Kate has class, Meghan is nothing but crass.
A real toxic and gold-digger, and a stain on the royal family. I hope she and Harry are really proud of themselves.
shareA real toxic and gold-digger, and a stain on the royal family. I hope she and Harry are really proud of themselves.
shareI can't wait to see what happens when she dumps Harry for a new rich guy when he's no longer useful to her. She has a history of doing that to people. I suspect he's gonna explode, go back to England, and never show his face in public again.
shareWell, it's plain as day that Meghan has used people before and turned against her own family. She's a sociopath. And yes, I see nothing but misery for Harry in the future. He's being used! Of course, he's never been the brightest tool in the shed and the rebel (or stain) in the Royal Family.
shareSad, but true. I wanted so badly to believe he was the charming prince everyone claimed he was, that he was fun, classy, and more than just "the spare." I wanted to believe that he had been tricked and needed "saving" from this bitch, and it's possible he does, whether he deserves it or not. But after reading up on the stuff the palace would prefer people didn't know about him, I'm starting to wonder if he and Meghan truly were made for each other, and that isn't a compliment.
shareAlso, I'm not sure whether Harry would be welcome back here in the UK. The polls have shown people's disgust with Harry and Meghan (Me gain). Then again, I'm not sure if he would be allowed to stay in the US if (sorry, when) they divorce.
shareHis family will welcome him back, but they will never trust him again. They love him very much, but after what he's done, they cannot possibly reinstate him back the way he was. He'll be forced to hide from the public like his uncle Andrew, to save face for himself and his family. He will also need a lot of therapy after being the victim of a malignant narcissist like Meghan. I suspect he will never try marrying again after dealing with her.
Word on the street is, he's now cheating on her. I don't know if this is true, but he's either very stupid, or Meghan's possibly setting him up (as well as using mind games) so she would have grounds for divorcing him.
I would not be the least bit surprised.
shareDoesn’t matter she won and Kate lost.
shareWhat did she win? The Eurovision Song Contest?
shareI was about to post something along those lines myself.
shareShe put a massive spotlight in the problematic elements of British royalty particularly when it comes to race. Kate and company will now be forced to grapple with that in public.
shareHow are they problematic? On the Harry board you wrote yourself it's a toxic ideology. I am confused, could it possibly be that you are contradicting yourself?
shareIt is toxic yes but that doesn't mean they can't be problematic. They are and Kate is the pinnacle of white female privilege.
shareThat puts my concerns at ease.
shareWhat concerns?
shareWhite privilege
shareEvery white person has white privilege.
shareThat's how it should be.
sharewhy?
shareNot every white person has white privilege.
We can take a case: orphan serbian girl, both parents killed in the civil war. House destroyed, dirt poor.
A country with a history of war, occupation by a POC empire (the ottoman empire) which killed and enslaved her people for centuries.
A country with a population that is 99.9% white.
Where is her "white privilege"???
Notice the imbecile couldn't answer that. Saying someone is a product of white privilege is racist itself. Race has nothing to do with privilege.
sharenah she'll still have far more opportunities in the near future to build worthwhile connections and relationships with good people due to her white privilege status. At which point people will say she is "empowered" and "strong" for "overcoming" her past. Because that's what white privilege is, getting more opportunities and social gains than your other nonwhite counterparts that are in similar situations that put in just as much or even more work than you do while dealing with dirty racists every time they're in public.
shareMore opportunities than WHO?
Obama? (yes, he is black).
A black kid in a country with a population that's 99% black?
A korean kid in south korea (which is 99.99% asian)?
Obviously more opportunities than other minorities in similar situations that come from broken families and deal with racism constantly from police, educational system, businesses, while also dealing with negative influences in the areas they live in. The other examples are irrelevant since we're living in a diverse society. The only reason it was able to be built in the first place was from taking resources and capital from other countries and using it here; hence it makes it completely unjustified for average to below average white people to be able to get by in life on white privilege while the rest have to deal with trash racists in public areas constantly.
shareYou're missing the main point: there are virtually no minorities there.
So her white privilege is non-existent in her context. And again, you are talking about majority white locations. A white in black majority area would be disadvantaged in compared with the locals. Like a white individual in bronx would have a harder time than a black individual in a white neighborhood and would be exposed to a higher degree of racism.
"The only reason it was able to be built in the first place was from taking resources and capital from other countries and using it here; hence it makes it completely unjustified for average to below average white people to be able to get by in life on white privilege"
This is 100% false for a lot of white countries. Like all east Europe: we never took anything from others, others have been constantly taken resources from us. Even people of color have taken resources from us or enslaved us (turks = ottomans which are quite brown/middle easterners). Read some history ffs and stop being ignorant.
Are you so racist to consider that ALL whites have the exact same background???
even a homeless white guy in the street has far more potential due to his white privilege. compared to homeless minorities who get treated like trash by racists everywhere they go, white homeless people are able to get away with going out to public places without being kicked out or treated badly. They can yell and shout and scream and get away with it. That's the power of white privilege --- being able to get away with antisocial behaviors that minorities would never be able to. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me.
shareStop thinking US exclusively, whites and blacks and other races are NOT just in the US.
What you describe and you fail to understand is NOT white privilege but MAJORITY privilege.
Get your white privilege in a brazilian favela and see what happens. Or get your white privilege in a gipsy village.
Or even get your white privilege in black community in the USA and see how well you'll fare.
Guess what: a white guy in a poor black community is, arguably, worse than a black guy in a white community. And it's not that he is the subject of racism but even violence.
Quick story: some white girls went to a black church and got kicked out, almost literally kicked, while the black girls in the community were shouting "did you come to steal our men, white trash?"
What problems? She's your typical 'I didn't get my way so everyone is racist' slag. Deal with it.
