No worse than the rest, they should all be consigned to history in terms of celebrity, titles and living off the state

It's Gingers fault !

I doubt everyone who hates her is a racist but it would be naive to not think that her race plays a part with certain groups.

We're all hypocrites when it comes to the environment. Every single one of us.

Other than that issue, i couldn't care less about any celeb other than how hot they are... She's quite fit, but too girl next door for me.

There's still an element of subconscious bias based on racism and I've no doubt this plays some part here.

To answer this question, though:

"Do people who criticise her deserve to be called racist?"

No - absolutely not.

Well, yes, but this absurd idea that you can't care or try to affect change if you get on a flight is the argument of a moron imo.

It's like the people who say 'well have one in your home then' if you support the idea of being charitable to refugees.

Absolutely, for instance... I imagine the overall carbon footprint of producing a film like "An Inconvenient Truth" was high, but the impact to the overall carbon footprint would negate it.

Short term pain for long term gain. (Though that Norwegian girl is setting a new starting boshing about the planet on her solar powered boat).

In the same way that some people think if you voted Brexit you are a far right fascist there are those who think you can't criticise Markle without being a racist.

Its the way society has gone and social media being out of control doesn't help.

WTF is this? honestly, what the actual feck is this meant to mean?

Is this meant to be a 'know your place' comment? Are people not allowed to improve their lot? Are people meant to stay in their own social classes?

I'll let you choose what you are:

Racist
Sexist
Misogynist
Classist

Take your time and give it some consideration.

And with that Ivan’s comment, that’s precisely what I’m talking about. You can’t criticise someone without them using the race card. It’s actually hurting the fight against racism by using that card so much. Wonder if he understands ...

I'd say classist with at least a degree of unconscious bias. As a minimum.

Or it could just be that you’re looking far too deeply into this. It is possible to consciously dislike someone without it having the attached negative aspects that you want to label someone with

I took at that he was implying she’s a gold digger. When I look at her then look at Harry I’m inclined to agree.

Sexy caramel marrying soulless ginger.

Robb is the type of person that says “I’m not racist, I have black friends”

Furthermore why feck would I want the royals on a commercial jet? If they’re targeted, we’re all going down with them. If people are worried about their carbon foot print, well abolish the Monarchy.

Why would you go out of the way to criticise her though? Jet plane aside, what even warrants an opinion? Do you have the same strong opinions about Kate?

Got absolutely no issue with Megan, other than she’s yet another parasitic royal. But fair play to her, if that’s what she wants then all credit for getting it.

posted on 22/8/19

Only issue I have with Meghan is that her tots are too small for her hips. Makes her look like a duck.

Get under the knife m’lady.

Plenty of reasons why I have issues with Meghan. The way she’s treated her family. The reported ways she is with people who work for her. The call for privacy while doing everything she can to maintain a public image. Many more.

I don’t ‘hate’ the woman. Why would I? I just think that people who criticise her being called racist is ridiculous and a sign of the times

I didn't even know people criticised her?
Didn't know people were fussed about the royals in general.

That's not fair.

He has raised a valid question about something you said.
