To dislike the vitriol on here about their return

135 replies

VictoriaSpunge · Yesterday 09:10

Just read through two different threads about their return to this country and I could feel my energy draining the more I read the comments.
There is so much vitriol and lots of snidy remarks in the comments.
Why not just leave them be, let them get on with their lives and wish them well?

Imagine being on your deathbed and looking back at your life and thinking “At least I spent all those years hating a man and woman who didn’t know I exist”.

This is why the “touch grass” meme was invented.

Is it being so cheerful thar keeps you going? I just can't be bothered to expend the energy hating someone I have never met and has done no harm beyond the fevered imaginations of Mail readers and Piers Morgan fans.

We should all aspire to be the best we can be.

I don’t hate the Markles. I just don’t like be taken for a fool and exploited and fobbed off with a pack of lies and propaganda. They clearly have malicious intent. And refuse any accountability. I’m glad Harry lost his court case against the media. Previously, the Markles used the threat of lawsuits against anyone they wanted to shut up & silence.

Probably because King Charles is ill and doesn’t have much time left, and they want their grubby inheritance before William cuts off all their titles.

I don’t see Markle hanging around once the magic money tree drys up.

You are unreasonable to put this SHITE in AIBU instead of the RF board

Wow reading @Nicewomancomments on here. Especially the first long post. Meghan forced Harry into marriage- assume you know this because you spoke to one of them about it? Meghan doing and saying things ‘constantly’ and ‘247’.

You know that all of this is in your head? You’ve read opinion pieces in the news, looked at photos etc and made it all up to fit your own narrative. It’s bonkers you’ve given people you apparently don’t dislike so much headspace. It can’t be good for your mental health.

Leaving was bad, coming back is bad too. No pleasing some blooming people tsk….
Just seems such a trivial issue, bit baffled anyone is getting exercised about it, but they clearly are!

How are they exploiting you? Have you signed up to a jam subscription and get an answerphone message every time you phone up to try and cancel it?

Anyone who looks at their payslip and sees how much taxes they pay and then wonder where £5m security bill for the Markles is coming from, when the Markles have plenty of cash to pay for security themselves.

just the mere fact of Harry endlessly taking the Government to court to get 24/7 security just so Markle can travel around in a Presidential limousine and pretend she’s important.

Note that Princess Anne who is a working royal doesn’t even get protection, nor the Duke of Edinburgh should make you wonder all these expenses racked up by the Markles, if they want fancy living, they need to pay for it themselves. Only, guess what, they don’t want to pay for it themselves and want some mug to pay for their luxury living.

Unfortunately, the last 6 years have shown the Markels have runaway spending habits and no means of earning their own money. Everyone has sacked them.

This move to the UK is purely because they are going to the bank of mum and dad for handouts and cash, and when Charles weakly says no, the Markles then go stridently to the UK government who seems to cave into their demands.

Canada, the US, Australia, have all said a big FO to the Markles, They are now sloping back here when they totally viciously shat on this country. It’s appalling. Anyway, rant over.

I’d be happy to see the monarchy phased out and I used to get angry about the money-grabbing racket that is the Duchy of Cornwall. But if most Brits want a monarchy and the tourist money it attracts, then I suppose we just have to put up with it. Harry and Meghan are small fry compared to the Duchy, but the media are experts at directing public anger on to the targets that suit their owners’ political objectives.

It was this country that viciously shat on them. But you do you. You evidently don't have a lot else going on.

How do you know they’ve asked Charles for money and he’s weakly said no? Have you made this up yourself or just believed other people‘s speculation?
