Friday Funny: Jane Fonda: “There’d be no climate crisis if it wasn’t for racism”

Hard to top this one.

I cued it up to the correct spot, but 4:56 is where it happens in case that doesn’t work on some devices.


Here’s some bonus Friday Funny memes I grabbed in a quick Twitter search.

Anthony’s comment was:

Are you saying the carbon remover is a catalyst?

Look out Jane, nothing is sacred or forever… including Barbarella.

Racism – once a word with meaning that has now been diluted to the point of homeopathy

Her performance was pretty raunchy, even by today’s standards.

Debates have all turned into battles to define words since someone expressed to me that words need to have mutually agreed-upon meanings for a discussion to happen. Once definitions are agreed on, a lot of disagreements disappear. Disagreements where words are agreed on usually become “confrontational”.

It often seems to me that is endless tail chasing. The words used to define the words all have individual meanings to the participants. Is real communication ever possible? What is real, you ask?

JNE FONDA WENT STRAIGHT DOWNHILL AFTER BARBARELLA IN MY OPINION.

I can’t usually be bothered to watch such videos but I did feel the need to do some due diligence. For anyone else who prefers to speed read, there is a transcript.

Honestly, I’ve overheard drunken, stoned teenagers make more coherent arguments.

Thanks for transcript. Headline uses Fonda, but its Clarkson who says “ I don’t think people see that, the parallel, or how it’s all connected, but 100% true“. It’s all connected?

She has been wrong for 60 years a talent she has carefully nurtured to impress the low IQ crowd.

It must be those racist white clouds, Hail, Snow, sleet that did her in………..

She is correct. The CO2 absorption and emission coefficients are based on formula derived from physical properties of an ideal black body.
In my younger cinema going years I thought young JF had an ideal white body.
However using either is pure racism.

A used brain would be good, better than the one she abused for decades.
Jane hasn’t ever really used her brain.
Pretending to be people she is not, did not help her ability to think.
Age cruelly struck her last wisps of rational thought.

Aaah, that would totally waste a viable brain.

She is correct, in a way. The same kind of mind obsessed with racism around every turn is certain to find climate fear there as well.

Did Kacles Harris take culinary lessons from Hanoi Jane?
Very similar style of speaking by word salad.

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), a National Treasure.

I once watched an interview where he was asked why Congress all realized the dangers of the U.S. debt/deficits, but didn’t act to fix it.

His reply was: The debt is like Heaven, everyone wants to go to Heaven, but not just yet.”

At least he was honest.

Hanoi Jane was never that bright, but she seems be getting stupider as she ages.

Jane was a total loon in the 1960s and never got any smarter.

Racism, Climate Denial, homophobia, xenophobia, are the dog whistles for the Marxists. When you have nothing positive to say about yourself attack your perceived enemies.

“Where would they put the poison and pollution” is her dumbass reply to the question of how climate and racism are connected. She’s not even wrong. CO2 is life, not “poison and pollution”. What a retard.

February 3, 2023 9:12 am

Fonda is white and therefore racist, end of.

Despite that, I’d still shag her in her Barbarella costume (well, maybe not at her age)

Could we not test her Hypothesis?

  1. Locate a part of the earth with no racism. I’m thinking uninhabited parts of Antarctica and the Pacific ocean (assuming snow, ice and sea life are non-racist).
  2. Test for effects of climate change on those areas.

She has always had problems, and still does. Been married 3 times, including to Ted Turner.
It helps to remember her relationships, including Tom Hayden.
Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden’s Relationship Timeline (instyle.com)

By “help” I mean she seems never to have developed as a person without the influence of strong males. Her father and mother were not good influences.

I will not say Jane Fonda is as thick as a brick.
There are many decent and useful bricks in our world.
I would not want to denigrate them. 😉

First thanks for posting the minute and seconds because I do not think I could take listing a minute longer.

Second there was a time in my life I had to remind myself that if I saw Jane in a cross walk it was against my moral values to hurt someone.

I was one of about a 1000 workers who lost their jobs because Fonda worked to close the nuke plant I worked at.

When I joined the navy I did not understand the VN war and did not for many years. When the Berlin Wall came down I figured it out. John Kerry is an other person that challenges my code.

One one hand I do not want to hurt anyone but on the other hand I would stop anyone from hurting a child even if that means I would hurt them.

The problem with doing the right thing is knowing what the right thing is.

It is pretty easy to see that cheap reliable electricity is the right thing.

February 3, 2023 11:56 am

Clearly all the botox and plastic surgery has addled her brain, looking like the son of frankenstein these days.

Hey Jane, if CO2 is an existential crisis then YOU helped kill the planet with your endless opposition to nuclear.

You are responsible.

Now do us a favor and go die in a ditch somewhere.

Thank you.

“Jane Fonda: “There’d be no climate crisis if it wasn’t for racism””
I listened to the part where she said that and even that part where she “explains” it.
Sad that some in the audience and on stage drooled in agreement.
(Sadder still that, if really believes what she said, she’s still a multi-millionaire. Why are there so many multi-millionaires and billionaires promoting socialist-type Big Government solutions?)

They are all “useful idiots” and somehow they will escape whatever should transpire if the utopian fantasy comes to fruition. As history has shown, the proponents of big government are usually the first to be rounded up and marched to either the gulag or a wall to receive their just rewards. Because they are wealthy, does not necessarily mean they are smart, usually just very clever. Just sayin’.

It seemed choreographed, with the other oldster handing her the straight line so she (Jane) could say ‘shit’ on TV.

The set up & line was intended for the intellectual level of the audience … it worked for them.

(Prior to this, I didn’t think Lilly Tomlin was a dumb-ass …)

They think they’ll be part of the protected “elites” because they supported the policies. And then they won’t have to worry about any “lesser” people contaminating their privileged lives.
