Blame game interpretation ... The Americans are swinging towards autocracy as evident in the wide "red bed"map clearly showed. Now they are lying in it. Truth!
Well, if he's white? You are correct. But only right to a small fraction. Since white people protecting white privilege in one area. Means they're helping to protect it in all others where white people are the majority. And with that. Now i'll be roundly ignored/dismissed. lol
We all do. People have conveniently forgotten that the only reason Biden became president is because Black America voted for the candidate white America would find most acceptable.
that and also for the economic factors (trump obviously fumbled the economy and the like during the pandemic). probably bred similar conditions amongst people who followed the “oh, well kamala isn’t as bad” mentality.
Sadly, I bet there’s a conservative somewhere who used the Barbie movie as proof that we need trump back. You know, we were warned for decades about how bad our educational system is and then we let W Bush ‘fix’ it?
Then again, a generation of young men watched Full Metal Jacket and got inspired to join the Marines...maybe we need to quit thinking we live in a world where mass audiences get subtlety.
I was sitting in a marine corps recruitment office in May of 2001 getting ready to literally sign my life away, and they had Full Metal Jacket playing in the office. I thought, “what the fuck am I doing here?” And I walked out while my recruiter was in the bathroom.
I remember when that film came out, and don't remember much about it other than it was horrific and certainly not inspirational for joining the military.
Top Gun and Officer and a Gentleman were more inspiring that way.
You're the second person on here to say this within 24 hours ( in my timeline, admittedly) and I think spoonfed means ' as a reality show arc' or on OANN.
The press, post election, there must be some normal reason why this or that happened during the election. It must be the economy, current admin, or policies. We can fit our thesis to graphs of the results.
I once blamed my speeding ticket on being a product of my generation watching Dukes of Hazzard, Starsky & Hutch & Evil Knievel. Even I still can’t make the math work on this one.
Oh, it makes sense if you acknowledge that there was a Black woman president in the movie and DonOld has activated the misogyny and racism. At least in a way it makes sense. It was supposed to be about empowering women (but too much was about Ken).
Despite Ken’s arc being about him having to accept himself and accept Barbie for who she is. Both end up accepting themselves in the end when all is right in the world. Nobody gets hurt.
I didn't mean it made sense, I meant i can see how someone could make the stretch. I don't think there are any good excuses other than racist and misogyny.
People will try to blame lots of things but in reality it's not that important. What matters is coming together and resisting corruption and fascism. We must not be divided and conquered.
Yeah, the brilliant mind of Matt Gaetz started that shit before the election to reach young men. Guess what? It worked. He also won his district again.
Maga will absolutely believe anything!
Years ago a guy told me that he'd stopped watching television because there were too many strong women on it. At the time I thought "nutter". Looking back, I think it was a very early sign!
Some things have improved over the generations, but other things haven't changed one bit & may have gotten even worse, because tiny, inconsequential man-boys feel threatened. We are going to have to force it, but it's hard when there are obtuse, ignorant women who would hold us back out of fear.
I'm so lucky, my mother was raised in the 50's by a farming couple who firmly believed that their kids should be treated equally, regardless of gender. It's become so polarised it makes my brain hurt. Can't entirely blame upbringing though, education and media play a part
To be fair, my mother could change a tyre but she was quite lazy and had great legs 😂😂😂
I get sick of it too, I just want to slap people 90% of the time
I can see ALIEN and ALIENS having a more detrimental impact. I mean, it does seem as though the aliens are attracted to women, and a woman president means an imminent alien invasion. About the same level of derangement, I suppose.
Somehow, the evil one lowered 51% of the population's IQs by like 30. So now they're unabashed racists and really really stupid. If I wasn't a Pagan I might think he actually is the antichrist. (Has anyone checked the back of his head for 666?)
I live in England and I personally think America weren't ready for an woman president, Trump beat both Clinton and Harris but lost to Biden, yet they were both so much better than Biden.... That's my two pennies worth!!!
I don’t think one movie did it. But as more women are choosing careers over marriage, I think men are funneling isolation into fury. Up steps a prepared and qualified woman…. Denied.
ooh, I wondered when we'd get to this point. This and the part in Beyonce's verizon commercial where she said she was running for "Beyonce of the United States". Hurts more to get a black woman presidential tease and then get nothing.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton and the matrilineal traditions of Native American tribes.
he had absolutely NOTHING to gain from that shitass take btw…
The Barbie movie was great, but unfortunately, most of our electorate needs shit spoonfed to them, and the Barbie movie didn't do that.
Top Gun and Officer and a Gentleman were more inspiring that way.
Maybe, unmitigated propaganda + psyops + unlimited money influences persuadable populations.
Also, the Barbie movie is a fucking masterpiece.
“lol, white dude with funny song.” - Dumbasses.

Connection...? Lol

Careers in punditry are built out of wacky hot takes like this.
“Why the Left needs its own Sid from Toy Story”
Our leaders just buried their heads in the sand.
But, that's also crazy talk, and the failing of female lead movies shows democrats need to advocate for more wars.
Kamala invoked a curse when she appeared on SNL and she didn't even know.
..how?
