It’s not supposed to be in-depth analysis. It’s a cartoon. It does a good job of calling pointing out a set of problems, injustices, faced by a majority of citizens.

Non white Barbie needs more work to look non white. Also there needs to be an Arab Barbie for Obama to drone and an Afghan Barbie for him to pay and militarily support brutal tribal warlords to “liberate”. But then I suppose they’re just “folk”.

Good thing that conservatives can’t do statistics. It helps them believe the garbage they have to believe to be a conservative. (It turns out that if you study these things, you can control for variables such as entering the work force late, having children, etc., and women STILL earn a lot less than men for the same jobs. It’s called “sexual discrimination.”)
