But that doesn’t make it a fact. It’s just talk.
Moderate English folks just assumed she was going to try to change their style because she’s an American feminist. While the rest just hated her for her skin color.
But as far as facts go, she didn’t do anything out of place.. Yet she was vilified for simply existing.

Just like a feminist on NL can tell folks to respect their parents and for some reason people will take offense grin

Once they have decided to hate you, do or don’t: it won’t matter. It’s your fault. grin

Reference:
Ah Coco, that has been the talk around her marriage to Harry by those who saw it as a good thing in parts of the media. But one can understand that those parts are a bit in a flux since the attachments to the BRF have been torpedoed.

Just like when Diana was rumoured to be pregnant for Dodi and then met her untimely there were sections who insinuated that she was assasinated to prevent a muslim born heir.

Look society views these things very diametrically. Some will want to preserve these great institutions, some others will want them ended or want them recreated in their own image. That is essentially the battle in the minds of onlookers.

It’s stupendously dumbfounding
pocohantas:
It is just a way of covering up their emptiness. They do it on every topic to be fair on them. Rather than sit it out and allow people in the know comment- so that others can read and learn. They will occupy the whole thread with retarted comments.

How does someone with a functional brain enter a thread like this and type "fear women".

You’re letting your assumptions get in the way of facts
Agboriotejoye:
Taah!! Charap!. What do you think a divorce American actress who is a feminist will think of the royals and their way of life? Of course she'll think they're dummies and will fancy herself way smarter. Now they've been stripped of the royal titles she so coveted. Let's see how this goes.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 10:13am On Jan 19, 2020
But who said she was trying to modernize the royal family?

Reference:
I wanted to read all posts before replying but I want to call you out Coco on this:

You must admit that the black man has problems building institutions, obeying rules and following leadership. We have very weak impulses to collectively establishing societies. There is barely any collection of black people you can point to as being sustainably successful and world beating. Individually, yes some successes but collectively the annals of history are clear.

Not criticising that woman, afterall the human soul basically yearns for liberty but in order to project ideals sacrifices have to be made to coalesce power, something the black man simply cannot do. If she was going to 'modernise' the royal family and if she was going to battle out the racism, how on earth is this action going to achieve that.

And I say this with all sense of critical thinking looking even at our little country Nigeria. Why can't the black man be cerebral in his actions. Why can't he apply soft power, why can't he be diplomatic in his ways, why can't he negotiate to gain ground, stoop to conquer. Why is the black man always confrontational, rash, always acting before thinking, and his ways always set in a zero sum game. Meaning it is always 'my way or the highway'.

Just look at Nigeria, the largest collection of black people in the world within one fence... a mini disaster. I am black. I have nothing against blacks.... but unfortunately I have a lot of issues against blacks.

Ladycewhy:
actually the sadness you choose to bear for the life of another is really touching,keep that sadness for more people in need ,oppressed or on their death bed,this empathy of yours is misplaced.


Now to address the bolded,what makes you think she is not supporting her husband's decision?Harry has always been a rebel ,has a temper and was very rebellious but your self hate for black women has blinded you to that aspect . Anyway,you and anyone else can't stop them ,even the queen could not.
It be ya own people. Only God knows why black men exhibit such dislike towards their own women.
Many of them won’t be up in arms like this if Meghan was white
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f):
So then, a none self-respecting white man did it. Do your research

Dont lie to yourself. NO SELF RESPECTING white man would call a black person chimp in 2020. I swear.. At least not in UK.

He married someone he loves that is not white.

I guess that makes it okay then for all the vile racist shit being thrown at his family .
Got it
peacettw:
Really.... As if he wasn't expecting that having married Meghan? If he didn't want an attack, then he should have married someone from his village.

We see something similar playing out here even in Nigeria all the time. If you marry someone from another tribe and an unpopular one at that, then you should expect your family to be up in arms with intense scrutiny. I am just so mad at the wasted opportunity.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 8:48am On Jan 19, 2020
And what’s her drama exactly?

Strict protocol that includes calling their grandchildren chimps? Keep trying to convince yourself
badman007:
Who is Peirs Morgan to bully anyone let alone bully a dutchess.

She brought the press upon herself with all her drama. What was she expecting?

You think she wasnt warned about the strick protocol in the palace before she went ahead with state marriage?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 8:46am On Jan 19, 2020
Attack in his family is an attack on him
peacettw:
Harry was never attacked. Someone posted a pic of him butt naked years back and yet he was never attacked. Williams is a known man LovePeddler with a girlfriend he still visits occasionally and yet he was never attacked. Let us not forget about Prince Andrew, can it get any worse than that pedophile? These people are untouchables but sadly their spouses are not. That is the cross they must bear.

If Harry hadn't married meghan, if Prince Edwards hadn't insisted on marrying that American divorcee, both will still be part of the family.

As for Obama, save for personal interests, I will like to think he stuck through it all because he knew that that position was much bigger than him. Now, a little black boy or girl can dream of being a president some day.
Meghan should have stuck through all the bullshit. She was older, had been throghh a bad divorce with terrible relatives and should have known that no matter what you do in this world, you will still get shit being thrown at you.

i bet you have a career, with colar job, with good per hour rates and proper documents, your spouse must also earn well ..
that’s correct
I am telling him the reality masked from some ignorant people who think US is giving out free money, his chances of saving $3000 is quite slim i can assure you that
Now this part is what varies. The only reason why I mentioned you was the phrase about it not being possible to earn that amount per month as an immigrant. Nigerians are some of the most hardworking immigrants in the USA. (Yes a lot of us do shady stuff that’s right). But a lot of us also make way more than that in legitimate income .

I used to live in a predominantly white state up until last year then I moved. There are way more Nigerians over here where I live now and I’m always pleasantly surprised to meet Nigerian doctors, nurses and nurse practitioners, health care professionals etc.

A doctor where I work makes no less than $250,000-300,000 per year. That’s more than $20k per month (I don’t know what other healthcare facilities pay). And boy there are many Nigerian doctors here. Let’s not even talk about what the surgeons earn. I’ve met quite some naija surgeons here as well. (But I am not among these people mentioned above FYI grin)

The person in the OP we don’t know his story or what’s his deal is. But I guess my point is that it’s not uncommon like you imagine.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 8:31am On Jan 19, 2020
For Obama, there was an end in sight. And it was a position he chose.

For Harry, there was no end in sight and he was being attacked for a position he didn’t ask for.
peacettw:
Which is even worse if you think about it.
Why would he 'elect' to go back for a second term when the first term was filled with 4 years of intense hate and vitriol from the white supremacists?

Now compare this to Harry. He was born into royalty. Why didn't he leave before now? Why wait till he got married and with a son to make such a decision and only after 2 years?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 8:28am On Jan 19, 2020
What’s entitled about expecting to be treated like a human being?
And not have your child called racist names?

Because we suffer in Africa from bad leadership, we should be okay with being treated as sub human?also

why are you so angry?

dude cant you read and comprehend? the Article said he came back from a long prison term and according to most top country law you get long sentence for crimes and get deported afterwards

simple sense

and only a dumbo thinks he can make 1M in a month and not pay tax, pay morgage or rent, car loan , car insurance , healt insurance, utility bills and end up with the same $3000 in a month.. even fools know very that isn't possible in the US, besides who the fvck are you to earn $3000 in US as an immigrant
Lol. I earn a lot lot more than $3,000/month. I’m an immigrant. Speak for yourself.

P.S it’s also possible to end up with more than that amount in savings per month if you have a spouse or partner and you both make similar amount and live on one person’s pay check while saving the other paycheck.

Wow. So he’s been most likely deported and now he has nothing. No house no cars etc. smh

undecided

Look at your comparison. Obama’s was an elected position.
peacettw:
The American press was more evil to Obama and his family but he went for a second term. He didn't resign and secede as an American.

No amount of reason will ever make this right.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by cococandy(f): 7:22am On Jan 19, 2020
The average Nigerian is such a disgusting misogynistic dimwit that’s its impossible to get them to apply reasoning once a subject of wife and husband matter arises. Just reading the uninformed and hateful comments splashed all over the thread by BLACK PEOPLE nonetheless and smh.

Somehow related to this topic but not entirely....

For those who have nasty things to say about drug addicts, please don’t.
Yes it’s unpleasant and painful especially to their family members. But being a drug addict is more than just a habit. It’s like someone else moved into your brain and took over the controls. It’s a mental illness that requires medical management like all other mental illnesses.

They do not have a choice (except at the beginning before they started doing the drugs) but when they are hooked on it, they have no control anymore. It’s something that stays managed (like HIV) but can’t be cured (as of yet). Maybe with progress in medicine the future might be different. But for now, reserve your judgment please and show compassion.

OP as for your dad, his heart might be in right place but you’re right: his timing and delivery needs work. What’s the point of saying the proper thing if it has no effect based on how you say it and when you choose to say it?

But sadly he’s not here to read any comment that might have advice for him . So I don’t see how this thread can solve your problem.

I swear this is the problem with black women. When you give them an inch, they take a mile.
What was she thinking before she married this poor boy?

Her sister and father were right. She is always seeking attention. The role of the wife is to support the husband, not make it about herself. I mean how dare she take away the boys birthright?
Black people and self hate.

Am saying the same thing to people saying they should leave her to live any life she wants

Was she blind when she decided to marry a royal or was she expecting the royal house to make things go her way because she is Meghan? grin
Or maybe she was expecting not to be treated like an animal?
Does being married to a royal mean accepting racism?

Wish your baby quick recovery.

Basically what she has is pneumonia caused by inhaling amniotic fluid and that first stool babies usually have in their first few days of life.

It is serious but not often fatal.
Fingers crossed that she gets better very very soon.
