Prince Harry’s newly released tell-all memoir is sending shockwaves through the Royal Family, painting a picture of a Family at odds with both Himself and Meghan. Here are some of the more bizarre claims made in the new book 🧵
HARRY: CHARLES HAD HABIT OF “ACTING LIKE ROYALTY” - WHICH MADE CONNECTING WITH “DAD” EMOTIONALLY DIFFICULT
Harry had trouble connecting with his father. Often, at events or parades, he would approach the now King to discuss Diana, to be met with orders to “be quiet” or “shut up”
“TOXIC CULTURE OF PRIVILEGE” AT PALACE - LATE QUEEN SNIFFED MEGHAN “UP AND DOWN LIKE A DOG” ON FIRST MEETING HER
Harry calls out Royal “sense of entitlement”. In one bizarre incident on first meeting Meghan, the Late Queen sniffed her “at the neck”. “Nobody around said anything”
WILLIAM AND KATE “TRICKED” HARRY INTO WEARING NAZI UNIFORM “NO LESS THAN 7 TIMES”
William and Kate allegedly encouraged Harry to wear a Nazi uniform on no less than 7 occasions, telling him it would be “massively funny,” and to “get really into it,” which he duly did “to fit in”
HARRY IN BIZARRE CLAIM DIANA BOUGHT HARRY NINTENDO WII, NETFLIX SUBSCRIPTION
In the Book, Harry speaks fondly of his mother, the Late Princess of Wales. He claims, bizarrely, she bought him a Wii and Netflix, which is impossible as they both released a decade after her death
LATE DUKE OF EDINBURGH MADE RACIST COMMENTS ABOUT MEGHAN, TEASED HARRY ABOUT ‘JUNGLE FEVER’
Allegedly, Prince Philip would forget Meghan’s name and call her the ‘Bingbong Girl’. In private he teased Harry and told him he “fumbled around with a few Spear Chuckers in his time too”
HARRY AGREED TO DATE WITH MEGHAN BECAUSE HE THOUGHT SHE WAS SAME PERSON AS AVATAR ACTRESS ZOE SALDANA
Harry began dating Meghan because he thought she was Zoe Saldana, who starred as ‘Neytiri’ in James Cameron’s Hit Movie ‘Avatar’, who Harry describes watching as “really erotic”
HARRY: “NO PATH TO PEACE IN SYRIA WHILE ASSAD STILL LEADS”
In a bizarre digression, Harry devotes some 15 pages of the new book to his thoughts on the Syrian Conflict, concluding “Assad is a butcher” who “simply has to go. There can’t be a lasting peace with him still in charge”
“OUT-OF-TOUCH” CAMILLA, AND TWO OTHER SENIOR ROYALS, SENT ARCHIE ‘GOLLIWOG’ TOYS
In an attempt to broker peace after Harry’s estrangement from the Royals on the birth of his son, Camilla, and two other nameless “Senior Royals”, sent him a hamper of presents - including Golliwogs
CAMILLA WOULD HISS UNCONTROLLABLY AT MENTION OF DIANA, GOAD HARRY WITH TUNNEL-THEMED PUNS
Harry claims the now Queen Consort has an uncontrollable tic where she hisses at the mention of Diana. She often made jokes to Harry about ‘tunnelvision’ or ‘light at the end of the tunnel’
PRINCE HARRY WOULD HAVE “VIGOROUS WANK” WHENEVER HE KILLED SOMEONE - BUT MEGHAN SHOWED HIM “ERROR OF HIS WAYS”
To relieve tension everytime he killed a man in the army, Harry would escape to a toilet to “masturbate”. He had no idea this was problematic until “Meghan taught him”
2024 was a big year in film. Sequels dominated but a new cultural turn explored reactionary themes. Here are The New York Times’ Best Movies of 2024: Movies that entertained and awed, but that also pushed boundaries and championed social justice causes 🧵
DIDN’T IRELAND USE TO BE A SHITHOLE?
Moving and thought provoking award-winning drama set in Old Ireland (1980’s). Cillian Murphy stars as an Irishman who must navigate the relentless awfulness that was Ireland - paedophile priests and no migrants. We learn how shit Ireland was
Robert Egger’s THE WHITEMAN
“A bloody revenge epic and a breathtaking visual marvel” - reactionary filmmaker Robert Egger returns with his most reactionary film yet. When an enigmatic figure known as ‘The Whiteman’ is wronged for being white he whiteishly sets out for vengeance
Tomb of Saladin in Damascus Syria. Often difficult to know what to do with yourself when you visit the tomb of genuine world historical figures, you feel you need to show reverence - I walked around it a few times. You can see in the corner the janitor dumped a vacuum cleaner box
Saladin’s tomb is in a small mausoleum at the back of Damascus’ famous Umayyad Mosque, not really advertised. You wouldn’t know it was there unless you read about it beforehand. Mentioned to me casually, “oh yeah we’ve got Saladin out in the back if you want to go have a look”
Richard the Lionheart on the Third Crusade fighting his great frenemy the noble Saladin, so noble that even Christendom could not help but admire him for his virtue… a story about as ‘legendary’ as it gets. Maybe I was expecting the mausoleum to be more appropriately ‘hallowed’ but I did enjoy the more homely, casual ‘approach’. Tatty and ragged but warm carpets, the tomb itself for all intents and purposes covered in what was a glorified tablecloth. I can’t say whether it had that ‘approach’ by design, whether it was because of indifference or whether it was supposed to be ‘modest’. It did in this way though feel like there was a genuine ‘authenticity’ to the space, it was the opposite of impersonal. You could go and touch the tomb, run your hands over it - the few people who were hanging around outside all seemed fairly indifferent about it all. Nice to visit
NIGERIANS REACT to British Conservative Party Leader Kemi Badenoch saying that she identifies as a Yoruba not a Nigerian and using the phrase “our ethnic enemies”
Actually Competent Politics - don’t see that often anymore
Basically Fineism with Majority Southern European Immigrant Stock and a little Germanic and Celtic and Mapuche Stock Characteristics (Deport the Bolivians before it’s too late)
“We will reform the Institutions with our own Syrian DOGE”
“Sure sure sure. Umm, sure… but so, like, okay, you know, so, like, sorry if you’re just hearing this for the first time but if what you’ve got is, what you’ve got is a political ecosystem with all these entrenched interests like all these um competing interests sorry to blackpill I think of it more as a clearpill but you’re not going to get very far without like, basically a Monarch. Or not even a Monarch, you know, like a CEO, think like FDR’s Presidency the kinds of absolute powers he had then. And so- you know, what you need is you need this kind of absolute power. You know if you only have that symbolic institutional power umm, through these ‘Institutions’ I mean come on that’s not how power works you know like the system is going to eat you up and like chew you up and, um, spit you out. Like you’re fucked basically. Again, sorry if you’re just hearing this for the first time-”
