How Trump Derangement turned feminist icons into mullah defenders.
For decades, the American Left’s loudest voices on women’s issues styled themselves as fearless guardians of peace and equality. They chained themselves to fences at nuclear bases, waved “No Nukes” signs during the Reagan years, and lectured the rest of us about the patriarchy while demanding the Equal Rights Amendment and unfettered abortion. Jane Fonda, the original celebrity activist, was at the forefront—Vietnam-era traitor turned fitness-video feminist turned Trump-hating scold. These women claimed moral high ground on nuclear proliferation and women’s rights.
Then Donald Trump happened.
The moment Trump descended the golden escalator in 2015, something snapped. Suddenly, the same women who once warned that Ronald Reagan’s defense buildup would end civilization found themselves marching in pink hats, screaming about “p---- grabs,” and declaring the 45th president a greater threat than any foreign dictator. Their feminism didn’t evolve; it mutated into a cult of anti-Trumpism so total that it now requires them to defend the indefensible.
Fast-forward to today. Israel and the United States have finally done what sane people have long demanded: crippled Iran’s nuclear weapons program. Precision strikes have turned enrichment facilities into smoking craters, setting back the ayatollahs’ apocalyptic bomb by years. Any rational feminist should be cheering. Iran’s regime is the planet’s leading sponsor of terror, executes women for “improper hijab,” and has openly vowed to wipe Israel off the map. Destroying its nuclear capability should be a victory for every woman who values her own skin.
Instead, the former nuclear freeze crowd is in the streets protesting the destruction of the Iranian nuclear program. Leading the charge? Jane Fonda herself.
Welcome to the age of the Karens for Khamenei.

Karens just looking for any reason to scold.
It amazes me women will support a religion that treats them like baggage and they will defend not deporting illegal aliens who will target them or their daughters for rape and murder.

It’s all about feelings. If you can convince these idiots that a particular stance shows that they are both virtuous and intelligent, they will line up for that.
The 19th was such a mistake.
Some people just need to be angry. Their lives don’t work like they thought or, meh, who cares why. They just want to be miserable. They need to be fueled by the constant grievance.
Yesterday? Support Ukraine!!! Send troops. Send arms!! Who cares about war!!! Putin is an evil dictator who must die!!
Today? It’s back to hating war. It’s back to supporting dictators
Actually, it’s about survival. Arab women are dependent on their husbands for existence.
It started even before Trump. I remember in the late 90s, sitting in on a “Feminist” meeting where they were extolling the virtues of wearing a burka. The selling point was that it made women formless and non-sexual.
Good article. Thanks for posting.
If you can force yourself to watch 10 minutes of MS Now without going insane, you’ll begin to understand how this can happen. Trump is portrayed as an evil demon who would rape a woman if he was left alone in a room with her. Who laughs when he imagines evicting poor people from their homes. And when they talk about any foreign dictator, they whitewash them with a veneer of respectability as if they are talking about any elected foreign leader. The Ayatollah Khamenei (the dead one or the new one) is portrayed as the official elected leader of his country who is bravely standing up against US imperialism. Which is made all the worse with Trump in charge. Low IQ Karens believe it all.
Satan in the Garden of Eden was surprised how easy they were to fool too.
As usual.
That is how ignorant those lefty females are.
It is so easy to protest Trump.
Nobody will shoot you, hang you from crane or throw you from Empire State Building!
Actors are professional liars. That is what they do for a living. And Fonda is one of the biggest and best liars. She has made a career out of it. The problem with liars like her trying to pass their morals onto us is that they only have bad morals. So that is the sh*t they shovel.
Would any of them mind wearing a hijab? What about not being able to drive? How bout having to walk six feet behind a man?
They wouldn’t even be allowed to spew the crap they do know in Iran. They would be raped and tortured.
Khamenei gave a fatwa that legitimized the molestation of infants for sexual pleasure.
In Sweden, in response to the multiple rapes committed by migrants, that was flipped on its head. "Did you see how she was dressed? She forced that poor muslim man to rape her!"
An AI garbage post. Jane, who is despicable and a traitor, does not support the abuse of women, but she does align herself with Tucker and the rest of the rabid anti-war far right and far left. You can be anti war with Iran and not be a supporter of child molesting Muslims. Jane has some good company right here on FR.
Let’s make no mistake or claim moral high ground on defending women. We are bombing Iran for attacking us and our ally Israel, and as a way of separating China from a ME outpost. That we are crushing an evil regime is a bonus.
Pfft. To be fair, us men didn't come out all that well in that one, either.
Eve only needed a smooth convincing snake to get her to break God's law he laid down.
All we men required was a pretty face and a nice body promising us sex...
Your post. Exactly.
