Hanoi Jane: Racist, Misogynistic ‘Mindsets’ Causing Climate Crisis

Friday on MSNBC’s The Beat, anti-American activist and former actress Jane Fonda claimed ludicrously that racist and misogynistic “mindsets” are causing the “climate crisis.”

Anchor Ari Melber began, “What do you think about the progress made and the progress being unwound when you look at the court’s decision in Roe [v. Wade], which we know turned out a lot of voters in the midterms.”

Fonda said, “Yeah, it did. We’ve experienced having the right to control our bodies. That is not going to go away. We’re not going to give that up. So while it is absolutely unconscionable what the Supreme Court did, I believe that we’re going to fight and win to get those rights back.”

Fact check: the Supreme Court did not ban the “right to control” one’s own body. Its recent decision simply returned the abortion issue to the states.

“But, you know, as I learn more about climate and as I dig deep as I have for the last four or five years, what you realize is if there were no racism, there would be no climate crisis,” Fonda continued. “If there was no misogyny, there would be to the climate crisis. It is a part of a mindset. It is the mindset that looks at a woman and says, ‘nice tits,’ or she could work in the fields. It is the same mindset as the person who looks at the tree and said floors that could make good flooring. Everything is transactional, and hierarchy and certain things matter more than other things. So what has to happen is we not only have to stop new fossil fuel development, we have to change our mindsets.”

If there were no racism or misogyny, there would be no climate crisis? How does anyone get away with making such absurd pronouncements in the media? Oh, that’s right — Fonda is a Progressive celebrity. That’s how she gets away with it.

    Jane Fonda is a TRAITOR whose support of our enemy, the Communist North Vietnamese led to the deaths of several of our POWs. She should have been charged, tried, convicted and face the consequences.

    She has NO, Zero credibility with any honorable Vietnam war veteran !

    First, there is no climate crisis.

    Second, it seems that women who exercise their right to control their bodies don’t need abortions on demand.

    Jane Fonda looks like an old woman panicking at the imminent prospect of meeting the children that she aborted for the first time. Very sad
