Now Elon Musk joins backlash against Barbie film's portrayal of anti-man feminism saying: 'If you take a shot every time Barbie says the word "patriarchy" you will pass out before the movie ends.’
Elon Musk has joined the backlash against Barbie, attacking the blockbuster's depiction of 'patriarchy'.
It's the biggest film of the year and has stormed the box office with a record $155million debut, but while fans love it, critics have been split.
There has been a wave of criticism - particularly from conservative figures - over what some describe as the film's 'anti-man' agenda.
Billionaire Tesla owner Musk, who is known for being outspoken and often aligns himself with conservative viewpoints, has hinted he wasn't a fan of the message of the film, which was created by director Greta Gerwig.
'It [sic] you take a shot every time Barbie says the word "patriarchy", you will pass out before the movie ends,' Musk said on Twitter in response to a meme.
Musk has declared himself a 'free speech absolutist' allowing figures such as self-professed misogynist Andrew Tate back on Twitter and sharing anti-trans content.
