Nope, no time spent worrying. I find the vociferous defense fascinating in light of the numerous times that H&M have been caught making statements that contradict earlier statements. Was hoping that a defender would taking the time to reflect and explain their support. |
It can be both you know. It’s not an either or situation. Harry suing is the kicker - definitely a conflict of interest going on and Covid makes an excellent excuse. |
Do the Sussexes do anything other than file lawsuits? 😄 |
How long did it take you to come up with that rote "absense of evidence" rebuttal? It doesn't even hold water in this case since there is actual evidence: FACT: First Department of Defense Warrior Game was held in 2010. https://www.dodwarriorgames.com/ FACT: Harry visited in 2014 "Prince Harry joked Thursday that a Paralympic-style sporting championship for injured servicemen and women known as the Warrior Games was "such a good idea by the Americans that it had to be stolen." (Newsweek) FACT: The DoD Warrior Games is scheduled in 2021 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World Resort which DONATED their facility. This shows the importance of these games for the WOUNDED doesn't depend on fundraisers because they are sponsored by US government and supported by corporations, in accordance with U.S. government ethics laws. FACT: When Harry couldn't do a fundraiser (money going to HIS charity) then he threatens with a lawsuit. (Newsweek 9/20) FACT: In a March 2019 survey, a 72% majority of U.S. adults (and identical 72% shares of Republicans and Democrats) said that if they were making the federal budget, they would increase spending for veterans’ benefits and services FACT: Because of these statistics, it has been proven that exploitation will occur and has been occurring, as was discussed in 2007 in Congress: https://www.charitywatch.org/charity-donating-articles/our-veterans-deserve-better-congressional-testimony FACT: The definition of exploitation: use or utilization, especially for profit selfish utilization: the combined, often varied, use of public-relations and advertising techniques to promote a person, movie, product, etc. Anyone who defends Harry and his shady Invictus Games, including corporations, should be roundly criticized and boycotted. |
Ugh who cares. This thread is a dumpster fire that should be locked. It’s gone from pleasant chatter to ugly attacks. And to be clear, I think Meghan and Harry are immature whiners who have somehow fooled people into buying into their perpetual victimhood. Meghan is a classic narcissist - she’s the victim and anyone who doesn’t agree with her is “toxic.” Her family is toxic, her husbands family is toxic, the press is toxic. It’s clear as daylight she’s the problem, not everyone else.
But that said, come on people, it’s not that big of a deal. Stop calling each other names and acting like little kids. |
+1 yeah, this is the "entertainment" forum and this thread no longer entertains me. |
Who cares? About wounded veterans being exploited by a rich foreign prince? Why, no one on DCUM it's obvious. |
This makes sense. Harry has a history of using his military affiliation for self-promotion. Remember when he hired a photographer to take pictures of him laying a wreath at an LA veteran’s cemetery? You could laugh, cringe, or roll your eyes, but if that was my loved one’s grave being used that way, I would be downright angry. |
-1 Then read another thread or contribute something meaningful other than I am bored and you guys aren't entertaining me. |
I think she's going for the Prince Edwards/Wallis Simpson "we are scandalous" thing - no one has forgotten about them yet. |
I don’t think this is the right take. You remember the subversive figures like, say, Anne Boleyn, not necessarily the hundreds of queen consorts of England. |
True but no one thinks highly of them either. Sad sorry lot those 2. |
I actually think a slim majority thinks highly of Meghan and Harry, or at least respect the decisions they made to protects themselves and their small family. Many young people in particular, I've found, find their actions to be quite brave. |
Them, brave? What a joke. Not many young veterans would agree with you on that one nor your idea of what "brave" is. |

So noble and brave to profit from other's stories because of shady terms and conditions on your foundation website. https://www.private-eye.co.uk/issue-1549/news https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/hidden-message-prince-harry-meghan-24493053 Just despicable. |
