Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has once again proven why he’s a conservative rockstar by calling out the new “Barbie” movie as nothing more than a shameless attempt to pander to the Chinese Communist Party. In a recent appearance on Fox News, Cruz highlighted a particular scene in the movie that shows a whimsical map with a nine-dash line next to China, indicating Beijing’s claims to the South China Sea.
Now, to the average viewer, this may seem like an innocent detail, but Cruz knows better. He explains that those nine dashes represent China’s audacious assertion of sovereignty over the entire South China Sea. And let’s not forget, folks, that all of China’s neighbors disagree with this power hungry move.
You see, this movie isn’t just a harmless piece of entertainment for children. It’s a calculated attempt to curry favor with the Chinese Communist Party and make a quick buck in the Chinese market. It’s all about the money, folks, and Hollywood is willing to sell out American values just to fill their pockets.
But don’t worry, conservatives like Cruz and Rep. Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin are here to call out this Chinese propaganda. They recognize that even a seemingly innocent Barbie map is nothing more than a subtle way to endorse the PRC’s unlawful territorial claims. And let’s not forget that the movie has been banned in Vietnam because they see through the deception.

It’s clear that Hollywood is under immense pressure to please the Chinese censors. They’re willing to sacrifice our national interests and the truth just to tap into that lucrative Chinese market. It’s a sad state of affairs when a children’s movie becomes a tool for spreading Communist propaganda.
Luckily, we have conservative leaders like Cruz and Gallagher who are not afraid to speak up for what’s right. They understand the dangers of appeasing China and will fight tooth and nail to protect American values. So next time you see a seemingly innocent movie, folks, remember that there’s often more than meets the eye. Stay vigilant and don’t let Hollywood’s subtle propaganda go unnoticed.
