Twitter CEO Elon Musk has criticized the recently-released “Barbie” film for its leftist political leaning. The film, which earned $155 million in domestic box-office revenue in its opening weekend, has faced backlash from some conservative observers, including Musk.
Musk took issue with the film’s use of the word “patriarchy,” suggesting it was overused to the point of excess.
“If you take a shot every time Barbie says the word ‘patriarchy’ you will pass out before the movie ends,” Musk wrote.
Musk’s criticism of the film followed a review by Ben Shapiro, the former editor of the Daily Wire.
Shapiro sparked a conversation among movie fans when he noted the film’s frequent use of the word “patriarchy.”
In an opinion column, he argued that the movie misled viewers by masking a feminist narrative within a film many expected to be a fun exploration of the world of Barbie.
While all these criticisms are valid, the film is a steaming pile of ‘wokeness’, and parents should avoid the film, the critics seemingly overlooked one important aspect of Hollywood and ‘Barbie’.
They say a picture can be worth a thousand words so here in one cartoon is the brutal truth about ‘Barbie’ and ‘Barbie land’ that Hollywood and the media seem to conveniently overlook:

Nails it!
For whatever reason, it seems like almost everyone wants to leave the socialist paradise known as California.
Wonder why…
California Bill Goes After Parents for Not Affirming Their Child’s Gender Identity: Could Lose Custody
California’s Democratic Assemblymember Lori Wilson and state Senator Scott Weiner are pushing an amendment that could potentially brand parents as abusive if they choose not to validate their child’s gender identity.
This action could result in the traumatic loss of custody, striking a blow to the traditional family unit as we know it.
AB957, a revision of the state Family Code concerning the “health, safety, and welfare of the child,” is causing concern among conservative circles. The proposed bill, if it sees the light of the day, may lead to children being forcefully removed from their family homes should any member be seen as ‘anti-LGBTQ+.
The bill, initially passed on May 3, was subjected to additional amendments on June 3 by Weiner, a figure who in the past has advocated for controversial measures such as “offering Drag Queen 101 as part of the K-12 curriculum” and has been accused of staging a hate-crime hoax.
Critics argue the new proposal empowers courts to wrench children away from their homes if parents fail to affirm their gender. Schools, churches, and other organizations that don’t comply could also be penalized for “impacting the health, safety, and welfare of [a] child.” The potentially catastrophic implications for family dynamics and religious freedoms are difficult to ignore.

Rep. Wilson’s office has tried to mitigate concerns, stating that the bill only applies to family law and not criminal law. Yet, this does little to quell the unease.
Nicole Peterson, founder of Facts Law Truth Justice, voiced the worry echoing in many conservative households. In a conversation with the Daily Signal, she called the law “horrifying” and problematic for parents across the nation.
She remarked, “If a parent or guardian is unwilling or simply not ready to affirm their 7-year-old’s new identity — as they transition from Spongebob to Batman to Dora the Explorer — they can be found guilty of child abuse under AB-957 if it passes into law.”
She further warned, “This is a horrifying bill for children, and for parents and guardians not just in California, but across the country,” adding that the potential for this to become a national issue isn’t far off, especially if California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, decides to make a bid for the presidency.
Erin Friday, a San Francisco-based attorney, concurs that the proposed changes could set a dangerous precedent. In her statement to the Washington Free Beacon, she observed, “It’s not a giant leap–it’s a tiny step to get there.”
“We know exactly where they are going with it. I didn’t think the bill could get worse, but it got worse,” she said.
The revisions in their current form are ambiguous and raise more questions than they answer. The language does not make clear the age range this could apply to or differentiate between ‘affirming’ a gender and encouraging ‘sex-change.’
Instead, it calls on judges to scrutinize parents’ responses to their child’s gender identity.
In a further push, Weiner is also advocating for a separate bill requiring foster parents to affirm the identity of children who identify as transgender.
The bill has rightly generated a lot of pushback.
This bill is every parent’s nightmare.
