    I'll have to look for the video of that. Do you think that's true, that "they" were all worried about the child's appearance? Smells like bullshit to me. I have two g-kids of mixed race; what they looked like before they were hatched, other than their health and t heir cuteness, never occurred to me. Bet it doesn't to anyone else either.

    It's the British Monarchy. Apparently run by 'the Firm', some institutional outfit that tries to maintain an 'Official Appearance' (think Disneyland and a Castle) and their concern over the 'color' of the next Princeling. It would seem logical that some old 'Royal Family' would want their lineage to stay 'pure'.

    It's also the 21st Century. So, two young people (the Prince and the Commoner) that want to get married, get married. They try playing their assigned roles at Buckingham Palace (think characters at Disneyland) but they fall a little short, so are hounded until they 'quit' (unlike Disneyland, you can't fire them).

    Great Theater! I was waiting for Oprah to jump up, set her hair on fire, and begin screaming 'in tongues'.

    (I always thought Oprah was a 'Reporter' rather than an 'Actress')

This is no time to draw attention to herself given that the story of how she got so wealthy and powerful flies right in the face of the Revolution which claims the systematic oppression of blacks, and the racism of whites, when it was overwhelmingly whites who adored and elevated Oprah. She needs to do her job, to get in and out without giving people a reason to target her.

    I have not seen any leaking on this interview, those who know what is in it have stayed quiet, CBS it has been reported invested about $10 million into this project, they want their eyeballs. The non working royals claim that they are not taking any money which makes me wonder where the almost $10 million is going, and if they are lying.

    I tend to doubt that the goal here is to lob shells at The Firm, I think the goal here is to sell The Misses as a strong black woman and the Mr as the perfect modern man as they get ready to finally go full speed ahead to launch their brand as the pandemic seems to be ending. I expect a small apology for Meghans abuse of staff, "The tone could have been better, but we are so gosh darn committed!". I dont expect to learn anything about how they got a huge multi building spread in a very popular place for the wealthy for $15 million when a decade ago it sold for $25 million, a Russian gave them that awesome deal, I would like to know why he did.

    Even though I dont think that they especially go after The Firm for the first time in like forever I feel bad for Charles, a guy who all of his life has been a colossal worker in support of Crown and Country, a guy who went far out of his way to make Meghan feel a part of the family and to give her a say in things. It has to just kill him to see Harry and Meghan turn their backs on both Crown and Country as they chase wealth and power from America. As he watches them both claim that his family is toxic, that the obligations which Charles has honored are too outrageous to fulfil.
    My thoughts, who gives a shit.

    I've always thought of her as an "entertainer." Remember a few years back when ppl were toying with the idea of her running for POTUS? lol

    Well, she was very entertaining for the 15 minutes that I watched.
    (I changed the channel and watched 'Allen v. Farrow' on HBO. An interesting series on Woody Allen and his 12 year relationship with Mia Farrow ... and 2 of her adopted children)

    As I pointed out elsewhere, 'the Firm' is the Queen plus the large number of royal family members. If you want a very boring life, marry one of them. If you want to change everything by joining something, try the Mafia or the Chinis couple whose names I can't remember did well to get out, but unless they're getting good money for it, this public posturing will do more harm than good: no forms of government are anything but shit, and this one seems to be about the best there is.

    This was three years ago and Janet Street Porter, who is a lefty by the way, certainly marked Markle's card!!

    You know, Primavera. This doesn't surprise me that you sit around the house all day watching some woman's program called 'Loose Women'.

    Some guy named 'Nigel' has his panties in a wad over Meghan & Harry. I'm guessing he's some British faggot. (maybe Primavera can tell me who 'Nigel Farrah' is?)

    I used to love his movies. Then he turned out to be a sleaze. When's the last time he made a movie?

    Don't know. Others have expressed identical sentiments.

    Don't watch it. It's just about the fucking Brits and their shitty little island. Americans taught them to not fuck with us over back in the 1770s and they are still pissed about it. The Limeys are racist assholes too.

    It really would have been nice to have a free and fair social media so that I would know what people really think about what these two did last night, but Harry and Meghan are not to be criticized for their resentment and attempt to hurt the Crown in retaliation for being told "no"..

    But the Tech Overlords are certainly molding our perceptions by silencing the contrary opinions, the WOKE must rule, and they do love their victims so...
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.
