I must say, as a newbie, I was expecting a lot more support for the Royal family and discussions about them. This seems to be the Meghan and Harry defence league 😂

Don't worry, and it will go back to normal. There seems to be an unbalance within the royal family at the moment. Quite interesting. The Kate thread didn't go as expected too, which was shocking for MN.

@debbrianna the Wales’ are in a family holiday, I guess. I did enjoy the photos of Charles and Camilla in Germany 🇩🇪

Morning,
@PreparationPreparationPrep , I don't need to defend @Roussette , she does well on that front ( although I have in the past ) , we may disagree but we have always shown respect to each other.
I'm sorry I found accusations that Camilla made a white supremacy hand salute on arrival in Germany , to be offensive!

Good morning

No - Your post was suggesting another poster shouldn't defend Rousette.

I found it odd that you suggest one poster can defend themselves implying they should be left to deal with it, when posters including yourself defend others all the time.

Anyway I think the poster replied to you .

notanotheroneagain · 01/04/2023 11:35

Thanks MNHQ, just got back to read this thread, and can't believe the attacks I have been reading on one of the most reasonable posters on here. I think it was around 10 pages or something.

Whaeanui · 01/04/2023 07:49

I get it. But I posted a funny video and everything to try and ‘end things’ and lighten the mood and nobody seemed to take any notice 😂 You gotta watch her, Karen the Emu targets that poor woman relentlessly 😂

Nice one 😂😂

We get it 😇

Yes, exactly. It’s just a forum.

Or perhaps pp can try another thread. There are plenty of threads that offer unfettered bashing of the couple with no pushback.

Or threads that permit no critique of monarchs whatsoever, or reference to that critique, or presentation of evidence of that critique upon request by numerous posters. There are even commenters who will obsessively chase dissenters from thread to unrelated thread to shit stir and harass further.

I would say those commenters need to back the fuck all the way off and get a life.
Do not come for me unless I send for you.

notanotheroneagain · 01/04/2023 11:42

Don't know why posters keep bringing up Anne whose children are Philips and Zara's children are Tindal. And the girls will marry someone else, and continue the line further away.
Don't think her dc were ever going to get titles.

A&L are Harry's children, so the line will continue with Archie and his boys. Unless Lili married a prince, her children will be Smith or whoever.

Only because they are vociferous and prolific posters 😂

To see genuine opinions of a large number of non biased posters, look at the start of the thread when it appears in 'Active'. No one with an axe to grind, most people sitting on the fence re the monarchy, and honest opinons about the RF particularly harry and meghan.

once the posts have run for a long time you get a small handful of very pro H&M posters who take over the thread and are hostile to anything negative about the couple.

You also get a few (I'm one of them) very sceptical about H&M and prepared to speak out about the hypocrisy. I'm not a royalist or anti royal but I'm very much anti them, simply because I believe they are two appalling human beings.

Just a massive thank you @YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet for the moderators for cleaning up this thread. I promise I won’t derail with any more Karen the Emu videos, I may start a thread elsewhere, she’s a Queen but not the kind that belongs on the royal board!

Sorry @jeffgoldblum 😁

good to see that mn hq have sorted it. but can someone explain what "play the ball and not the woman" means please. its not an expression I have ever heard.

GrinAndVomit · 01/04/2023 11:50

This is hilarious. I wonder if the posts where I’ve been called a paranoid and thick and where other posters have been called stalkers have been deleted?

I did watch this on YouTube @Whaeanui and it is funny. You have to be quick with Karen though as she's not messing. I'm thinking she must have a very strong neck or the original videos need lots of editing 🤣

Whaeanui · 01/04/2023 07:59

@PreparationPreparationPrep I just discovered her, it’s the Useless Farm on YouTube. One Emu is lovely but the other will not leave the farmer lady alone, I don’t know how she isn’t covered in bruises! If things get too heated here or anywhere, just go have a laugh watching Karen 😂

😂😂😂

@Whaeanui I assure you that your delightful but utterly random emu video did not go to waste! 🤣

I watched it about a dozen times last night. Mainly to figure out wtf I was even watching. Then some more to have a laugh - while still wondering wtf? 💭

It is surreal & hilarious. Thank you!

@MamoruHisaishi no I don’t believe you actually. You say you’d feel bad if you hurt peoples feelings but you’ve written some pretty terrible things knowing that you’re adding to a mountain of hate that caused Meghan to be suicidal. Besides, you haven’t read it so you have no clue what you’re talking about. Please don’t tag me about it again until you’ve read it because there’s no discussion to be had otherwise.

JFC, this is some of the most insane hyperbole I've ever read on MN

@PreparationPreparationPrep @PlanetLuna oh I’m glad you enjoyed it! Yes Emus have very strong necks which hurt if they get you

Eeeek, @jeffgoldblum your post makes it look like it was me that posted that about Camilla.
It was not. Just for the record I want to make that clear.

@YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet Thank you.

I’m not upset by it. I was calling out the hypocrisy in speaking to people that way while claiming to be a victim.

Good afternoon @Roussette hope you are well.
