I'm not particularly invested in #HarryandMegan but I find myself defending them often because of the other topics raised by people's responses to their story in which I am invested, such as misogyny, patriarchy, racism, classism & bullying. I shall thread at my leisure... 1/?
Disclaimer: When I say bullying, I don't mean "fun shade" like reading the Real Housewives', reacting to the big game, or silly gossip about pop culture. Celebs kind of sign up for that. I mean accounts that exist solely to rage Tweet over #MeganMarkle's every move. 2/?
I'm not part of #SussexSquad, haven't read Omid Scobie's book, listened to Archetypes, or watched all of #HarryandMeghanNetflix. I will, however, read Harry's book because I like memoirs & autobiographies. (I'm currently reading Bono's 'Surrender'. Highly recommended!) 3/? 
I am not going to link any of the hate accounts here because I've already given them too much of the attention they are seeking. However, if you follow the trending hashtags or check my Tweets/Replies you will find them. They are deeply disturbing, hateful & totally unhinged. 4/?
"They shouldn't speak publicly about the royals. The royals don't talk about them." Um, every negative story in the tabs either comes straight from palace sources or from royal minions. Camilla invited some of the worst offenders to her Christmas lunch. 5/?news.yahoo.com/anger-mounts-o…
(I have never threaded before, so I have no idea if I'm doing it right or if they are showing up in order. Pointers will be accepted, criticism ignored... 🤣🤣🤣) 6/?
If the #KingCharles & Camilla cared at all about Harry and Megan, they would have invited @alexberesfordTV to that Christmas lunch instead of Piers Morgan. 7/?

It is worth noting that before Piers Morgan was denied an invite to Harry & Meghan's wedding, he was her biggest fan. Since then, he's behaved like a deranged stalker. Hell hath no fury like Piers scorned. 8/?

I just realized I've been spelling Meghan's name wrong this whole time. FML... 9/?
"Megan was plotting to marry a prince because she pretended to be a princess at a party in 1990." First of all, why are you talking badly about a child? Weirdo. Second, I bet y'all played princess as a child too. She got to be one, however briefly. You didn't. #Jealousy 10/?
"Harry is being controlled & manipulated." Harry is a fully-grown, well-educated man approaching middle age. He can CHOOSE to do whatever he wants. And if what he chooses is whatever it takes to keep his wife safe & make her happy, he's a better man than many. #MoreJealousy 11/?
"Meghan has ties to Epstein. She was once photographed with a girl who vaguely resembles a girl who was once photographed with Epstein." Meanwhile- 12/?
"Meghan is a gold digger." You're definitely sexist & probably racist. Meghan went to private schools, private university, was successful in her career--booked & busy for 15+ years--& reportedly was worth @ $5 million before she met Harry. 13/?
"Meghan faked her pregnancies & used a surrogate." If you're speculating about and/or shaming anyone's path to parenthood, you are a horrible person & a waste of working organs. I hope YOU never reproduce. Seriously. Do the world a service & get sterilized.

"The UK hates them. Harry and Meghan and their children should be stripped of all titles, etc..."
