Me again just doesn't get it! Can someone just give her a shake and open her eyes.

So while being a speaker at a woman's day event she states how she was cyber bullied while pregnant and how this wasn't acceptable etc etc. I agree no bullying is acceptable!

BUT what exactly does she think is going to happen after all of her and her husband's references and damming reports of the Royal Family. They wrote a book, they did an exclusive worldwide interview, a documentary AND a netflix series. All of which were derogatory to others and they have said and done such awful things. They used social media to advertise and market AND used the international press to slag off their family, the royal family.

The common theme across all of it yet again is how she has been personally vilified and affected. She is completely unaware that she's brought this on herself.

What to do with someone who is so inwardly absorbed yet is constantly given a public platform. Who and what is it going to take for her to quit being the victim and start to take responsibility for what she has done.

I don't think you can really have sympathy for somebody who has been cyber-bullied and also say "but they brought it on themselves". It's the equivalent of the "she was asking for it" type of judgement about what a woman was wearing when she was raped.

It's one thing saying that you can see the cause and effect - it's another to say or imply that a person is responsible for their own bullying because of their own actions.

(FWIW I am fairly neutral about Meghan. She's decided her business model is one of speaking against the RF, - specifically on their bullying of her and her husband - so it's perfectly on brand for her to speak on the subject of cyber-bullying too.)

She will continue for as long as it is profitable to her to do so.

She has had terrible stuff said about her online, there is no denying that.

There is also no denying she is a bully herself, with multiple examples of her bullying others. Her bullying is far more personal, most of the bullying she experienced is from anonymous loons, which in many ways is more scary than hurtful, while her bullying is more painful and damaging to others rather than scary.

She is annoying and comes across as particularly nasty.

Ignore her, she’s trying to relaunch herself (again!) as they’ve nothing on the horizon. Best not to give her any attention at all.

She’s very boring.

This. If you don't like it, starve the fire of oxygen - that includes starting threads on social media about her.

Attention = she'll still find it profitable to carry on.

The common theme across all of it yet again is how she has been personally vilified and affected. She is completely unaware that she's brought this on herself.

eh? The media slaughtered her before she did any of those things to defend herself. I find this obsession and hatred of Meghan utterly bizarre, she’s not actually done anything wrong and anything anyone points out that she’s done wrong, like you did in your OP, was month after being ripped apart by UK public and media.

It’s true that the British tabloids take no prisoners. The ripping apart seemed to be after we’d cottoned on to her character, I feel. She seemed great before the numerous bullying reports and that awful engagement interview when she said she didn’t know who Harry was and ‘was he kind?’. On balance, still not a fan of this public figure.

Having a bad opinion of her and voicing it isn't bullying.

I dont understand how she was cyber bullied when no one was messaging her?

She didn't have to read social media or the media full stop. Plenty of others don't.

It's all just the usual woe is me bullshit. The media need to stop giving them airtime, like they supposedly wanted. Why they keep coming back though....

With the ongoing bullshit of repeating that same story of how she singlehandedly got P&G to change one of their advertisements, which according to others, is more stretching of the truth as it was actually a class project. There is a photo of Harry in the audience with eyes glassed over and a stock smile, reminded me of myself when my MIL repeats the same story I have heard since our first introduction.

Is it only mammals that have mothering instinct? What about ducks?

Well, I think we've seen from the current "where's Kate?" and the appalling SM rumour mill on that, that the same Palace policy of non-engagement with bottom feeders remains in place.

I'm not sure how much influence Meghan has these days - she still has plenty of opportunities to speak. But I think if she retells the school project "write a letter to a company" story again, people will drift off. It was a great opener, but we've all heard it now and what's needed is what came next - and as personally it's not much, then the usual tactic is to use the platform to showcase others

No lover of Megan, but I did agree with her references to the lack of humanity on social media's.
As said, they are once again rebranding.

If she wants more positive coverage of women out there then she could ask her husband to retract some of the appallingly misogynistic things he says in his book and on their TV doc.

It is deeply hypocritical and illiberal to insists on freedoms for yourself that you wouldn’t allow other people. She is obviously happy to throw Catherine and Camilla to the wolves (sorry feed them to the wolves) but is then upset that she gets criticised for it.

It would be very easy for her to as her Sussex Squaddies to stop being such misogynistic arseholes but she doesn’t.

A narcissist is always a victim or a hero. Never the villain.

Perhaps she could have a word with Sussex Squad!

Please don’t mention that Suss*x word. It offends my delicate sensibilities

I think both M & H live in a bubble. They can't see themselves as others see them.

If Harry is asked to leave America for “lying” on paperwork where will they go? Could be a lot of humble pie to be eaten before the British public will welcome them let alone Royals let’s face it if it was an average family it would be hard to forgive those personal rude comments I would avoid them like the plague but worldwide publicity criticism attempts to ridicule humiliate the monarchy after all his grandmother’s hard work as Queen and accusations of racism whilst keeping the titles and don’t forget all the privileges and money she received from the word go🙈she seems to forget how everyone loved her including press til she went “ I’m the most important person in the family listen“ mode and harry must be weak character not to see it s narcissistic la la land stuff.

Jumping on a band waggon again to try to raise her profile 🥱
The fact is she and Harry are bullies! They are vile narcissists

I find it sad @motherofkevinnotperry that you proclaim you don't agree with bullying yet you felt the need to call the thread "Me again'

Is sentence construction taught in any places throughout the world?

TBH I think it's you who doesn't get it OP. It is hard to disagree with anything MM said in this ocassion.

Apart from that you are focusing on a small part of what she said, and she spoke as part of a much larger event. Out of that the British media are reporting what will get them clicks, and you are lapping it up.

Whatever you think of Meghan’/s own words and behaviour, she has been trolled horrendously. Have you ever looked at the comments on the DM on a M&H story? I think the abuse of female public figures is something she actually is very well qualified to talk about

Clearly bullying isn't acceptable; however it was at an International Womens' Day panel in London that Meghan said "I don't read anything, it's much safer that way", and asked whether she used Twitter replied "No! Sorry no. For me, that is my personal preference"

So unless the above were more "inaccuracies" how would she know what was being said, whether it was simply fair comment or not?

Hate the silly name calling, it reduces what could be an interesting discussion to playground nonsense. It adds nothing and takes away any credibility that a conversation is even wanted or just a pile on.
