The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has been trying to generate enough excitement for its once-beloved Oscars celebration in recent years. Viewership has steadily declined, with total viewers reaching a 20-year low in 2021.
The average American isn't interested in seeing Hollywood elites wearing expensive costumes and opining on social justice issues while accepting awards for often overrated art films, so thanks to the recent Barbie drama, this year will be different. . The film based on the doll, which received numerous nominations, is now headline news due to the faux-feminist outrage over that particular category.
The female director and female lead actor were not nominated for Best Director and Best Actress, and the male lead actor was not nominated. did Nominated for Best Supporting Actor Award. The left is experiencing Chernobyl-level collapse, which points to a perceived irony from movies to real life.
Ken was nominated for an Oscar, but Barbie was not. This means that sexism and patriarchy are real. Once we know what a woman is, we should all start burning our bras in feminine solidarity.
Losing knows no gender
Director Greta Gerwig and actress Margot Robbie were not nominated for Best Director or Best Actress for their roles in the Barbie movie. But Ryan Gosling was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Ken in the Pink Pop film that tickled funny bones and struck the hearts of millions of feminist wannabes.
Naturally, this meant to the dumbfounded public that patriarchy was a reality and that women had not achieved any amount of equality over time. Hillary Clinton, a prolific loser and former Secretary of State, wrote on social media:
“Greta and Margot, even if you hit the box office and didn’t win gold, millions of fans love you. You are both so much better than Kenough. #HillaryBarbie”
As always, the failed presidential candidate provides a master class in toxic femininity by hijacking events that have nothing to do with her and asserting them for herself. It's important to remember that Gerwig and Robbie were not nominated in the director and actress categories, but were nominated in the producer and adapted screenplay categories.
their talent was recognize. The Barbie movie received eight nominations, including a nomination for America Ferrera in the Best Supporting Actress category. But the fierce feminist movement remains unabated, demanding that the two female heroines of their choice receive the recognition they desire, regardless of talent or merit, all in the name of tearing down men and putting women in the place we deserve. I demand it.
And yet… When women are literally beaten by men, these same groups remain strangely silent.

sports are for boys
The hypocrisy displayed by liberal feminists was brilliantly described by Megyn Kelly, who wrote in response to actor Matthew Marsden's request to post liberal hypocrisy:
““Feminists” are so crazy Margot Robbie “cheated” her Barbie doll Oscar on The Man, but they don’t care that @Riley_Gaines_ was cheated out of her NCAA medal by The Man Lia Thomas.”
Where was the anger when Riley Gaines was robbed of her NCAA medal in favor of a man? Instead, the same group that sheds tears for Greta and Margo has nothing but hatred and vitriol towards Riley.
Where were and are these same powerful female voices as the Biden administration pushed for updated Title IX regulations to expand the meaning of sex discrimination to include gender identity? This rule essentially erases the original intent of Title IX: to protect and protect women in sports.
Why is there a difference in anger? Why is it unacceptable for a man to be nominated in a male category for a role in a movie, but unacceptable for a man to win an award in a women's sport?
It seems terribly selective, and that's what all previous movements that celebrated liberalism have become. It's okay to fight for women's rights and fairness, as long as it doesn't involve sports where biological sex actually matters.

ken tells the truth
There are calls for Ryan Gosling to give up his nomination for the role of Ken in protest at the Academy's alleged sexism. Like most women of my generation, I'm a fan of Ryan, and I'm glad he decided not to give up on the nomination. In the end, he qualified and didn't compete in the same category as Greta and Margot.
In any case, based on the arguments put forward by outraged feminists, theoretically fellow women and directors should have declined the nominations and asked that they take Greta and Margot's place. All nonsense aside, in Mr. Gosling's response to Oscar's ridicule, he single-handedly explained the reality of biological sex.
“…without Barbie, there is no Ken…”
Profound words from the dreamy Gosling. There is no Ken without Barbie, there is no Adam without Eve, and there is no man without woman.
Nonetheless, progressive puppet masters want to deconstruct what Barbie represents. Women are important and they are different from men.

Men are important and men are different from women. Ryan Gosling's nomination is not proof that the patriarchy is still in power and trampling on the dreams and contributions of women.
His nomination proves that the Academy believes his performance as Ken, out of all the male actor applications last year, was worthy of a nomination. However, it allows biological men like Lia Thomas and transgender biological male golfer Hailey Davidson to compete against biological women. is It tramples women’s dreams and contributions.
Spoiler alert: The bad guy this round isn't the patriarchy. Ladies. All of you so-called feminist puppets of the left.
