Porkies, Perfidies & Pomposity - Harry and Meghan thread 2

[YaMuvva]

I do not take credit for the title

First thread here

Shall we continue the discussion? I will not be engaging with the posters spouting damaging and unfounded gossip

I agree with this. I can understand that they may not wish to get on the wrong side of such vicious posters but they would look so much better if they were to say something to the effect of 'We really appreciate the support but please remember not to be unkind' or similar. They would have gained so much 'high ground' if they had done this. Their silence is indeed compliance.

I feel it is too late to pipe up now.

Their silence was indeed compliance.

And could you imagine if they came out with ‘oh please be kind’ now for Sean Lennon? And they didn’t for the woman Harry once described as being nigh on a sister? At a time when she and the King were going through the aftermath of a cancer diagnosis?

Aye.

That would make them look like an even bigger pair of cunts than they already are.

@Vespanest They were simultaneously attacking Remi Tinubu while saying she didn’t mean anything by it.

Simultaneously saying they hated bullying while contributing to the mob mentality regarding Catherine. Some people can seem reasonable for a long time, but eventually show themselves.

I agree. I’ve always thought she has no idea who she really is. She is even trying on ethnicities. One minute she claims Maltese heritage, the next she’s Nigerian, whilst still being a ‘Cali girl’ and a Duchess who is Ever So Important simultaneously.

Before she met Harry she was gushing on about her fabulous father and what an amazing person he was/ what a great bond they had. Then he’s cut off completely and vilified. When she first joined the RF she said Kate was so helpful, then she was cast as some sort of evil witch .
She's seems to change like the wind with no real central core to her personality.

This.

Their behaviour is inexcusable. Both that of the Sussex squad and Meghan and Harry.

I agree that this is probably just a lot of hot air coming from various orifices of the Squad. What I find interesting is that whenever online threats have been made against the Sussexes, there is much howling about them needing full time security etc, even if the threat is not credible (if a credible threat is made then they would get security in the UK at least)

Having ballet lessons does not make you a ballerina any more than having riding lessons makes you a jockey.

I only had about a year of ballet and I was 8.
I know how to curtsy.

To be fair, there was no mention of her being Margot Fonteyn.
The point was that she did know how to curtsy and it was a silly thing to lie about…..!

It’s not as if we haven’t got video footage of Meghan curtsying before she met Harry.

TBH I never did ballet but I know how to curtsey too. And I'm not an actress either whose actual job it is to learn such things plus lines or songs such as the National Anthem.

She just speaks a load of crap IMO. Whatever she thinks might make her look good in any particular moment but without the ability to realise that an easily accessible international knowledge base and archive called the internet exists.

Although I feel bad for Sean, this will highlight the vileness of the SS for a group of people who might not have known they existed. Sean should call them out.

The SS is turning into a cult. People are going to see this and keep away from H & M. Thete is no benefit to interacting with them, and then you have to deal with death threats from the SS.

I agree @BemusedAmerican.
Sean Lennon has 370 thousand followers on X if anything it is shining a light on how vile they are and how they operate. Although I hope he’s ok. As much as these people lack intelligence as well as integrity, it must still be scary because you just don’t know what they are capable of and they are also obsessive and unhinged. A dangerous combination. I don’t think death threats can or should be minimised.

Meghan and Harry are going to end up pariahs, because of the toxicity surrounding them and their cult.

11 minutes ago. I am sure the New York papers will pick it up soon. H & M's new PR guy should issue a statement.

That’s shocking Sean Lennon has received death threats but I’m not surprised. Hopefully they are investigated.

People are now advocating for a complete media blackout for the Sussexes. I think this is a great idea, and it works for them too as they hate the media attention (apparently).
I am totally onboard with this and will not be clicking on any articles in any publication regarding them, no matter how tempted I am. Hopefully it will make a difference if enough people do it too. If nothing else, I will know that I am doing something positive for all parties by trying to starve the clickbait.

That's actually really disturbing.

It is a cult. A very dangerous one.
I do hope Harry and Meghan make a statement soon.
They should distance themselves from this vile bullying.

They will definitely make public comment on this now.

I wonder if that article names the Sussex squad? Probably not, so Teflon Ted and the gang won’t be implicated…

I don't think they are in a position to make a public comment on it, they endorse these people, and its now being rumoured that Misan Harriman is another puppet master for the Sussex Squad.

I wouldn't be surprised if H will reach out privately to Sean.

I don't know how a media blackout would work, they still have the likes of People magazine working for them. I do think it would be great if it did happen though.

If they make a statement it would be a general one as the one from the conference with the trolling they receive centre stage. I’m hoping that something is said soon if only for the children’s sake. So much is made of who’s the prettiest between the adults the idea that this is the fate of Charlotte and lilibet would be awful. Feminism my arse. I blame Twitter as well for allowing some or the worst abuse. One of the tweets to Lennon I saw was along the lines it would have been better for his father to have been shot before he impregnated yoko. For giving his views on a book!

I can see them saying “we know what it’s like”.
