The difference being, people are forming opinions of Meghan and Harry on gossip they read in newspapers, if anyone can name one actual thing they’ve done wrong that we’ve seen for ourselves, it might be a tad different

A lot of difference. Just because you want to defend making personal comments about Harry and Meghan doesn't change it.

An opinion on who was right or wrong in an argument over cider on Big Brother is vastly different to assuming you know what a housemate is like as a parent in the real world for example.

If the comments were restricted to what she did in a documentary that would be fair enough.

It's not. It starts to veer off into the fantasy story writing of what she said to Harry off camera and how she controls him and everyone around her.

The entire media backlash she received was based on gossip about what she'd done "behind closed doors" conveniently enough.

They're celebs in the public eye, some will like them, some wont. Their situation is far from revolutionary. When you're in the public eye (which obviously they're dong their best to avoid lol) scrutiny comes with the territory.

So did you not think the Documentary they made about the the atrocities in SA was fitting for them to sabotage it and make it all about them?

That's fine, comment on what you see. But, again, make up fairy stories about what people think is happening behind closed doors then your "opinion" becomes laughable.

It's astounding to me that the most questionable people are currently in power that have made catastrophic decisions and shocking statements in recent times and the focus for some is the Queens grandson and his missus?

Make a thread and debate them...but this thread is about Harry and Meghan.

Listen up folks.... make sure you only form an opinion about what you see with your own eyes and hear with your own ears from now on concerning the lovely Sussex’es.
No Con papers!
No Channel 5 documentaries!
No biographies!
No royal editors!
No royal correspondents!
No News channels!
Stay away from the evil because you might be tempted to decide what seems likely and whats not, come to your own conclusions you gullible thicko's and horror of horrors, POST about it!

Do this instead:
Use your eyes to see them presenting themselves in the best light when appearing in public!
Use your ears to hear them saying things in public they want you to hear!

This is a dictatorship! Freedom of speech is not on if I don't agree!
This is the criteria from now on!
This isn’t a discussion forum you know, you fools!

I think it could be called an interesting enough diversion. You seem to assume that what all people worry and really care about in their real lives are what they choose to post about on a forum. Nope.

It’s utterly ridiculous to think you need to know someone personally to have an opinion on them.

Because if that where true those saying it, can’t have an opinion on any one or anything they don’t personally know.

The weakest argument in the history of the world.

Well your in these threads giving your two cents and defending them while the world is turning so what does it mean.

It’s astounding that you can’t see that you think when you talk about them its acceptable but if any one else talks about them it’s not.

I haven't made any presumptions as to their motives for any actions have I?...
All I highlighted is the reluctance to believe bad press about some people but swallow every word about others, that astounds me .
Have an opinion, that's not a problem, it's when entire imagined scenarios are played out as actual events it gets a tad worrying.

no one person ever controls the narrative, if people want to debate things that others feel are trivial, that is their right. No-one decides what is worth discussion and what is not

People are more than happy to hear opinions if it’s the same as theirs just remember it’s a big brother forum not the United Nations

..on the ‘guest viewing’ bit...I’ve often seen guests viewing threads like ‘on bit in the slide tonight’...etc...I see you controlled those threads quite nicely...
