I agree but there's no need to introduce certain realities to very young children.


The movie was rated PG-13, so maybe taking a 9 year old wasn't the best choice.

This is the "new" Walt Disney, a world that would disgust him if he was still here. The "woke" society would be abhorrent to this nation's moral founders, it is the opposite of everything they stood for and admired. Today the "woke" society calls good evil and evil good.


You do not understand the concept of WOKE. If by good you mean racism and intolerance, and evil being aware of the injustice in our society (still), only then are you correct.
I assume you consider yourself to be “good”.

AI said diversity is the key in discussing woke.

Drag shows in school for nine year olds is also not a good choice but those in charge disagree. Allowing males to parade naked in front of sixteen year old girls in the girls locker room is also not a good choice but again those in charge disagree. It seems those speaking out about such things are fighting a losing battle.

I don't know that anyone ever said that it was a kid's movie.

By WOKE do you mean that it includes many different kinds of Americans, some of whom are not white, cis, Christians?


No. It includes many extreme leftist ideologies. Why do people always want to play the race card?

Not trying to start anything, but to use "Woke" is an odd way to describe it (I have not seen the movie) to me the term "woke" describes being aware of the truth/ways of the world/real history, not rewritten history to downplay things that really did/have happened..... I know it is a highly populized and often misused term by some parties (it is very misused here in Florida, by our gov), but to me it means an awareness of reality.


That's not what it means to me.

In hindsight, I agree with that. Never considered that they would take something as wholesome popular as Barbie and do what they did.

Woke is the evolved discussion topic, offshoot of the Barbie post topic. Woke means... well, aaaa, you know... In Republicanese as defined by Linguist George Lakoff and others.

Wokeness has become a tingle word... a terror term... a ghost whisp... word to invoke a vague undefined negative emotion... Latin give it authority... "experrectus"... or German is harshly commanding... "wachte auf" and in Florida it is now Law... governor, Ron DeSantis, for example, recently signed a so-called STOP WOKE ACT into law,**

Reading Romans 10:13 we are all Woke Sinners and will burn in the fires of hell... But everyone who calls out Trump's name shall be saved. Trump claims he is being Crucified by Jack Smith the modern Pontius Pilate. He claims he is being punished to save us all... Romans 10:13 in the Revised Bible, by the same staff who revised the US Constitution.

Barbie movie the original post topic? Barbie is like the doll, but with genitals? Poor Ken has ED as a result of pseudo-female hormones [estrogen like] in plastics.***
Perhaps Barbie wears short skirts to control fungal infections. She has a fertile petri dish between her legs:

PS: As Sigmund Freud would suggest, enjoy humor in truth and take seriously truth in humor.

Too bad you have no idea of the meaning of "woke". Most use it inappropriately and use it for manipulation of the ignorant.

Kind of like the Left who throw out the words "Racism" or "Homophobic" or "Transphobic" to try to negate one's reasonable common sense values. By the way since we are so ignorant tell us what the definition of "Woke" is.
