Earlier this week, we reported that liberals like Hillary Clinton were beginning to unravel Barbie Director Greta Gerwig and star Margot Robbie snub the Oscars. Now, former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly is responding to criticism from “new feminists” upset that Gerwig and Robbie were not nominated.

Kelly's votes are down
“It's ridiculous now that women – now that we're equal, of course, and we're treated like this – 1706292903 “We deserve all the awards,” Kelly said on her eponymous SiriusXM talk show. “All the women we choose need to be nominated for positions that we think otherwise, which is patriarchy. This is literally what they tweet… “They made a movie about the patriarchy and then the patriarchy kept them down.”
Kelly went on to point out that although Gerwig and Robbie were not nominated in the categories in which they were expected to be recognized, Barbie Actress America Ferrera received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her work in the film.
“Do they keep America Ferrera down because she seems really happy to get this nomination for Best Supporting Actress and Greta gets a nod for Best Screenwriter, but it's never enough,” Kelly continued. “Barbie It didn't get enough nominations Well, the new feminists are so angry that Margot Robbie wasn't nominated for Best Actress and Greta Gerwig wasn't nominated for Best Director because, you see, they were entitled to it. This is largely what I understand the argument is.
“Best Supporting Actress, America Ferrera, who appears in this film, got the nod. And for Best Screenplay, Greta Gerwig was nominated along with the man she co-wrote the film with,” she added. “But that's not enough, you see. You're a misogynist unless you make Margot Robbie a Best Actress nominee and acknowledge Greta in her directorial role. And that's the way life goes.

Ferreira whines about Barbie Oscar Snopes
This came after Ferrera responded to her Oscar nomination by complaining that Gerwig and Robbie were being snubbed.
“I was very disappointed that they were not nominated,” Ferreira told Variety. “Greta has done everything a director could do to deserve this. He created this world, took something that had no inherent value to most people and made it a global phenomenon. It's disappointing not to see her on that list.”
“What Margot has achieved as an actress is truly incredible,” Ferreira continued. “One of the things that sets Margot apart as an actress is how easy she makes everything seem. People may be fooled into thinking the work looks easy, but Margot is magical as an actress in front of the screen, and it has been the honor of my career to watch her give the amazing performance she did. “She brings so much heart, humor, depth, joy and fun to the character. In my book, she's a lady.”
“#Hillary Barbie”
Even two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton got in on the action by consoling Gerwig and Roby on social media.
“Even though it may hurt to win at the box office but fall short of the gold, your millions of fans love you,” Clinton began with “Greta & Margot.”
“You two are so much more than Kenov,” she continued, borrowing a phrase from the film. She concluded her post by adding the nauseating hashtag “#HillaryBarbie.”
