WeAreInvictus - X

[ConstantGarden1]

A fitting endorsement from Fred Hargreaves OBE who on X wrote, “As ever, a genuine and heart-felt speech from the Duke of Sussex - the driving force and passion behind the #InvictusGames. So good to see this Award, and share the stage with Elizabeth, Kirsty and Israel.”

From the Royal Website, how the ‘driving force’ - Harry - brought Invictus into being:

Positive Harry posts have been flooding X. Haters were out too. Some negatively posting in a quasi-forensic manner. No ‘gotcha’ revelations, however, nor tens of thousands of likes which the repost of Harry’s speech on ESPN by the knowledgeable Robert Griffin III now has. In less than 2 days 51+K likes and still rising.

I also checked out some (too many) #Sussexsquad posters. It revealed teachers, veterans, different nationalities, colours, creeds, nurses, retired folk etc etc. Thus I formed a completely different understanding about the use of the hashtag to support the Sussex family. There were also very strange users of the hashtag too. The hashtag was additionally utilised to send the message out on X to put the anti-Harry and Meghan posters or ‘derangers’, as they are often called, on mute and not to engage. Quite a restrained and civil position to promote and many did just that. Invictus awareness was successfully brought to those who had never heard of the international fraternity of veterans with disabilities and injuries by this hashtag alone.

Watching the videos on X I saw Harry speak with sincerity and humility under pressure. His words, “The truth is, I stand here not as Prince Harry, Pat Tillman Award recipient, but rather a voice on behalf of the Invictus Games Foundation and the thousands of veterans and service personnel from over 20 nations who have made the Invictus Games a reality. This award belongs to them. Not to me.”

Harry has now been awarded, by a very diverse online presence, a new respect. And I do believe he’s also a jolly good fellow…and so say many, many, many of us. 😊💙

I am so glad I went on my very new X twitter account for I was disgusted with the Daily Mail’s use of Pat Tillman’s mother to denigrate Prince Harry as it was totally uncalled for. Call it for what it was - a hit piece of journalism designed to create a mini storm online. We know nothing about the context of how they obtained words supposedly said by Pat’s mother about Harrry. I was aghast too at how Pat’s widow has also been treated by some online posters. Her foundation may not be perfect but she does more than anyone to honour him. Pat’s mother also did not go on any mainstream American media either where her complaints would have been listened to and would have provided the much needed context for the hate motivated article by a newspaper under the spotlight for its nefarious journalism and click bait articles about Harry.

Harry’s response was beautiful. The way Harry acknowledged Pat’s mother went further than him being a royal. It was a standout out moment of what being human is all about. I do believe he’s also a jolly good fellow…and so say many, many, many of us. 😊💙

Delectable
I think it shows what kind of man, husband and birth partner he was. Just trying to get a high. Not really concerned about the woman birthing his child. All for the S&G, eh?
Why people put him on a pedestal, I have no idea.

(Re the gas and air story).

Quite - very much on a par with his hilarious anecdote about tracking his father's car for a missile strike. Absolutely tone-deaf - and it betrays the mind-set of a man who thinks he's funny and witty because everyone has always felt obliged to laugh at his pathetic jokes. Most people would wince at these very revealing stories.

It's a useful reminder and reality-check for those posters who claim the RF-sympathisers are 'haters'. Gosh, what we could post if we stooped to the level of some of the H & M supporters (as seen up thread). For every nasty and quite unfounded claim about the Wales's relationship, there's plenty of much more plausible stuff about the Sussexes. But we leave that to the gutter press - and I just wish the Sussex supporters would, too.

Yep. There are those who ignore that fact that quite a lot of the criticism of Harry is based on things he put in his own blasted book, information none of us would have been privy to otherwise. It backfired.

They accuse us of getting stuff from "the mainstream media" or "the British Media" (sic). No - it's all from the man himself, Global Harry fans.

Oh I just love those trashy checkout rags, @MummyJ12 - or rather I love laughing at whatever's the latest stupidity they've come up with

Even more, though, I love it when folk hear my accent and start grilling me for the "real story" ... as if I'd know!!

I learned about the wild gossip about H&M right here from their own fans. I would always ask why they were repeating such horrible things and the response was that they wanted to prove horrible things are said about them, too. But never heard any of it here from anyone who criticizes them.

Exactly.
Using words such as unhinged and haterz, for posters who don’t agree unequivocally with them and the nastiness and vile posts about Catherine. It’s a low bar.
Some posters seem to gleefully post rumours and mistruths as to deflect and detract. The RF sympathisers among us, absolutely don’t stoop to that level. We also don’t try to limit freedom of speech and control the narrative by reporting every post that we don’t agree with on these threads. If we did, there would be many more deletions I’m sure. Personally, I like posts from posters to speak for themselves. Let everyone see how mean a mean girl can be. Our critical thinking and reasoning just makes the goading and unnecessary comments look worse.

😂

On the attack again.

I agree, using "unhinged" and "haters" really is low.

Trashing? That is daft they spoke about what they experienced and their views. It’s a legitimate action to take when you are treated so badly.

How were they treated badly, please?

What they said they experienced. Plus not exactly "views" more like slurs.
Oh, and plenty of lies. To make money.
What's that song? "How low can you go?"

Who treated them badly ? The RF that they wanted to stay part of ( but only on their terms)? The taxpayers who paid millions for their wedding ? The millions who wished them well ?
Who?

Not given exactly what they wanted, when they wanted, how they wanted etc.

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck then it’s a duck. The comments about Harry are straight out of the red tops playbook. Negative and demeaning. What does it matter to you if people like him. Seems people on this site really need to drink some chill juice.

If they were treated badly by anyone I'd like to see evidence!
Ironic, considering how they treat others.

No. Straight out of "Spare", "Oprah" et al.
His words, his behaviour.

And you choose to believe they are lying when it’s obvious they were not. Keep banging that drum but people are moving on from those who view the chaotic House of Windsor through rose tinted spectacles.

Obvious how, please?

I'm saying nothing about the House of Windsor.
Folks can love Harry and Meghan, have fanzines or whatever. They can go for it.
The greed and lies of H&M have been proven time and time again. Sometimes I think it's entertaining, but then I wonder about mental health problems with so much deception and falsehood.
Anyway. Perhaps they're getting help. I hope so.
It's not a way to live.

How do you defend your own comments on Catherine? They seem pretty negative and demeaning to me.
It’s completely fine for you to like Harry. Just please respect that other people may not agree with his behaviour and have valid opinions on the things he’s done, had printed in his book and what he has said in interviews. That doesn’t make people bad or disgusting. So maybe it’s you that needs to enjoy the chill juice too?
I love ducks by the way 😂😂

and you choose to believe they are lying when - it’s obvious they were not

There. All better.

@DelectableMe

I fear those who are determined to don the rosiest of spectacles when looking at the Sussexes serve only to to do them greater harm.

I would agree. Extraordinary.
