Jane Fonda’s “Internal Lesbian Anger” Speaks Out, With Help From Dana Goldberg
The loved iconic actress and the lesbian comedian team up to inspire action. In the Reel shared on Dana Goldberg’s socials, Fonda opens with a simple “I’m Jane Fonda,” then Goldberg jumps in as a second voice: “And I’m Jane Fonda’s internal lesbian anger.” Fonda pushes back with, “Dana, I’m not a lesbian,” and the punchline lands fast: “There’s still time, Jane. There’s still time.”
The caption accompanying the video frames it as a call to “speak up” and “fight for our First Amendment rights,” with a wink to “even the straight folks.”
Why the joke lands right now.
This one works because it gives people a character to borrow for 30 seconds: the part of you that’s over it, still cares, and is ready to act. So why is it getting reposted now? It’s been resurfacing across accounts tied to political and comedy content, including Political Voices Network, which published “Channel Your Internal Lesbian Anger” on January 30, 2026.
It also helps that Goldberg sits right in that lane. Her own press kit notes she’s a weekly guest on The Stephanie Miller Show, and her set often blends jokes with activism. Fonda’s done the same for decades, including her climate action work and her book What Can I Do?: My Path From Climate Despair To Action.
