Her only real crime was that picture, which she herself has apologized for. I don't have a lot of hatred for the people who fought against the Vietnam war and what it stood for. I do think it is a huge travesty how people we drafted and got sent out forcibly were treated like criminals and not treated for their PTSD but that falls on the USA government.
Anyone arguing for in favor of that in these years are simply war mongerers and nationalistic idiots. Anyways, watch Julia on Netflix and see how Vanessa Redgrave & Hanoi Jane fight against nationalism in Nazi Germany in the Best Picture nominated Julia.
