This. If I disliked someone and heard they had a bad show I sure as shit wouldn’t watch the show lmfao. It’s like these people seek Meghan out solely to complain. |
The Economist refers to Marie Antoinette- ultimate gracious hostess and girl boss.
https://www.economist.com/culture/2025/03/04/meghan-markles-new-netflix-show-is-out-of-touch-with-the-times This is why people like me watched some (and I don’t live in the Baltics) and won’t stop discussing. This show is like a satire to me, she’s obviously a con, and I’m fascinated with who does and who doesn’t see it. |
You won’t stop discussing the show ever??? Lol |
I just want to note the White Lotus thread is half the length of this one. So yes, the intensity in this thread is much higher. It's easier for me to understand why people are mad at Hilaria. She literally lies about her ethnicity and pretends she doesn't know common English words even though she grew up in Boston. She did something concrete and weird. She also had a million kids with a man who pretty openly appears not to have wanted them. Their family is overtly weird. It's very provocative. With Meghan it's like "she seems whiny and she's never done anything very impressive." It's just nowhere near the level of Hilaria Baldwin. |
I’m not going to let your being an ass dictate anything to me, or to be guilted. Did you pull this with Hilaria? |
Of course plenty of people see Markle in the same way. Hilaria could’ve faked her accent for forever, but she wanted to be a star in the mommy pregnancy recovery space and have endorsements. She was a yogi or something before marriage. It’s the same thing with Markle- had a public profile before, nothing like what marriage brought her, people saw her fakeness over time. |
No I wasn’t trying to dictate anything. I was sort of laughing but also genuinely asking. You say you won’t stop discussing. For how long? Genuinely curious. Will you still be discussing it a year from now? |
See you then! I love the schoolmarming. |
DP. It seems pretty obvious her primary goal is to be admired or envied. There is no other explanation for her actions. |
What's odd is that you think this somehow sets her apart, when it's actually the thing she has in common with everyone else on tv, and a good number of people not on tv. What some of us are noting is that the intensity of feeling around Meghan doesn't seem to match her actual behavior. She's annoying, yeah, but in such a benign, mild way that it seems odd to feel invested. I watched there show and I wasn't like "this is amazing, I must have more." Some of her interactions are a little cringey but that actually gave it some interest (oh let's see how awkward Meghan will be with this famous chef now). There are so many much more cringey people out there, many of whom have done actually immoral or horrible things. Like it's weird to me to invest a lot of energy in hating Meghan when Karoline Leavitt is on TV every day, lying about stuff the president does and doing it in such a petulant, annoying way. Why isn't there a 100+ page thread on Leavitt? People are really out here saying "omg Meghan almost picked up the crostini made by Mindy Kaling but then instead picked up one of the one's she made!!!" and meanwhile actual villains are shredding democracy but whatever. |
Nah- I have no problem with being angry. Letting out anger in ways that don’t hurt anyone (like posting about a celebrity online) is much healthier than keeping it in and attacking people. Do you not like to see other women angry? Does it make you uncomfortable? I would say attacking other women online saying they are “weird’ and “insane” for expressing dislike and exploring those feelings in a fairly innocuous way (posting online on a forum she will never read) means you are a little defensive about this topic. I am cool with disliking Megan Markle. I don’t watch her show, but I didn’t watch the Oprah interview and she rings disingenuous. She has alarms all over the place. She is living as an image, not living as a person. I don’t respect it and am free to write about it. |
Because she is doing all of it to make money, not for any belief she has. I believe Karoline Leavitt is one of those slightly brainwashed religious girls who at least believes in her lies and wants to live in a Christian way. However misguided I think her to be, Karoline believes the lies. Megan just wants power and is more like a JD Vance. She will say anything to get ahead and preach about being open minded at the same time. |
Did the discussion regarding Hilaria Baldwin similar invoke the response that people just weren’t paying enough attention to Sarah Huckabee Sanders’s lies? Just curious. |
Saw MM is guest in one of episodes of the John Mulaney new NETFLIX show. Agents and Netflix working hard for cross-pollination. |
I don’t even know who or what that is. |
