During the Vietnam War, actress Jane Fonda traveled to Asia and was photographed with figures opposing the United States, which led to significant backlash.
Many viewed her actions as unpatriotic, interpreting her protest against the U.S. involvement in the war as a betrayal of her country. Despite the controversy, no formal charges were filed against her.
Recently, Stephen Miller, a former Trump advisor, revived the debate during a Fox News segment, accusing Fonda of “treason” for her 1972 visit to Vietnam and her criticism of American policy.
Miller’s remarks included claims that Fonda’s actions, such as appearing on a Vietnamese radio program and posing on an anti-aircraft gun used against American forces, were acts of high treason.
Fonda has since addressed her past actions. While she has apologized for any offense caused to American veterans, she stands by her anti-war stance.
In recent years, she has continued her activism, criticizing President Joe Biden for not doing enough to address environmental issues related to a pipeline project initiated during Trump’s presidency.
Fonda believes that urgent action is needed to combat climate change and has called for more decisive measures.
Do you agree with Miller’s assessment of Fonda’s actions, or do you support her current activism?
