Barbie Movie Stuff

Sup nerds! I recently got to watching Barbie (finally) and decided to make the obligatory post about it. So... Allan is the best character and you can't change my mind.

Hot Take

Also, the movie isn't about hating men. Never once does Barbie say, "I hate men". Not a single actor says it! Barbie is a movie that was made to encourage self-love. Whether you are Barbie, Ken, or Allan, you should find a way to be happy with who you are. Grow as a person and change for the better.

This movie has a message that I read as us [humanity] needing to finally accept that we are equals. I'm not saying switch from patriarchy to matriarchy. That wouldn't fix things. Whenever one group of people is put above another, the one pushed down begins to feel they are lesser than. This causes problems.

Ken "lashed out" and brought the patriarchy to Barbieland because he wasn't being recognized as Barbie's equal. He was upset because he was being treated as inferior. The Barbies "lashed out" because they didn't like being treated as objects and property.

When we hold someone above another and say they are better, the other is bound to break somehow. Whether they scream until they lose their voice, have a silent panic attack, or – in the case of this example – bring the patriarchy to a matriarchal society, the one seen as lesser will react.

Anygays, that's all for now. Later losers!
