Jane Fonda spoke about efforts to lengthen human life while she received an honor at the DVF Awards on Thursday. The 88-year-old actress said wealthy technology leaders and billionaires pursue endless existence even as they harm others and treat ordinary rules, including those of nature, as irrelevant to themselves.

She claimed men who never age cannot father children, so they will invent machines as substitutes and push remaining people into homemaker roles that produce many infants. Fonda also said those figures will end voting rights, though she insisted public resistance will stop them, and she linked the matter to rising temperatures that could soon reach an irreversible point.
