No one suggests all the irrational hate is about Meghan's family lineage, I think we're just suggesting that there would be an interesting Venn diagram between racist knuckledragging mouth breathers, and those that pretend this obsession is part of some higher calling about character.

Anti Monarchist John Humphrey's takes swipe at Meghan

Humphrys, who was frustrated by one specific guest, fumed: “You did manage to squeeze your old friend Oprah onto the invitation list.

“I say 'old friend' but I believe you'd met her only once before the wedding.”

Humphrys sarcastically remarked “how fortunate” Meghan was “to make friends so easily.”

In a YouGov article last year, he suggested the actress may have been “misinformed” about “joining the Royal Family”.

He wrote: “It was supposed that in marrying him and joining the Royal Family, Meghan Markle fancied a bit of hand-shaking too.

“Why else would she join since that’s what they ‘do’?

“It would now appear that she thought she could become a duchess and an HRH (Her Royal Highness) without having to put on the white gloves.”

This.
When the vast majority of the anti-Meghan ire is about her personal relationship to her own dad, how she touches her own stomach and what things she spends her own money on then it becomes fairly obvious.

...John Humphreys, Piers Morgan, Jeremy Clarkson...I’m sure there are more, I can’t recall those males who all seem to have such dry definite and strong opinions of how a young female should conduct her life ...(...and also pitting other females in comparisons of the ‘approved ones’...and how she should behave in terms of her friendships, her marriage, her pregnancies, her father, her sister, her husband’s family etc, her income...and on and on and on ...and so many older males as well...I’m finding it difficult to ignore how uncomfortably misogynist it’s all feeling...and very ‘patriarchy’...

He had plenty to say about Harry as well, if you read the article

I actually can agree with what you're saying, I hadn't thought of it in that way but the names of those individuals piling in against Meghan Markle there, I mean honestly Clarkson too, truly awful man in my view,.
Certainly does come across very uncomfortably.

The fact Clarkson and Morgan themselves have long been morally repulsive makes it all the more laughable.

Getting themselves off on picking at every little thing this woman does, when no matter what she has done, the worst she's been accused of is still nothing compared to some of the actions these two cretins are guilty of.

I intensely dislike Clarkson.
I refuse to read anything he says in the main, and never watch anything he's doing on TV.

Even stopped watching Who Wants to be a Millionaire since he took it on.
I just have no interest in his bigotry and sick prejudices whatsoever.

Virtue signallers just can’t help putting labels on people whose opinions they don’t approve or they don’t even attempt to understand. You can’t just dislike someone like Meghan because their actions have led you to really believe they are manipulative, selfish, disloyal, self - absorbed, disruptive, divisive etc. Oh no.
Because that might mean the person who is disliked is at fault and not the disliker, and they could never admit that. So if you don’t like Meghan Markle, you are a this or a that or many this’s and thats.

The self righteous love their labels,very useful little tools they are! It saves them from actually disputing what is said by the ‘haters’ (another label) with actual opinions and facts about why they like her actions and character and actually give reasons why they believe we are wrong about her.
Nope, it’s just “Why should we judge her, but we sure as hell will judge you”!

Yep, grown ass woman hitting 40 in a few months and she is perceived as a young vulnerable girl by many who have bought into her 'victim' narrative.

Well, when you have nothing to add, take issue with someone using the word young to describe a 39 year old woman.
