Why is Meghan hated?

[YourBrickTiger]

I have very strong views about the Royals especially Camilla, however I am genuinely interested and want to find out more as to why Meghan Markle seems to be so hated. I'm asking in case there is something I have missed. I do read up as much as I can and watch shows from 'both sides' of the argument, but there is nothing that I have seen so far that warrants the level of sheer hatred geared towards her - I don't mean on here necessarily, but on social media in general. She cannot do ANYTHING without a swarm of people descending on her like vampires to tear her apart.

She isn't an adulteress, she's not a paedophile or sex offender, she isn't lazy, she seems to genuinely care about people in need.....and from what has been shown, she genuinely loves Harry and is just trying to make a life with him. He left the UK to start a life away from a nest of some awful people, his mother died when he was 12, his uncle is a sex offender, there is racism and a rigid set of rules within that family where he won't be king anyway so what is wrong with him leaving?

I'm not starting this to start an argument I am genuninely interested in why she is so rabidly disliked and why? Maybe I will start to feel differently if there is more of a reason but at the moment I cannot see one?

There was a civil court case which ended in a pay out. He wasn't convicted was he ? I dislike Andrew as much as anyone but I don't like lies.

I thought the post was made about Andrew.

Sorry - wrong person .

Who is defending him ???

There seem to be some crossed wires on this thread. Posts referring to Trump and proven sexual misconduct, including rape have been picked up by others who thought the proven sex assualts (via court but not criminal court charges) were thoughts by some posters to be referring to PA (the original posts named Trump but obvioiusly sumbsequent posts used 'he' - hence confusion and some misplaced outrage amongst posters.
To sum up; Trump legally found to be sex pest (other posters defintion not mine)but still President of US (why does America ignore/devalue women). PA not legally found to have to been sex pest (keeping same definition)but clearly enamoured and in all sorts of debt to extreme predator JE, which may well/probably include sexual misconducdcut at very least

Excellent post.

And now we have testimony from beyond the grave that a 'blood prince' of our realm both knew and commented on her age before getting his kicks.

Revolting.

I think I'm getting jaded and cynical - I've lost any surprise or shock for how many men - even the regular ordinary guys miles apart from the Andrews and the Epsteins of the world - really devalue women and see them only in relation for how they can serve men. How many men don't see why they aren't entitled to much much younger women as some kind of due.

Because she hasn’t embraced the royal family? She knew she was marrying a prince of england bur didn’t bother to learn the national anthem , courtesy etiquette and thought she was more important than she was

England doesn't have princess. So M isn't the only one ignorant of the royal family.

she’s a proven liar and drama queen. Have you seen those podcasts !

• princes.

No such thing as a Prince of England.

So Harry was not a Prince? And not from England? @Letmeoutodhere @BigAnne? And it doesn’t matter if I am ignorant if British royalty- I did not marry into it!

He is a Prince of the United Kingdom of Grat Britain and Northern Ireland.

England and Scotland united their crowns in 1707 (? around then) so the title of King/Prince of England hasn't existed for over 300 years.

Why are you posting on a RF thread if you’re ignorant about the RF?

You ask in the title of the thread - Why is Meghan hated ? @YourBrickTiger
I don’t think she is hated.
I think she is disliked by many as her actions appear hypocritical and she ( and Harry ) upset the much loved QE2 in her last years - Remember “Recollections may vary…”
I don’t hate her.
I dislike some of the things she does.
I think she is very pretty/ beautiful.
She hit lucky but wants more.

It doesn't matter where I saw it. It's not my opinion that he was found liable for sexual assault, is it? It's a fact.

I'm not sat pouring over his social media and every media appearance he makes, gossiping about him with strangers on the internet like some sad old fishwife, as people do with Megan, Harry and the rest of the royal family.

You asked me if I had an opinion on Donald Trump. The answer was 'no'. So what was your point?

Sigh. Ok, I’ll walk you through my point, step by step.

You criticised posters for forming opinions on Meghan and Harry, whom they didn’t know personally, based on what they’d read in papers, seen online or on tv. From what I recall (and I’m not going back to check, so this may be paraphrasing) you called them sad and pathetic, or similar.

I found it hard to believe that you think people shouldn’t be forming opinions on people they don’t know personally. So I chose someone who is a fairly devisive character leading to polarising opinions, and asked if you had an opinion on him, as the vast vast majority do, despite not knowing him personally. You claim not to have an opinion on him per se, merely his politics, and to generally dislike sex pests.

So, next, I asked how you came to be of the opinion he is a sex pest. And your response was that this was fact as proven in court. Which it is. But you only know that because of what you’ve seen on tv, newspapers or online. So your dislike of Trump based on him being a sex pest, is based on what you’ve seen online and in media.

Now, obviously, the quality of what is reported and published can vary greatly with some being objective fact (nothing ‘so called’ about them) and some being individual surmising and opinion. Court findings are facts. In the case of Meghan and Harry, there are lots of court cases on which to base opinion and draw conclusions. There are also the various interviews they’ve given and the documentaries they’ve made, as well as ‘Spare’. They are pretty reliable sources of info on the couple. Unless you think they’re lying. (Though, wasn’t Meghan found to have lied, or ehh, misled the court?) So nobody needs to be forming an opinion based on the nonsensical ramblings of various TikTokers when there is plenty from the horses mouths, as it were.

But it all comes back to all of this and all our opinions being based on what we’ve seen online and in media, seeing as we don’t know M&H or Trump personally. All opinions on them are based on those sources. Some sources are more objective and thus more valid than others. And we have plenty valid sources relating to M&H, so opinions based on those are quite valid. So to criticise someone for using those sources while doing so yourself is hypocritical and disingenuous.

And while I hesitate to say 'what about Andrew' - he hasn't been convicted of being a 'sex pest', so unless you know him personally I assume you have no opinion of him.or his behaviour? All any of us know about him has come through the media.

Meghan isn’t hated. She comes in for a lot of criticism but I don’t see evidence of hatred. If there was then she would be a lot less inclined to put herself out so publicly where she might be in physical danger.

She is heartily disliked, but most of that is not from the early days when the media reported on her, but since Megxit when she found her voice and started speaking her truth. If people dislike her, it’s the version of her she wants us to see.

I think she is deeply hated by some. There’s a dank corner of Reddit that regularly tear her apart in a most hateful way.

Same is true for dark corners of all SM regarding Catherine.

Criticism is not hatred. Public figures deliberately putting themselves out publicly do so knowing it will be commented on. Meghan also gets a lot of adulation.

The people on Reddit don’t hate Meghan. It’s sport to them. Could be anybody.

Spot on
