They cried about Barbie empowering women...

...they cried about the Little Mermaid being Black
...they cried about Taylor Swift being powerful

These aren't little kids with attitudes crying; these are grown men.

Sad.

Who cried about Barbie empowering women? Serious question.

@TangledUpInBlue Conservatives were mad that the Barbie movie was woke. 😆

@TangledUpInBlue I'm sure there were lots of people who didn't like it for various reasons, but only the Right made it into an actual talking-point.
But that's kinda the point. Conservatives use culture war nonsense to distract us from real issues.

@BohemianBabe 100%. Conservatives hate anything that may actually improve life.

@BohemianBabe @wildland Really> conservatives? Liberals? Seems like so many people put everything through that political lens. Why are two grown men talking about a Barbie movie. Move on.

@TangledUpInBlue I don't remember any mainstream liberal politicians or pundits talking about it. 🤷‍♂

@BohemianBabe I’m not American so I don’t remember anyone talking about it except 16 year olds.
