Joe Rogan Speaks Out on Outrage Over ‘Barbie’ Movie: ‘They Think It’s a Super Woke Movie’

Podcaster Joe Rogan shared his thoughts on the outrage over the “Barbie” movie.

During Tuesday’s episode of his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan, 55, spoke to his guest, singer Post Malone, about people being upset over the film and said he left the movie theatre feeling perplexed.

Rogan seemingly enjoyed the film and described it as a “fun, silly movie about dolls who come to life” and argued there was nothing to be offended over.

“But a lot of it is about the patriarchy, and it’s a comedy, it’s a comedy about dolls. People are upset that it’s this progressive metaphor for life that they’re pushing progressive politics in this, and I’m like, ‘It’s a f**king doll movie!’” he said, adding, “It’s a doll movie. It’s a fun movie about dolls who come to life and try to interact with the real world.”

Rogan also described the movie as interesting and original.

“No one’s ever done a movie like this before. This is not like anything else you could say. It was a bizarre movie, but it was a fun, silly movie, I laughed. But at the end of it, I was like, ‘How did people get outraged at that?’ I know some people personally who said it’s anti-men. I’m like, ‘No, it’s making fun of dorks.’”

Rogan inquired whether men were upset over the movie because they saw themselves in it.

“Are we going to do this thing where we put all men as men, it’s one category, we’re not going to judge people as individuals?” he continued.

Despite various men thinking “It’s a super woke movie,” Rogan gave a different perspective.

“But it’s also a movie about how Barbies are the dolls that everyone cares about, and Ken is just a f***king accessory, which is real. So when you bring these things into a movie, you make them real life Barbieland, that’s how they have to be because that’s how it is in the real world,” he stated.
