I have to chuckle over this ‘battle to win hearts in America.”
We have a noisy minority of Wokesters in this country. They control or controlled…the NYT, Wash Post, MSNBC, CNN, Twitter etc. That might seem like a formidable Army. The Markles thought so…and volunteered for Woke duty immediately! They have desperately tried , since invading Montecito, to move up the Woke chain of command. Has not happened though,,has it
At first, i think Hillary, etc…thought they might have usefulness. Oprah got sucked in. But Hillary is way too smart to go full-Woke...and I think she‘s pulled back. Oprah however, is now all in on the race angle…since she was traumatized that an exhausted shop girl didn’t show her a handbag at closing time.
Markle thinks of herself as the Diana of Woke. She believes every time she opens her mouth and explains how nasty and racist we all are and how perfect SHE is…that we swoon and cash her out. But Diana did not hector, insult, and criticize the public. Markle however thinks her own fecal matter has no odor and never shuts up about how much she admires herself.
What normal people call ‘word salad’ are actually Woke code words. It’s how they identify each other…and how we suss them out. All of America gets that…and it turns half of us off. Markle’s podcasts were curiosities but didn’t resonate because unWoke Americans recognize that Markle is just another shyster ‘preacher’ preying on the vulnerable to make a buck.
Love Trump or hate him, he exposed the Fake News in all its biased glory. . Unfortunately for the Markles, the sycophants in the Woke American media cannot move the needle for them now…they have their own problems. CNN is going through an employee bloodbath, because its viewership has been in the toilet. It is trying to reposition as a middle of the road. The NY Times, Washington Post…went so deep with their Trump hate, Woke ideology, and unidentified ‘sources’…that they are dismissed now as fake news rags by half the country. And the revelations coming out of Musk’s expose of Twitter backroom dealings are mind-boggling banana republic stuff…OMG…and still coming as I write this!
Anyway, there is no battle ‘for our hearts” to be won by Meghan and Harry here in the ole USA. I think this show will watched by many, many people…but the outcome will be ridicule and exposure. That will be a success for Netflix…but far, far from what this cheesy tiresome twosome wants.
