I know this isn't The Royal Family board. I'm not analysing Meghan as I don't know her and she will have no affect on my life. I have become interested in the press and public reaction to her as it feels misogynistic which obviously does affect me.
This is from Jeremy Clarkson today. I feel like is the dark she's and we're hunting witches again.
Meghan, though, is a different story. I hate her. Not like I hate Nicola Sturgeon or Rose West. I hate her on a cellular level. At night, I’m unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her. Everyone who’s my age thinks the same way.”

Jeremy Clarkson article about Meghan

What Jeremy Clarkson wrote in that article was completely vile and I don’t think his so called apology on twitter makes it ok either.
Meghan doesn’t deserve that kind of hatred… It’s just beyond fucked up, I hope she sues the twat and the newspaper that thinks it’s acceptable to print such a vile, abusive article.

I saw her interviewed on tv this morning. She wasn’t the least bit repentant. 🤮

This nails it. JC is known for being a cunt. It eventually got him fired from Top Gear.
He's done this for publicity. You can tell he's being deliberately OTT to get a reaction amidst mountains of MM commentary.

He is disgusting. He wrote this precisely to get this reaction because he makes a living from being a cruel troll.

Has everyone posting on this thread actually read the article?
While obviously in terrible taste, it is clearly a joke - exaggeration for comic effect. Reading some of the responses here, you’d think it was a serious call to violence. Some people called it ‘terrifying’!? Really?!
IAmWomanHearMeRoar1 · 20/12/2022 05:23
Are you serious? You're really going to use the 'it's just a joke!!' defence? For goodness sake! In this hotbed anti-Meghan time we're in, someone writes an article about stripping a woman naked in public and assaulting her with feces and you think 'oh it's just a joke!!!' is a defence? Give your head a wobble! It's an incitement to violence. So much so that even his own daughter has come out condemning him for it. Please don't even DARE try to write it off as a 'joke'.
