he wasn’t happy nor did he properly grasp the concept of a patriarchal rule—it didn’t make sense to him (as he had never seen or heard about it in Babrieland), he was only influenced by seeing it happen in the real world, thinking that it would only benefit him but at the end he finally realised that even if the system might put him out on top, he still couldn’t find his own purpose because really, patriarchy is not about raising one above, it’s about the oppression of others, no one can thrive in a society like that.
