A new Twitter trend was born following claims by right-wing provocateur and Fox News host Tomi Lahren that someone recently called her "Nazi Barbie." Both the phrase and the hashtag #NaziBarbie went viral as scores of Twitter users mocked her for the claim.
The "Nazi Barbie" comment was just one of several incidents of abuse Lahren claimed to have recently suffered in an interview on the Fox Across America show on Fox Radio.
Lahren referenced another of those incidents, in which someone threw things at her, in a snarky tweet she posted Monday that contained a recording of the interview.
If you\u2019re gonna throw things at me at least don\u2019t suck at it https://radio.foxnews.com/2021/05/10/tomi-lahren-a-girl-tried-to-throw-eggs-at-me-its-only-going-to-get-worse/\u00a0\u2026— Tomi Lahren (@Tomi Lahren) 1620680618
During her chat with the show's host Jimmy Failla, Lahren claimed a man called her "Nazi Barbie" while accusing her of bigotry against Native Americans.
"Yesterday, I had a grown man with a cigarette in hand and a mask on his face telling me once again that I'm 'Nazi Barbie' and telling me that I dance on the graves of Native Americans."
The criticism was presumably in reference to comments Lahren has made insisting her "ancestors did discover America," which drew widespread outrage.
Lahren also claimed she had eggs thrown at her by an athletically impaired liberal.
"I had a girl from the sixth floor of an apartment complex try to throw eggs at me. Of course, being a liberal, she's not super athletic. So she missed me."
Given the lack of evidence for these claims, many on Twitter were dubious about their veracity.
I do not believe her. Had this truly happened she would have been all over social media with the video.— Chloe Bear (@Chloe Bear) 1620771836
But Lahren characterized these incidents as the new normal in "liberal" America, and she laid the blame at the feet of Democratic Representative Maxine Waters for calling for Democrats to resist Republican politicians' legislative agenda.
"I mean, the left has become so emboldened now that where it used to be, for me, just people attacking me on social media, now they're doing what Maxine Waters said and they're getting more confrontational because they believe they have this free pass. And I'm concerned it's only going to get worse, for all of us."
It was the "Nazi Barbie" claim that stuck most firmly on Twitter.
It was definitely not because people were feeling sympathetic towards Lahren.
Tomi Lahren is upset that she can\u2019t go out in public without people calling her a Nazi Barbie.\n\nHey, Tomi, have you considered not being a Nazi Barbie?— Middle Age Riot (@Middle Age Riot) 1620790908
I feel so sorry for those poor innocent eggs who valiantly gave their lives to embarrass Nazi Barbie.https://twitter.com/realTuckFrumper/status/1392243576000688128\u00a0\u2026— Joey JoJo Jr. Shabadoo (@Joey JoJo Jr. Shabadoo) 1620790120
Tomi Lahren has spent yeras insulting everyone even an inch to the left of her & now she's getting what she put out.\n\nPerhaps she could have avoided that by not being Nazi Barbie!pic.twitter.com/FFh7FQWTfw— Melani Taylor\ud83c\udf0a\ud83d\ude37\ud83d\udcaa\ud83e\udd42 (@Melani Taylor\ud83c\udf0a\ud83d\ude37\ud83d\udcaa\ud83e\udd42) 1620803939
IDK if "Nazi Barbie" is really a fair way to describe ToeJam Larynx.\n\nThe Nazi part, sure...but Barbie was a highly-skilled woman with several real jobs, so...— DP'd by Moderna (@DP'd by Moderna) 1620791056

A girl from a 6th floor apartment tried to throw eggs at her? Maybe it was just a kid screwing around being an obnoxious kid. Was it really aimed at her? Did she run up stairs to 6th floor & confirm her political affiliation? Is it just another whining republican playing victim?— J. Lombar (@J. Lombar) 1620773024
Others pointed out it's not exactly easy to know to whom exactly "Nazi Barbie" refers to nowadays.
You know that the GOP is in trouble when you see "Nazi Barbie" trending and you immediately think "Gee, I wonder whom they are talking about."pic.twitter.com/SG9GxpFyvQ— Rafi Omar (@Rafi Omar) 1620789988
I saw Nazi Barbie trending and I wasn\u2019t sure if it was about Kayleigh McEnany, Ivanka trump, or Tomi Lahren. So I placed a little wager with myself that it was Tomi Lahren and I was right! What do I win?? So many Nazi Barbies, so little time.— \ud83d\udc80 Scary Larry \ud83d\udc80 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\udf0a\u270a\ud83c\udffb\ud83d\uddfd (@\ud83d\udc80 Scary Larry \ud83d\udc80 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\udf0a\u270a\ud83c\udffb\ud83d\uddfd) 1620789911
If you saw "Nazi Barbie" trending this morning and you weren't sure if it was going to be in reference to Tomi Lahren, Kayleigh McEnany, Lauren Boebert, or MTG...you're not alone.— Rex Zane \ud83c\udff4\u200d\u2620\ufe0f (@Rex Zane \ud83c\udff4\u200d\u2620\ufe0f) 1620822403
Lahren has a long history of making inflammatory statements on the air, from calling Black Lives Matter "the new KKK" to saying in 2018 the highlight of her Thanksgiving was watching migrants, including children, be tear-gassed at the Mexican border.
