As we watch people like Jane Fonda embarrass themselves rooting on war on Russia and eager to hop into bed with Ukraine, we really don't feel sympathy.
Yes, she's an elderly fool. The woman turns 85 this year. She has aged and it does show.
But that's no excuse for her stupidity. At least someone like Cher has an excuse. Cher has no education.
Jane did though. And she had Tom Hayden to guide her and Fred Gardner and many, many more men. It would have been nice if she could have self-actualized but that never happened, did it?
Regardless, she got into the movement enough to grasp the reality of empire and how the CIA and the media work together to sell wars and to warp reality.
The world doesn't need more wars.
It does need more truth.
How sad -- and pathetic -- that at her age, she has no bravery and nothing to offer.
Those Fire Drill Fridays are a joke -- even she admitted there was nothing going on there (see Ava and C.I.'s "Media: The Jane Fonda Horror Show"). She does useless actions around climate that accomplish nothing and aren't supposed to accomplish anything.
Again, Cher has no education. She's never though about war in any form or shape. She has no political framework to speak of. But Jane did. Jane was movement. Jane was self-proclaimed radical. She damn well knows today how empire destroys and damages. Had she elected to stay silent (like she did on the Iraq War after January 2007), we'd be rolling our eyes. But she did worse, she's providing cover for it.
We don't know how many more years she thinks she has left but she's going out a disgrace.
