I know it’s been mentioned quite a bit up thread but what gets me so annoyed about all this is people on Twitter are just ignoring all the glaring contradictions and jumping to ‘let’s protect defenceless Meghan from the racists’.
I’ve tried to come up with a list, each time makes me think “were you lying then or are you lying now?”
Sorry for length, there are a lot! So far I have:
- No one supported or looked after Meghan. In the engagement interview they talk about how great the family had been, how they are the family she never had. Which one is it?
- How Meghan is this poor, delicate, defenceless little woman. Did they not big up how experienced she was at the start? How she could take the media attention in her stride, how she’s an independent businesswoman in her own right, a feminist. So why now the spiel that she wouldn’t say boo to a goose? Which one is it? Power woman would-be POTUS or pathetic spineless victim who needs wrapping in cotton wool? She can’t be both!
- Her passports were taken away. Well she still managed to hop on planes to see serena, Italy, google conference and of course the baby shower with no issues! I really don’t like the implication she’s trying to get with this, like it was akin to modern slavery where victims have their passports taken.
- She couldn’t get any mental health support.She refused the royal doctors for her pregnancy and instead chose her own- you’re telling me she couldn’t do the same for a psychiatrist or therapist?
- She couldn’t go out for lunch. She was pictured out at a lunch meeting in ripped jeans quite early on.
- Archie not getting a title. Originally they said they wanted a normal life for him and that he’d been offered a title and they refused. Which one is it?
- They were forced to leave the royal family because of how toxic it was. Their original manifesto states that they very much DID want to stay in the royal family, just on their terms. They left on their own, without telling anyone. The royal family were blindsided and called a summit.
- Harry was cut off financially. Did they not say themselves they wanted to ‘work to become financially independent’?
- The royal family ‘firm’ is terrible but the queen is amazing and they stay in touch regularly. So kind, she even covered Meghan with a blanket. The queen is the head of ‘the firm’ they claim to so despise. They talk about it like it’s this dark entity functioning in its own right- if the queen is blameless then who is their vitriol actually aimed at then?
- Meghan is like the little mermaid finding her voice. She’s not shut up since she joined so I beg to differ! Besides, if you’re part of an organisation, any organisation for that matter, anything you say whilst working for said organisation ultimately does need to be approved by those in charge. Any organisation would want to have some kind of control- its basic PR! And is completely normal! I wouldn’t expect to go spouting off whilst being considered a spokesperson for my place of work, I’m sure it was the same when she did panels for suits, she’s representing them, so why would she think it would be any different in the royal family?
- She lost her father. She blocked his number and cut off all contact.
- She didn’t know about Harry, the royal family or what was expected of her. Yet we are constantly fed the narrative that she is highly intelligent and educated. Educated woman couldn’t operate Google? Or even feel curious enough to do so? If you're telling me no one informed her of what to do or what to expect, why didn’t she take the initiative herself? ‘Hit the ground running’ so to speak, and conduct her own research? If she didn’t then she comes across rather pathetic. But then we also have the rumours that she had Diana’s book, watched her wedding and the picture outside Buckingham palace! So was she completely ignorant in the picture, or is she lying now?
- They were married 3 days before and didn’t want a big wedding. Why the tiara gate then? Air fesheners, dress fitting drama, why a giant train on the veil and not a subtle tasteful modest outfit like camilla etc etc
- Kate made her cry not the other way round. We’ve had reports that she made Kate cry, and that her rudeness to staff prompted Kate to intervene. We were told Kate sent her flowers and ‘it wasn’t enough’ (finding freedom). Rumour that she made Charlotte cry too. But allllll those reports are false and Meghan’s word is the right one.
That’s all I can think of for now- any I have missed??
