    British Royals Racist?

    "Well, well, well... an institution that spent centuries exporting and profiting from white supremacy is... racist."

    CNN: When Winfrey asked why Meghan thought the royal family didn't want to give Archie a title or security, she revealed that race had been a concern within the institution.

    There were several "concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he was born," she said.

    "So, “The Institution” of Buckingham Palace and the Royal Family sounds like Scientology with an accent. Authoritarian, domineering, controlling, punitive..."

    "So, Harry’s family cut them off entirely financially in early 2020 and left them without security protection.They made it through thanks to what Diana left to Harry... which Harry took as a sign Diana knew that day would come.Wild. This has been wild."

    "Ironically, I think the most damaging thing in the Oprah intvw was Harry’s description of the terrified co-dependency the Palace has with tabloids.Tabloids and their readers are weirdly analogous to Repubs and MAGA: terrified of angering the base; appeasing them requires racism."


    ...I'm shocked SHOCKED! I tell you...

    I heard a senior royal referred to her as 'Harrys showgirl'.
    But racist? of course.

    One suspects she's overplaying the race card a tad.

    It's almost like they expect people on the other side of the world to give a fcuk, and start discussion threads on the internet about a minor branch.

    Parasitism can form a symbiosis with the host in that in return for sustenance the parasite can provide a service. The British taxpayer pays for the royal family and its burgeoning brood in return for which its elected establishment exploits mawkish sentiment for its own benefit and the wider community can exploit the trappings of their social infestation - castles, palaces, associated historical residue including martial parades and ceremonies - by deriving tourist revenue therefrom

    The Meghan/Harry parasite offered no dividend except as fodder for idle speculation and gossip, but earned its place in return for assisting in the manning ofthe daily showboating grind parading the royal family in a quasi titular leadership role engaging the masses through utterly redundant appearances and futile patronage.
    Trouble was the female vector of this particular parasitic mutation transpired to be a deluded self-indulgent nobody with ideas far and away above her station, exceeding her meagre talents and abilities and when ostracised by the other parasites she threw a sulk and returned to her own environment. Speculation over the complexion of their offspring was only natural given that she was the product herself of miscegenation and in such cases a throwback to a deeper hue can often appear.

    Harry truly is making an arse out of himself but who gives a shit.

    When she tires of his redundancy and he gets fed up with poncing around as her escort.

    It's hard to imagine that an institution built on the very notion of inequality and which profited from exporting institutional racism could be racist.

    .... Billions in tourism revenue from seppos, chinkies and nips paying to visit Buck House and buy an extremely expensive "I love Princess Diana" memorial tea set made for peanuts in Chinastan.

    Harry. Was he cut off before or after he left? Didn't he announce he didn't want to be, or work as, a Royal. No work no fee?

    I thinks its so sweet that they have had the ability to bare all in front of Doctor Oprah and get it all out there in that "Tugging at the heart strings" fashion so beloved across the pond. They have certainly shone the spotlight on the nasty British Royal institution which is clearly in need of a more modern approach to snowflakery and hopefully her Maj will make amends with a heartfelt apology for not having taken account of the cockoos feelings.

    Listening to radio today, the Beeb is taking great delight in dragging up all sorts or right-on ladies to offer their opinion on how the Queen done bad - fooking hilarious but the Americans will be lapping it up.

    I think they tolerated him because he was popular. Vet, Invictus Games, etc. But once he decided the royal life wasn't for him, well that was the straw that broke the camels back I reckon.

    Not to mention that after reports of paying a $9M fee, Oprah got shafted out of her exclusive when Harry did the the open top bus tour/interview with that talk show host/comedian last week...
