The fact that she's not "important" is exactly why these nutters target her, "how dare this unimportant uppity woman smear our very important royals" That's exactly the reason she could be an actual target.

Smearing the Royals is very far from the only reason she is disliked. Many anti - Royal's can't stand her.
You are quite right about nutters who may attack, but they could do that to any controversial figure, or indeed any innocent person, I really don't believe Meghan was in any particular danger, going by the security experts assessments.

I think most people in the public eye are at risk to a degree . You only have to see the flour bomb videos of celebrities to know that.

So basically you couldn't possibly know (especially as a very disliked celebrity) whether people literally wanted to kill her? That's what i said

I would say any one of Charles immediate family are at risk from nutters and that should never be downplayed. M & H may be a pain in the neck, but they are not doing the general public any harm and that should be remembered at all times. The Royal family are big enough and nasty enough to look after themselves

As always, I'm going to bet that those who are deliriously happy about South Park's "take down" for H&M didn't... Actually watch the episode at all... and thus have missed that it was aimed squarely at them too.

"Well it's a perfect summing up of them but THAT part about ME is totally off the mark, stupid show, stupid cartoon... ".

Exactly.

Also for those who don't know the show - there's a message in WHO they pick to be the one being unreasonable. In this case it's Kyle. When it's Kyle, the message is almost always that his feelings are "over the top self-righteousness" and he often has an inability to see himself clearly, while insisting that he can see the whole situation clearly.

:clap1: get 'em South Park.

Examples?

I'm not saying every anti-royal likes them, but I'd say that ranges from broad indifference to mild dislike (though I can imagine there's any anti-royal who doesn't appreciate how funny "Spare" is :laugh: ).

But those who "can't stand" her? I think that's mainly with the royalists and little-britaineers. No one else is all that invested.

I guess there's the run-of-the-mill misogynists but they can't stand any high profile female so that's moot.

Let’s be real, she hasn’t done anything that deserves the level of hatred that she gets. People have become so incensed by her that they don’t even know why they hate her.

I have seen so many interviewees on TV and radio saying things like "I'm no fan of the Royal family, but I can't have Meghan at all'. So that's the impression I get.
I don't think its down to Royalists or anti Royalists really, I think its about an individuals own moral code and what they consider tolerable and decent and authentic about a persons actions and that will be different for everyone depending on their own life experiences. :shrug:

The only thing the people who hate them have, are the things the right wing media have said they’ve done, rather than things she has actually, provably done, they rely on rumour and gossip to sustain their hatred of her

I don't hate her, I dislike her actions, and I know very well why I do.
Nobody goes on and on at you or anyone else for liking her, do you even know why you like her?

From my own opinion that as soon as she and Harry left royal duties there’s been a major and appalling hate campaign against them. I look at them through logical and rational eyes.

No you don't. That is much too simplistic and one - sided.
But bye for now, a pub lunch awaits. :wavey:

It’s the most simplistic way to think. Haven’t got time to be getting caught up in imaginary scenarios like you do

there is no doubt that many people took a dislike to H&M at the way they left the royal family, but that was years ago now. Their constant need to have their voices heard has pissed people off a lot more. I just dont want to hear anything about them ever again, that would make me very happy

Glenn. 23-02-2023 02:34 PM

Thinking about it, it started way before they left. I can remember the frightening entitlement when people couldn’t see their new born baby. They did things their way. They do things their way. That’s what people don’t like.

Don't forget about her cradling her baby bump for attention as well

They are a laughing stock and then Southpark came along and confirmed it

Job done

I know. I don’t think I’ve seen why the haters had such a problem with it? Jet? Any input? You are the expert on her

Well then I’ll leave you to your simple fairytale land of the perfect Duchess and her gallant Prince and I’ll carry on in the land of reality. Each to their own. :hee:
