The Harry and Meghan fuss

[hcblue95]

Some people in here are absolutely obsessed with Harry and Meghan. Funny thing is they will tell you they don't care about them.

You don't have to break rigid, inadequate race laws to be a racist. I think that's the bedrock of his point. There was a bloke who used to live on my Nana's street who had a BNP sticker on his car and frequently attended ultra-nationalist (Tommy Robinson) rallies, he also posted hurtful messages on social media when a family of Sikhs moved into a house opposite him. The police couldn't arrest him because he hadn't broken any laws. Is he not a racist because he's never been arrested?

I've said enough on this thread so I'm gonna give it a break but I will make one last point, and this I steadfastly believe; if Harry had married a white woman from an upper class background none of this would now be happening.

Appreciated your taking a breather but to ask; your example is someone who is clearly racist. Has Farage ever done this or something similar? It’s all degrees of separation.

Agree. However there was also an argument that leaving Saddam Hussein in power would have led to a better Iraq.

I do acknowledge, though, that Ratboy, Camelgob and Goldenballs take the subject to another level.

Downwards?

What did the Taliban think that an Apache gunner did in Afghanistan before Harry mentioned it?
All these establishment figures now saying he shouldn’t mention it need to remember the WW2 fighter aces who recorded their kills on the sides of their Spitfires and Hurricanes.
War is a dirty business and its participants have not kept quiet about their kills in the past but because it’s Harry then all of a sudden it’s wrong.
He was already a target because of his participation which is why he feels he needs security which was one of the reasons he said he went to the US because it was being withdrawn here.

Is this boasting? Was he boasting in 2013 when he spoke about it too?

Well, kicking a sleeping dog 10 years later hardly helps, does it?

Not even a lickspittle royal butler would argue that.

Maybe they are highly amused to see an over-privileged but dysfunctional family fling turds around in public.

You don’t need to care about them to enjoy the entertainment.

To be fair, it’s his autobiography so it would be more of a surprise if his time in Afghanistan isn’t mentioned

Also that poster was clearly a re-creation of a scene from an Auschwitz documentary.

Let‘s not replay Brexit or discuss Farage or other obsessions in this thread, please, FFS. There’s enough wind and piss on their dedicated threads, which some of us prefer to avoid.

This one’s about royalty, and press treatment of, not party political issues.
