#meghans opinions

A reminder that this is Meghan. She has shown time and time her true character and her heart. A loving, supportive wife and someone who looks for the good, who connects with people and makes them feel seen, with kindness and compassion and grace.

This is Meghan. She's shown this then, now and always. She knows her heart and her worth, and so does Harry. Believe her actions not the media's words.

Can i be a hater for a second. If i have to hear mother by meghan trainor again i am actually going to hunt her down for sport

[royallyquestionable]

Some news outlets are clearly biased. They favour one of these two ladies over the other and will write overwhelmingly positive stories, no matter what said royal is doing.

Others seem to switch things up. News could be positive for months on end, followed by negative stories for a period of time.

Debate is always rife on social media about whether Kate or Meghan are actually the most popular. Or perhaps even whether Meghan can even be classed as a royal at all.

Anyone debating this has most likely already picked a side anyway and in all likelihood will not be moved.

To make matters more confusing, it’s not like we can tell by how many followers they have or the number of fans posting in their favourite royal lady’s support. There are simply too many bot accounts out there.

The reality is that they both have popularity. The spotlight might move from one to another, depending on what they’re doing at the time but the shift is only ever temporary.

News outlets have their role to play in making popularity feel more important than it actually is. They want to make us feel like one of these ladies has to be more important, more popular than the other.

If they’re friendly with either Kate or Meghan, their chosen lady will always be conveyed as the winner. If they’re not, then it will shift with their mood. They’re tricky beasts who know that if for example, they write about Kate being the most popular royal out there, Kate fans will read it, just out of curiosity. Meghan fans will read it to complain about how bias the press is.

The same is true in reverse. If Meghan receives praise, Meghan fans will want to read the story, while Kate fans will read it and say how fake she is.

I’m not saying that is true of all fans. Many out there will simply shrug off these stories all together and take a more relaxed view. But those who engage on social media in the debates and arguments that follow are the ones that drive these stories. Their arguments and link sharing mean that more clicks, and therefore revenue will be generated for the news outlets. It creates an endless cycle of stories, designed to keep people enraged about the way their favourite is being portrayed.

The cycle would fall apart if they were both receiving overwhelming good or bad press. There always has to be the good versus the bad. But does it reflect reality?

Spare: This Has Now Become Ridiculous.

I honestly didn’t really feel any kind of way about Meghan and Harry.  I don’t follow the modern royal family that closely in general. But now. Harry has now lost me. I think they have seriously overestimated how sympathetic the American public (lets be honest they don’t really care about the Brits) is towards them. At this point they are the driving for in the drama and if they really wanted to move on then they should stop whining and milking the situation for money and attention. It’s hard to feel that sorry for them and a feud they are full participants in, when milk costs $4, and I had to drive all over the state to find formula for my baby last spring.

So this is what I’ve gotten the leaks, and I’ve read all of them. 

1. Harry is a victim.

Nothing is ever his fault, someone else was always involved. He is always the victim. Charles is crappy parent, Camilla is the evil stepmother, William is jealous of everything he does. Everyone is just so mean to him and he never does anything wrong. The Nazi costume revelation is a prime example. It wasn’t entirely his fault, because somebody else told him to do it.

2. It feels very embellished.

Did he get into a physical fight with his brother? Maybe. It wouldn’t surprise me. Did it happen in the dramatic and one sided fashion he describes it? I doubt it. The scene described is something out of a soap opera or a bad melodrama. I also don’t buy that Meghan was not mad just ‘sad and disappointed’ that’s absolute bullshit concocted to make her seem like more sympathetic. If my brother-in-law assaulted my husband, I’d be pissed and rightfully so. I also don’t buy the pub sexscapade or that he visited a psychic to communicate with his dead mother as being wholly factual. 

3. Nobody asked.

There are two penis related revelations in this book. We also get to hear about his cocaine use, how he lost his virginity behind a pub, and that he watched Meghan’s Suits sex scenes. Nobody asked. Oversharing doesn’t make you more relatable. It just adds a layer of cringe.

Anyways. Heres hoping Harry and his frostbitten penis will now vanish into obscurity. And I will now go back to what I’m actually interested in. History.

I’m really tired of the funeral stuff so I decided to catch up on some podcasts this week and a lot of them discussed Meghan’s interview in The Cut and there’s a wide range of opinions about her and the BRF in all of the podcasts and none of them were truly anti Sussex and the one thing that most of them mentioned is the cringe or something inauthentic about certain parts so what I want from the Sussexes post funeral is some new PR. I don’t know if that means hiring new people or just going in a different direction but something isn’t right and now would be a great time to fix it.

[megandzane]

This faux outrage from fans is still annoying. No offense, but how have you still not caught on by now. Wait for the full context. The tabloids will always put their own salacious angle on it to generate hate.

H&M aren’t worried what sad people think about them, why are you? Just let them live

A republican's view on monarchy (having lived under two different ones)

I was born in a country with an European monarchy that's never worked. They don't engage particularly with their citizens, they have a minority support in the country and their frequent scandals and troubles with the law make us all quite sick of them. And still we now have a new monarch who even I have to admit is an incredibly respectable, knowledgeable person who truly cares about our country and to see this monarch representing my country out there, with all their knowledge, wisdom, elegance and diplomacy is incredible. And as much as I wish my birth country was a Republic, I have to admit that we couldn't have a better representative than the monarch we have right now. And that's important when it comes to international relationships. You don't want a Donald Trump to be representing your country and making all the neighbours furious.

Then I moved to Britain, so I've never lived outside a monarchy. And in Britain, I found a monarchy that works. I learned that sometimes, in very specific cases, monarchies can be a phenomenal option. In Britain, people adored Queen Elizabeth. I mean, she was an incredible, respectable woman. She solved countless diplomatic issues in the country, improved Britain's international relationships with every country they had relations with, solved social crises, truly cared about Britain, represented the hard-working female in a world of men, showed a tremendously resilient and strong character people were proud of, served Britain in the military as a car mechanic during WWII, never gave a scandal, never caused a problem, never embarrassed Brittons. And when there were hard times and she spoke, people really felt comforted by her. And that's without mentioning that she and her family worked on thousands of events annually (particularly famous is the case of Princess Anne, the most hard working royal after her mum!) And hundreds of them are supporting charities. Like, until I came to Britain I had never even heard of royals who give millions to charity, to culture, to health... they kept funding and funding great things with their own money, and using their faces to draw attention towards things worth supporting, such as less known charities, or social centres and theatres. And I had to admit that family was doing great things for Britain, much better than I'm sure any politician would. And King Charles, who I deeply dislike? Even I have to admit he's a champion for environmental causes, has spent his life pushing politicians (even when he was supposed to be impartial) to have a more environmentally friendly country with more love towards foreigners, more respect for culture and a more modern and cheaper monarchy. He's already even made plans to slim down the monarchy to make it cheaper for the citizens, and to scale down his coronation and he won't take the Queen's currency from circulation so as not to cause trouble to people. He's not stupid and neither is William. And I have to admit that I do believe William and Kate will make for tremendously great monarchs one day. They're what the country needs and wants. Loyal leaders who aren't full of arrogance and greed and who don't cause problems, don't hurt the national image and aren't thirsty for attention.

And yes Britain has an incredibly colonial past, like nearly every country worldwide. Even those who weren't colonialists, have been thirsty for territory. Look at the US, which has always been at war with someone, intervening heavily in other countries (and not really for the better, look at Iraq or Syria) and having military bases worldwide. Or China, or Russia. Everybody has been thirsty for more territory. But you can't look at monarchs by how they treat other citizens in other countries. They serve their own. And what really counts is how they serve their own people, who are actively hiring them to do what's best for their own country.

And in that aspect, I understand people's fury towards Harry and Meghan. Imagine you live in Sussex for example. You've got these nobles, these dukes, who carry the name of your homeland but have never lived in Sussex nor done anything for Sussex. And for years they even got your money from taxes. And now they leave the country they ought to serve, and instead of not causing trouble, not embarrassing the nation, and nicely representing Britain and improving the image of Britain worldwide and improving international relations, they do the whole opposite. Betray their family (they're at war with pretty much both of their families as a whole), get paid millions for venting out all the family secrets and dramas, betray the trust of relatives who didn't know their private conversations would be made public, and attack Britain's arguably most important institutions constantly. Always whining about their problems. And you're in Sussex, feeling betrayed and hurt, seeing these entitled people complaining non stop, thirsting for money and attention while you can hardly afford to live. I mean, how can someone not be furious at them? I assure you people I'm Britain have very little shits left to give about the Sussexes.

People in Britain are struggling with Brexit, massive economic crises, a year that's seen the most massive strikes in history, crumbling public services and rising inflation and cost of living crisis. People in Britain don't need privileged nobility complaining about how hard their lives are and getting all the attention, when the headlines should be their country's real issues.

I pulled cards for MM and PH’s marriage. In the weekend I won’t be able to type it but I’ll try as soon as possible.

Little sneek peak. I pulled the 2 of Cups rx, The Tower and the Magician rx after each other. Troubled and violent times are coming (not necessarily physically!) Maybe we cannot even imagine what’s next in the Montecito Saga. 😬

No rescue came for Mary Queen of Scots nor Anne nor that poor deluded ditz Katheryn Howard,

JD I got some good tea for ya🤭🥸🤫😂😂❤️

Love ya Max

YO MAX!

Tom Bower is coming to America, yippie! He should be making the morning circuit.

Ladies, hold on to your fascinators. It's only a few chapters, but book two is auspicious.

The wicked witch of the west is going to fall from grace.

As you may know, I'm constantly researching many topics. One is homesteading. Spotify has employed Youtube to spread MM's podcast.

Homesteaders don't care about Meghan Narckle. She preaches globalism, and it's something we all hate. It's a quick skip ad!

They must be desperate to get their money back. Dummies, never trust a Narc.

Thank you, Max, for all you do!

Love, JD 😜💖💋🤟🏻

Buckingham Palace is not protecting Meghan, they didn’t before, and they’re certainly not doing it now. I think they are protecting those staff members who made those bullying allegations, because those staff members have yet to leak anything that proves that Meghan is actually a bully. Feeling “humiliated” and saying “you can’t stop trembling”- without saying WHY or in the case of their bully allegations, saying WHAT Meghan did to humiliate you or make you tremble, would not look good, legally, for any of them.

If you are accusing someone of bullying, and you cannot or have not proven how that person is bullying you, you are very much defaming their character. No one is stopping those aids from leaking what they shared in that review, or who conducted that review, etc. No one is stopping them from calling up Valentino Low from The Times like they did right before Meghan interview with Oprah. But they haven’t. They haven’t shared anything else, other than feeling humiliated. That should tell you something.

I’m an employee. If I felt like my boss was bullying me, I would have to say HOW. That is literally the second sentence after accusing someone of bullying.

I listened to this week’s Archtypes podcast with Paris Hilton and I couldn’t connect with it. Maybe I have to listen again but on first listen the bimbo thing kind of got lost and it was more like a normal Paris Hilton interview to me down to promoting her NFT. The stuff with Paris talking about the abusive school she went to her fight to get legislation passed was interesting I just personally felt the main topic got lost in there some where.
