Dan Wootton obsessed with H &M

Why is Dan Wootton so obsessed and full of hatred for Harry & Meghan?

i recently listened to Spare on audible - purely because it was free and I was interested to see what he had to say. ( most of it was boring self indulgent crap imo)
predictably the algorithms have filled my YouTube with H &M stuff!

it seems there is a daily barrage of videos from DW about them, such vitriol from this man. It’s unhinged!
I mean don’t get me wrong, I’m no fan of theirs at all but Jesus he acts like they murdered his granny.
He’ll post a picture of one of them literally smiling and turn it into a massive conspiracy theory about smirking at the Queen on her deathbed or some utter nonsense

rant over!!!

Yes, it's a very binary - and strange - way of looking at things!

I’m glad I’m not the only one to think that! …I mean where does it lead?
Hitler was a vegetarian for example! , do millions of vegetarians around the world need to rethink their dietary preferences so as not to align with his?

I thought this was about someone being obsessed with the retailer H&M. 😜

Would probably be a less decisive thread! 🤣

What a very odd perspective! , so because you or others don’t like someone they should totally change their own opinion to the opposite if it coincides with the opinion of said person!! 🤔
I suppose that does explain the state of voters in this country.

It’s not an odd perspective at all. I would have thought that it’s common sense, if you find yourself agreeing with proven shit-stirrers and misogynists rather too often, to perhaps step back and re-assess, and engage independence of thought, and think yes, perhaps this continuous on-line criticism of H&M has gone far enough and is out of all proportion to what they have actually done.

Absolutely! It does remind me of "you don't like something Keir Starmer said, you must be a Reform voter"!
I'm kind of concerned, because I think all nuance seems to have been lost, no discussion.

Are you really trying to say that the majority of negative posts about H&M are nuanced? Really?

For the hard of understanding, it’s quite simple! If your thoughts and opinions about Morgan, Wootten, and Clarkson and their output concerning H&M, is anything but binary, then there is something very wrong!

Agreed! , I’m not a fan of starmer but it would be ridiculous not to acknowledge the good that he has done…just because 🤷‍♀️

🤣 , you are not getting it are you! , seems you are lacking in nuance! , just because you think these men are clearly “monsters “ doesn’t mean everyone else does! And even if they do agree, that doesn’t mean they are not entitled to form and hold their own opinion without being accused of being “ aligned” with them! .

So you haven’t come across them on MSM or SM where they are hugely prominent click bait …. but you find yourself here on some random thread in some random corner of the internet.👀Totally disingenuous.

What if you think Wooten’s content is ridiculous but you still think Harry and Meghan do many foolish things, also?

"for the hard of understanding"?
How patronising.
Also, fairly comical because you have completely and utterly failed to understand my point.
You've just made some strange, reductive and totally incorrect assumption.

Yes, that is what is seemingly, very difficult for some to comprehend.
Hitler and Keir analogies obviously misunderstood.

Dan Wootten is a very unpleasant man. He needs to get together with Jeremy Clarkson, Piers Morgan and all of them go for group therapy for their total obsession with Meghan (and Harry to some degree). I could name some other people who should join them too!

However, forgetting therapy they could try this.... "I'm a middle aged man with an embarrassing problem"

“I could name some other people who should join them too!”

How clever. Go ahead then.

I find it maddening that the most avid followers of H&M seem to view the world only in relationship to them.

If you like them you are good. If you criticize them in any way you are not.

Then there are those who treat William and Catherine as if they are a competing football team to Harry and Meghan.

if the threads on here are just people not liking them, I would hate to see what it would be like if they were hated.

I suppose it’s similar to “team Jacob “ and “team Edward “ 🤔 whereas a great many of us , including myself were “team it’s all crap “! 🤷‍♀️

Well there is a simple solution to that , if you hate particular threads , just don’t look at them! 🤷‍♀️

Absolutely hilarious that posters are bringing politics and Hitler in to a discussion about H&M… 😆. I would have thought that qualifies as the opposite of nuanced!

Yes, it's what we were saying about this very limiting binary approach. Some people put themselves in the public eye, and seek publicity. There's nothing wrong with that, but people will criticise. That's H&M. You can't be that kind of celebrity and think everyone will love you.
W&C are senior royals, many people disagree with their roles and activities, it's fine to criticise that. I'm sure they know that goes with the territory.
I think it's possible engage in discussions and be critical without being hateful.

You really don't understand.
Let me help you. These examples were used just as that. Not one person has compared H&M to Hitler, or to Keir Starmer.
I can't believe that you have failed to see that. However, perhaps you have, and you don't understand analogies.

Well this is usually because someone will say " oh you say they are not relevant yet people still talk about them" blah blah . People talk about many people for bad things. You live and die by the sword.

But do you think it’s rational that people attack William and Catherine because they believe doing so is a way to support Harry and Meghan?

Do you see them as binary choices, if you like one couple you must dislike the other?
