Who would have thought that people with an irrational hatred of someone who doesn't really affect their lives at all do so in bad faith. I'm shocked, truly.

The endless oxymorons around Meghan Markle are a scream in themselves. She's just 'some actress' that's too big for her boots, but when the narrative calls for it, she's some sort of James Bond-esque Femme Fatale that's out to ensnare a prince and destroy life as we knows it, but she's not that smart, she's just a gold digger after all, but you can't underestimate her because she's a culture war missile out to nuke everything we know and love!!!!

He looks very young and the likelihood of him actually remembering this is very slim so people's outrage and calling it lying is obviously over the top - although it is technically untrue, which he may himself be surprised to find out I suppose. I doubt he was lying, so much as not remembering doing things like that with his dad. There's a suggestion that there are "tonnes" of these photographs but the only ones I;ve seen look like they were all taken on the same day.

Regardless, people are laser-focussing on it in bad faith: he's using it as an illustrative example, all he's REALLY saying is "I don't remember spending much time as a family when I was a kid and I want things to be different for my children". Countering with "Aha! See you DID spend some time with your family!!" is really nit-picking. It's like someone saying "I was always unhappy in my marriage right from the start" and then someone else saying "AHA here's a picture of you smiling and laughing together - explain that!!" as evidence that not every single minute was misery. It's supposed to be a "gotcha", but it's only that to people who have expremely black & white thinking, either through inability for more nuanced consideration or just the usual banal pantomime where people pretend they don't get it.

Yeah It's very easy to form a narrative especially when people don't like them , there was a documentary on TV the other week about the royals and I remember seeing a moment where Harry was looking away from Meghan and Meghan was looking forward.

It would be so easy to twist that footage to say something like "ohhh look they're not happy with eachother" and blah blah. When really Harry is just looking at something and Meghan is just looking forward in that moment .

People also see what they want to see , and as you said an unhappy childhood isn't necessarily going to reflect that in pictures for goodness sake. People put on smiles and they try to cover up sadness .

Cancel culture isn’t a real thing it’s just a branding technique big names use to deflect from critisism

Things that those complaining about 'woke cancel culture' tried to ban:
Video games
Rock music
Sex scenes in TV and Film
Violent movies
Rap Music
Harry and Meghan
TV shows that dared to show a same sex kiss in the 90s/00s
Tik Tok
and much much more!
