All the usual suspects forming a lynch mob.

Sorry JBar, youâre in the minority on this one. It appears that most people have formed a negative opinion on Meghan and Harry lately. Theyâve lost a lot of support in recent weeks, even from people whoâve been in their corner throughout all their drama.

I wouldnât describe the debate on here as a lynch mob- yes, people here (myself included) are critical of how Harry has handled things recently but itâs been pretty respectful (certainly by the standards of decorum on the internet these days). If you want to see examples of a lynch mob just go on Twitter for 5 minutes and look at any hashtag remotely related to Australian politics.

Saying âpeople like youâ and âusual suspectsâ is very condescending and quite offensive. Just in case youâre not aware. And the term âlynch mobâ is triggering to some. If youâre going to be woke you should live by the principles yourself.

When anyone disagrees with you, you have to brand them as âwokeâ. Itâs getting tiring. I think people need to stop being the footsoldiers for Newscorp and start thinking for themselves.

Why do you keep twisting this back to NewsCorp?
Itâs got nothing to do with them. Harry has said this all. On camera. In interviews. In a book he wrote.
I have no idea why youâre on about NewsCorp. Very odd.
People are thinking for themselves. Theyâre listening to the words coming out of Harryâs own mouth and forming an opinion based on those words.

Iâm afraid youâve fallen into the same trap yourself by labelling anyone who disagrees with you as a âfootsoldier of Newscorpâ who canât think for themselves.
Itâs this 2 dimensional mindset (anyone who disagrees with me is woke/racist/sexist/fascist etc) that is causing so much of the political polarisation we have these days- and both sides of politics are guilty of cultivating this environment. The reality is that people are a lot more nuanced and can be âconservativeâ on some issues while being âleft-wingâ on others, or fall somewhere in the middle.

i agree with everything @JBar says.
I for one disagree with everyone on harry. I have stated my opinion on harry b4, but Iâm going to say it again. i like harry and Megan. always have. i think heâs very brave for coming out against the royal family. i have always found them very snobbish and very up them selfs. but then thereâs harry 
I donât particularly like the royals either for many reasons. But I donât think Harryâs helping his cause here either with his endless claptrap about âpoor meâ. He really should be above the gossip gurus and the royal family who heâs purporting to be terrible.

Snobbish? 
Their whole working lives are literally based on serving the people and spending days in and amongst them.I canât see how theyâre snobs?
I agree. If they had decided to fade into the background post their departure as âworking royalsâ, and mainly focused on their charitable projects, they would be probably be in a position today where they are respected and admired almost universally.
Unfortunately, they have made some very poor choices since then, first with the Oprah interview, and now with this book and the ITV interview. Throwing cheap shots of racism and sexism towards the royal family might go down extremely well with some segments of the community, but it has alienated a large part of the community as well.

What is actually tiring (apart from being condescending) is your incorrect assumptions. I canât stand Newscorp and am a left leaning voter. This discussion has nothing to do with either.

I have been listening to the spare audiobook.
I have been keeping in mind that i have only one side of any story but he comes across as a scared boy (even now) who is making his way into the world where he is constantly watched and critisied.
Iâm far from the biggest royalist in the world - it was pure coincide i was in london when QEII passed away (i swear i had nothing to do with it) but i do feel some sympathy with him.
â
he was the âspareâ - Charles litterally said after his birth to Diana that âyouâve given me the Heir and now youâve given me the spareâ
He was shunned by his brother at school (if the stories are correct) and the death of his mother took a massive toll on him.
we will see if my opinon changes as the book goes on however (iâm only 2.5 hours in of the 14 hour book)

Iâm so tired of the heir and the spare thing. Iâm a second son myself and the saying is a joke that is often used in many families (including mine) where there are 2 sons! Harry has either blown it out of all proportion or doesnât get that itâs a common saying. Maybe he is deliberately using it to boost his platform.
Itâs also VERY common for older siblings and cousins to ignore the younger kids at school! Just wondering, do you have older siblings?

Itâs a bit rich to complain about being constantly watched and criticised when HE is the one releasing scandalous memoirs and doing constant media interviewsâŚ
