Megan & Harry - I want all of the tea!!!!

[OhShutIt]

I'll start by stating I couldn't give two shits about two people I don't know.

However, I am finding so much humour in the 'non racist' vitriol from people that don't know them, and who seemingly don't care, yet can't get them out of their mouths!

I can't wait for this Oprah interview (that I might not even bother to watch) because I'll find the obsessive thread after thread on this absolutely hilarious.

To start us who have had a lifetime of this shit off, I thought I'd add to the frothing with this gem!

Kelechi, Shola and Gina were so on point and so unapologetically Black!

I'm hoping we can congrats here for our own analysis later!

It's astounding how a man can be given a public platform day after day, to bully and harass a woman.

A pregnant woman who not so long ago had a miscarriage and has also suffered mental distress.

That there are people so blinded by racism, hate, jealousy they can't even see this is abnormal behaviour

That there are a multitude of women who are cool with a male cyber-stalker pursuing a woman relentlessly. The man has form for hacking a dead girl's phone FFS, yet his reward for that was to be the figurehead of GMB.

Any other than a PoC and there'd be an outcry. That such weirdness is enabled goes to show the dire state of this country's media, and those who so-called stand for Womens' rights yet are gleefully aligning with a man who harasses a woman.

Womens rights will never ever amount to anything in the UK, beyond back and forth tiresome arguments. Women who don't like themselves, women who don't like other women, racist women who are more concerned with othering non-White women than actually standing for something, male-centred women who underpin everything the patriarchy does, as they've always done, will make sure of that.

But the open acceptance and encouragement of cyber bullying/cyber stalking is a new low. Or at least, a reminder if how low they go.

Albeit in a way I'm glad Piers behaviour isn't behind closed doors; let it be seen and heard. He's getting a roasting on Twitter, and Alex Beresford put him in his place.

It's time for him to realise he and his White male arrogance and entitlement may not be 'at the top' much longer. & even if he is he looks a complete dickhead, much more so than he did before.

Well said DeeCeeCherry

@JingsMahBucket

The issue with Archie that they felt was racist is this:

When Charles ascends to the throne, his grandchildren would then be called princes and princesses. This is the usual rule everyone keeps talking about. In this case, Archie, seeing as how William’s children had been given a special allocation already.

H & M’s complaint that while Meghan was pregnant was the RF and the institution wanted to change the rules to deliberately not give Archie the title of prince when Charles became king, thus stripping Archie of his rightful title of prince. That’s why they were implying it was backhanded prejudice.

Thank you for clarifying that, very helpful.

@Cokie3 Sarah Campbell presented a fact-checking piece about the couple’s claims. Check on iPlayer bbc news at six Monday 8 March just after 10 minutes in.

@skodadoda Has Sarah Campbell ever lived with Meghan and Harry or been in the room with them and the RF in private?

If not, she knows nothing and has no 'facts' to correct. How can she 'factcheck' as most of what M and H claimed are lived experiences. M and H's claims are 'you had to be there' claims.

In other words, unless this Sarah Campbell was a fly on the wall or lived with them with the RF, she can't fact-check shit. But I am sure some gullible people will believe a total stranger knows what exactly happened behind closed doors.

Mixed race kids speaking out a thread linked.

""How can I be racist when I have a black child/grandchild?" is about the dumbest and most disingenuous comment a white person can make. When I hear that I automatically know I'm dealing with a racist.""

Just seen PM received 41,000 complaints to Ofcom about his comments!

@HmmmmmmInteresting

Good.

Just seen PM received 41,000 complaints to Ofcom about his comments!

Rightly so, his behaviour has been disgusting. But so have a lot of these posters on the Meghan basing threads, they even started trying to go for Meghan’s mum. Mumsnet doesn’t really seem to care about racism does it, otherwise why would you allow such hatred to fester on your website. I’m truly shocked by it, because this is presented as a ‘respectable’ corner of the internet when it is actually a platform for hatred, bullying and extremely unsavoury views being expressed in insidious ways and the pile on is uncontrolled and threads keep appearing. At what point does it cross the line I wonder?

I love Kelechi. She is always spot on with her observations.

I can't believe the RF thinks going to a black church vaccination centre today will prove they are not racist. This shit only works for simplistic racists themselves who then retort "But he went to a Black church" how dumb are you?

Lastly the racist parent is scary how many people use proximity to Blackness to deny their racism. Having sex with a Black person does not absolve you of racism - (have you even heard of the slave trade? Or Black men killed when a White woman lied about a consensual relationship that she was raped because of her own racism). Even worse than that are those who go on to say I have Black relatives or nieces /nephews/grandchildren etc so I can't be racist- so you are not racist because someone related to you had sex with a Black person. By this logic I'm an accountant or doctor- make it make sense please and stop using your own family as props to deny your racism, you can't even recognise using them as your trump card is dehumanising.

Palace have made/ issues a comment/ statement.

I smell BS!

Nah that's panic. BS is sweeter.

‘While some recollections may vary’

Here we go.......

It only makes me happy because I don't think the MN racists will like this letter at all - it won't satisfy their quest for the RF to respond harshly. Infact, it's as bad as "we stand by Meghan" in the eyes of these Meghan haters. A "dignified silence" as they like to say would have given them a better ammo to say "Look the RF can't be arsed to respond and are taking the high road".

I wonder what their response will be and how they'll try to twist this one to suit them.

Meanwhile, I see the sly "some recollections may vary" thrown in there to say "this isn't how we remember it but if you say so".

@Jangirl2018

‘While some recollections may vary’

Here we go.......

We know! That's the daily experience . If somoneone wanted yo stamp micro aggression on their forehead for future reference, they may need this absurdity tattooed where the sun does not shine. They should tell us something different..the old testament is tired. New testament is needed. Even Jesus knew that.

That's probably what the Meghan bashers will hold onto.

"See, she LIESSS! Our Palace masters think so too".

@debbrianna It’s very text book isn’t it.

@curlingtoes oh of course! This is the ‘proof’ they need to pile on even more hate and racism whilst they lick the boots of the Royal Family who is using their tax contributions to pay for their alleged peodophile son to live in luxury.

Seems Piers is leaving GMB.

He's gone - www.theguardian.com/media/2021/mar/09/ofcom-investigating-gmb-piers-morgan-comments-harry-meghan-sussexes

As I understand from the interview, the palace sold negativity regarding Meghan to gain positive press for other royals. She was the family scapegoat & pawn.

They had a huge opportunity with Meghan all they had to do was stand up for her.

I think it’s a reasonable assumption to say 99% of negative press was leaked from the palace.

She looks at peace. She’s happy, confident and strong. Harry however, you can see the years in the RF have beaten him down. He looked uncertain and uncomfortable. It might be just me but at times it appeared he didn’t understand questions being asked

I think one of the big issues was that as soon as William produced and heir and a spare they couldn't care less what happened to Harry unless it was to make William look good.

He did understand them.

He was trying to answer them by not being too blunt and naming people. He clearly didn't want to upset his gran.

He won't be missed (well by sane people anyway). ITV shouldn't get off scot free because they encouraged his rants and bullying against MM and gave him a platform to harass a woman for over 3 years. They deserve a massive fine.

Sadly Piers will go and spread his poison elsewhere, there are a million opportunities awaiting racist and sexist white men and no shortage of other white men ready and willing to give them an umpteenth chancd
