Jane Fonda gives politically-charged speech at SAG Awards: ‘Woke just means you give a damn about other people’
CNN ^ | 2/23/24 | Lisa Respers France, CNN

Jane Fonda persevered over some audio issues Sunday night to encourage activism at the SAG Awards.

Fonda received the SAG lifetime achievement award at the event, and the 87-year-old actress reminded the room, “It’s okay to be a late bloomer as long as you don’t miss the flower show.”

“I’m a late bloomer. This is the flower show,” she said, gesturing to her statuette. “Yeah. I love acting. We get to open people’s minds to new ideas, take them beyond what they understand of the world and help ‘em laugh when things are tough, like now.” The woman who is as much an activist as a star then reminded the world of her political passions, including saying she is “a big believer in unions.”

Dear Traitor Hanoi Jane:

Woke means mental illness, something you and your ilk are famous for and prove every single day.

Jane Fonda never gave a damn about any of our veterans, especially the Vietnam era vets.

F* her.

Woke means no heterosexual White Christian men and women.

Should have been executed many years ago for treason. Although the libtards would be making a martyr out of her, at least she’d be a dead martyr.

There is a reason actors in ancient Rome were considered on the same level as a street prostitute.

Here is what Robert Heinlein said about modern actors:

“[T]here seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously—after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important ... so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be ignorant and sub-literate every time he opens his mouth.”

“Care” by cancelling, doxxing, excluding, threatening, raiding, jailing, fining, firing, and assaulting, I think they missed the point.

Spent her whole life trying be one of the political “cool kids”. Just a tedious old lady trying to be relevant.

I write this as a Veteran of the Vietnam war. (Full disclosure, I was never boots down in country. In-country Vietnam Vets are the heroes that have earned the first rights to comment about Fonda, and I always yield any honor or distinction to them.)

A reasonable short definition of the word traitor is "one who aids the enemy".

Jane Fonda never apologized for donning a North Vietnamese Helmet and climbing aboard an anti-aircraft battery.

She also committed other atrocious act, including addressing our troops, Tokyo-Rose style, and other insults and acts that should never, ever be forgotten.

Recommended for anyone wanting to learn about Fonda's non-apology. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/fondas-pseudo-apology/

Repeating...A reasonable short definition of the term traitor is "one who aids the enemy".

Has this woman opened anyone’s mind to new ideas? Taken them beyond what they understand of the world? Hah.

Industrial grade hubris.

True, and I’m going to add, she’s famous because she had a famous father. As an actress, from the little work of hers I’ve seen, she’s pretty mediocre and forgettable.
