discussion when you watched the Barbie movie, did you understand this reference?

[SmittenCake]

 

i recall everyone laughing but there was mixed responses 

 

 

 

 

[PrettyHurts]

idk if i laughed but i got it 

[OreGuy]

nah. these things are taught in grade school.

 

if anything, the joke about Synder is what I would consider too obscure. I got it, but I think it's too niche.

[CottageHore]

No I don't get it, explain it 

[HausOfPunk]

The people who can't understand this line failed high school history class.

[Smarticle]

I think it's too ahead of its time for certain people

[AndThenTheCocaine]

Must... not... make... joke... about... Americans...

[byzantium]

Wait, I'm confused.  What is there to not understand?  Barbie is confused why she is considered fascist because she doesn't control the railways or flow of commerce.  

[rebeltwat]

I don't get it

[SLIME]

I understand the gist of capitalism or whatever. I do not know precisely what it's a reference to.

[Princess Aurora]

I remember people laughed at that joke where I live

Yeah because that would be dumb. The writers are American.

[Nightingale]

I got it and thought it was so funny since it was so unexpected to what jokes are usually like in movies 

[dussel_06]

I don't get it. I'm not american. When i hear facist, i just thought of those 2 evil European dictators.
