I know. Maybe being a masochist is an employment requirement.

He can be a right plonker, but he has a great turn of phrase, that article made me chuckle

If Meghan did everything 'right' in the eyes of people who have forgotten that it's 2020 and not 1820, the media would accuse her of being a pretender, or trying to upstage Kate etc. If Kate and Will stepped away from their roles as Harry and Meg had, Kate would be cheered for putting her family first, if Kate did all the stuff that Meghan did, she would be championed as someone who was modernising the role she had been given.

Meghan's treatment is proof that people of colour have to work twice as hard for just a fraction of what white people can get with ease. I have no doubt that the vitriol aimed at Meghan is based almost purely in race.

Really thought provoking post Dezzy.

Quite an eye opener because it's obviously painting the scenario factually.

The majority of people judge others by their character and their actions, not their colour. It seems thats a hard concept for you to grasp.

It's absolutely laughable.

Kate only has to breathe to be lauded as perfect.

Anything she does that is against usual protocol is glossed up as "modernising" the Royal family and romanticised to the hilt. Anything Meghan does is "disobedient" and "upsetting" everyone else.

If you're dislike is based on nothing more than race based mudslinging it is, yes.

A dislike based on the opinion of a reporter whose job is to sensationalise, fabricate and bait clicks.

Nobody on here has based their opinion on the colour of her skin...but the same old always put it down to that.
Everything we know about the Royal family comes via documentaries, Reporters and what we see with our own eyes. Not ALL reporters sensationalise and fabricate stories....some of us educate ourselves from other material other than the daily rags but your repetitive line of defence is that we base our opinions on what the papers say....

Well, when pushed all Jet ever provides is Daily Mail links. So...

Also nobody said you have based anything on the colour of her skin, you've based it on the malicious gossip spread by a racist media who bank on gullible people like you.

It's a recurring theme on this forum. Thank goodness I don't know anyone personally - family, friends or colleagues who have that narrow - minded mindset.
