Related: Lebanon to Ban Barbie Movie for Promoting Faggotry

I’m sort of starting to feel like I need to watch this Barbie movie, just to understand what’s going on with it.

Honestly, I’d rather watch this for research sake than sit through Oppenheimer (even though some folks have said the latter has secret messages about the Jews).

Reuters:

Algeria has banned the movie “Barbie,” which had been showing at some cinemas in the country for several weeks, an official source and the local 24H Algerie news site said on Monday.

The official source said the film “promotes homosexuality and other Western deviances” and that it “does not comply with Algeria’s religious and cultural beliefs.”

It’s so funny that “Barbie Movie” is an attack on global cultures.

I think it’s true.

I think really the dolls themselves were an attack on global cultures, no?

They keep saying Lebanon has all these problems, but they seem to be doing fine, focusing on what matters.

The Guardian:

Lebanon’s culture minister moved to ban the film Barbie from the country’s cinemas on Wednesday, saying it “promoted homosexuality” and contradicted religious values.

Mohammad Mortada is backed by the powerful Shia Muslim armed group Hezbollah, whose head, Hassan Nasrallah, has ramped up his rhetoric against the LGBT community, saying it poses an “imminent danger” to Lebanon and should be “confronted”.

Mortada’s statement said the film was found to “promote homosexuality and sexual transformation” and “contradicts values of faith and morality” by diminishing the importance of the family unit.

He asked Lebanon’s general security agency, which falls under the interior ministry and is traditionally responsible for censorship decisions in the country, to take the necessary action to prevent the film’s screening.

There was no immediate response from the interior minister, Bassam Mawlawi, to a request for comment.

…

Lebanon was the first Arab country to hold a gay pride week in 2017 and has generally been seen as a haven for the LGBT community in the broadly conservative Middle East. But the issue has come into sharper focus recently, sparking tensions. Mawlawi last year took a decision to ban events “promoting sexual perversion” in Lebanon, understood to refer to LGBT-friendly gatherings.

If you let this film in your country, literally everyone will start sucking cock.
