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!

We can't even talk in peace without the squatters invading

Tired of posters like this coming to detail our thread on the impact of race on MM and H's situation.

Deliberately obtuse and just posting whataboutery to derail the thread. Its disingenuous and designed to shift the conversation unnecessarily. Can Black people just discuss Black issues without this goady mess

@Fuhfeuucdr

Well she’s female. And she has the top job...query how the royal family can be described as bastion of male privilege.

This is ridiculous, was the Queen elected to her position through merit and hard work? No she was born into it, installed there as the only option. If she had had a younger brother he would have taken precedence - how is that not the definition of male privilege? Go away.

Let's just not engage with the squatters

You are right hmmmm just report and ignore. I fall prey to it, but FFS it's beyond annoying and so entitled

If she had had a younger brother he would have taken precedence - how is that not the definition of male privilege?

Easy to explain. That rule (primogeniture) was an anachronism and has since been abolished.

I am really troubled by posters on here. I have made valid points and tried to contribute to the discussion.

I have been sworn at and called names. WTF?

The irony is, I have every right be be here.

@Handsoffstrikesagain

Sorry hmmmm that sounded like I was minimising x

Not at all, I knew what you meant x

@Fuhfeuucdr

What your trying to do is change the tone of the conversation. If you want to do what your trying to do here, go to the main board. They will engage you, but this is very different. Look for the ‘debate’ elsewhere.

@HmmmmmmInteresting that's what those racists like Piers Morgan and those that support him completely fail to understand is that racism causes mental health issues.

Panorama was on Monday just before the interview about racism (you can see it on iPlayer) with Naga Munchetty where black people mentioned we can't be ourselves in society to avoid negative repercussions, and they wonder why more black people have mental health problems.

I've just been reminded that the Colston, whose statue was torn down, gave money to the Crown. So the entire institution of monarchy is built on the profits of racism and racism is so entrenched many people in the UK fail to see it.

Anyway this article by David Olusoga is worth a read - www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/mar/09/harry-and-meghan-interview-this-is-not-just-a-crisis-for-the-royal-family-but-for-britain-itself

On GMB Instagram page, they’ve still got all of PM videos, posts, comments. I’m really surprised. I’ve reported them via Instagram but I’m not sure what else to do.

These are for @Fuhfeuucdr I made a big error earlier in the thread because I posted about how I felt having an Indian grandfather. I just wanted people to see me as me not “ oh have you been on holiday againyou always look tanned”

BUT and thus is a big BUT not everyone feels this was so it should be acknowledged.

Argh this not thus.

@phoenixrosehere

She tried to change an ancient institution. The establishment didn’t like it.

I keep seeing this trotted out but no one has said what she did exactly that says she tried to change it.

Other than saying she wanted to hit the ground running and being enthusiastic to start her duties especially concerning charities, what examples are there that she tried to change things?

It's a weired quote Whst people mean is that she wanted them to treat her like a human being and they could not. Old institution means racism and sexism.

The Queen has the top job but sexism still exist in her position. Her husband can't be king but her daughter in law can be Queen..make that what will. Yes I know its Queen consort but I will not be splitting hairs over the word Queen and Queen consort

So the entire institution of monarchy is built on the profits of racism and racism is so entrenched many people in the UK fail to see it.

They see it, they just fail to acknowledge it

Meghan formally lodged a complaint with ITV about Piers Morgan. Not about how the comments affected her, but how the comments would affect anyone going through a mental health crisis.

MM must be going through so much personally right now and still had the compassion to think of others.

He will get a kick out of that. Some attention from Meghan.

All bullies do, his unhealthy obsession is becoming a security risk now. He is not a victim of "Cancel culture".

Piers is contemptible. He is still going and throwing accusations and insults. ITV's share price has dropped since Piers was let go and Telegraph has an article saying ITV will regret letting Piers go and basically he shouldn't have been "fired" (yes he resigned but we all know it was resign or be fired).

And then you want to say the UK is not racist.

If Meghan had not complained then he would have felt smug anyway. Like he’d “ got away with it”.

I’m glad she complained so that any other presenter thinking they should comment like that thinks twice.
