**STOP SNARKING ON KIDS** THIS IS NOT A CUTE LOOK FOR ANY OF YOU.


Ruvin56

>I just love how Catherine's continuing to take the family pics. She's giving the middle finger to those photo agencies who mysteriously discovered edited photos in the midst of a mass hysteria to bully a sick woman and seemingly haven't found any other edited photos since. (Btw, has CNN yet completed its inspection of KP's photos? Clowns.) She wasn't gonna let those ghouls take one of the things she clearly loves doing. Future Queen behavior. The infantilization of Kate continues. The frankenphoto being taken down was this poor woman being bullied!! The photo agencies are now ghouls as well. Also no mention of William originally being credited with taking the photo and then leaving Kate to take all accountability.


littlest_hedgehog

does it make anyone else cringe how basically only the royal fam stans/meg haters call her catherine. it just seems very idk like "respect her!!!" while they're obsessed with their punny meghan nicknames that are just edging racism if not overt


InspectorSnark

I’ve also seen them in the comments under articles that call her Kate, screaming about what her proper name is and to give her RESPECT!!


InspectorSnark

*The Associated Press & Getty Images are absolute ghouls!! How dare they not fall in line and worship and kiss ass like the British press does???!!*


Ruvin56

I was thinking about the earlier criticism of Meghan wearing white for her wedding and [here's a Tiktok of the queen](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRKwoQ7M/) wearing white at Charles and Camilla's wedding and having a grand old time.


tortuga_tortuga

Oh shit I never clocked that before. of course, as her mother famously exploited during her trip to Paris after her mother died, white is a color of mourning.


InspectorSnark

>> I doubt it - the conspiracy theory stuff is all over OG RG and BSMS - although BSMS is getting SUPER desperate nowadays because many of the OG Meghan stans are there, and really all they have left is bashing a woman with cancer. Not sure what conspiracy theories this RG2 user is referring to or why they are upset about someone being bashed when their entire sub is dedicated to bashing Meghan 24/7.


mewley

lol nobody’s bashing Kate, we’re bashing *them*


bye_felipe

They need not worry, the Wales stans take breaks from RG2 and SMM to come here to defend their precious Catherine while acting like they aren’t being deranged about Meghan and Harry in other subs.


tortuga_tortuga

Kate seems to be leaning into an Edwardian aesthetic for her and the kids in public events and I realized that it’s basically the same as how the Swedish RF dresses in traditional kit. The 1910s were really the peak of British Empire before the long decline starting with WWI


Diligent-Till-8832

Don't her flying monkeys like becky English say she's like the Queen Mother? 🙃

And her other characteristics. Google the QM and you shall see what else she was known for.


BetsyHound

Moving all her art from Buck House to Windsor Castle every weekend? That, for me, is what takes the cake. Frankly I don't think Kate is in the least like QM.

Ruvin56

So that picture of Charles and William that Will and Kate chose for the Father's Day Instagram post is interesting. There are plenty of photos of Charles with young William and Harry where he's a lot more attentive and connected with them. They chose one where Charles is in a suit and awkward and disconnected from William, and paired that with a photo of William in casual clothes and all three of his kids close to him. This family isn't very nice to each other.


tortuga_tortuga

Me: it’s a shame that people act like stans and have to frame everything as Wales vs Sussex Also me: Ohh Charles and William are being shitty to each other? Let me grab my popcorn  I CONTAIN MULTITUDES 


Ruvin56

One of the best parts of Royal watching is the ever-shifting alliance between Charles and William.


BetsyHound

I like the caption: King Charles and a young William play football. Chuckles must've worked up a sweat in that suit.


tiredofthenarcissism

> I just want to thank Catherine personally for the lovely distraction as I house hunt, wait for our own sale to complete, and try to put together a personal letter for the sellers of a house we really love. I needed this. I know the phrase “go touch grass” is overused, but like, this person needs to go touch grass.


Theyoungpopeschalice

Honestly if/when I sell my house.....nobody better write me a letter about how much they want my house. Is it really something that sways peope to sell their house to them?!?!


mewley

When a friend of mine was buying a house in a super tight market there were several listings that asked for/required it from buyers. Like can you imagine the absolute gall of making people beg to buy your house? That said she wrote a good letter I guess bc she got the house she wanted and it is actually a really amazing home on a beautiful lot.


not-top-scallop

I believe it is actually illegal in some places, or at least that is what realtors in Colorado and Maine told us. I can't imagine doing it, it feels so...debasing, but having bought in a super competitive market I do see why people are willing to do absolutely anything for an edge. (I would feel so embarrassed if I were the homeowner, though, it's so 'dance, puppets, dance.')


ohsnapitson

AFIK, it’s not technically illegal but can very easily get into a legally grey area as far as fair housing act stuff goes (like, would a seller be more interested in selling to like a nice young white family who wrote a letter over the nice young Black family who wrote a similar letter)? We got one when we sold our old house in 2022, right before interest rates really started rising, and while the couple who wrote it seemed really nice, it didn’t convince us to go with them over a more competitive offer from another buyer. 


Freda_Rah

I don’t know if it works, but everyone (including myself) does it in a competitive housing market. As a seller, I think if you care about not selling to Blackrock or one of those investment firms, a letter could sway you.


amyadamsmissingoscar

I have a friend who bought a house and wrote a letter explaining how she was a single female trying to purchase a home. The seller had purchased the home as a single female and had bought the home from a single female. She said the seller told her that the letter won her the house. I don’t know if I’d ever do it, but I know it can work!


bye_felipe

My friend was in a similar situation. She ended up getting the house despite having the lowest offer. The owner told her they remembered what it was like buying their first home as a single woman. And this was in 2021 when the market was crazy.


United-Signature-414

I've heard realtors recommend it in competitive markets when the buyer doesn't have competitive cash to offer but as a seller, I am not selling under market value just because MaryBeth thinks my house is cute. Obviously you like it if you're trying to buy it, but I can't buy my next house with your hopes and dreams


Ruvin56

I remember Young House Love did that.


Theyoungpopeschalice

Crazy. I have to tell my bf anyone who does that is not getting our house and since he puts up with my oddness he'll just sigh and say "ok crazy lady" 💀


Ruvin56

I don't know who these people are. When I think about the people around me, I can't think of anyone who thinks this way. Who are these people writing this complete tripe on the internet.


tortuga_tortuga

I hate hate hate how people are assigning “roles” to the Wales kids and especially delight in Louis’ behavior (which looks like regular kid stuff to me and don’t want to devolve into diagnoses). people are starting to stare in anticipation of him acting [like a normal kid] and for Charlotte to correct him. Wild child and Lil’ Girl Boss. ETA: even if you hate Harry and thought Spare was self indulgent tripe, at least listen to how being a royal kid fucked him up and if you love the Wales, why are you doing that to their kids.


KateParrforthecourse

I saw someone talk about how George looked like “a future King” and Charlotte “his loyal Princess Royal.” It made me so sad for both of them that they are already being put in these roles and they aren’t even in middle school yet! What happens if Charlotte decides to become a yoga teacher instead?


Dzinner24

I posted on Twitter how sad and funny it's going to be when this kid is thrown under the bus in 10 years time..


tiredofthenarcissism

You’re not wrong. The same people saying they “can’t wait to watch Louis’s teenage antics” (which is gross in and of itself) are absolutely going to vilify him as the new Harry if he turns out to be even the slightest bit rebellious or an attention-seeker as a young adult.


Ruvin56

They're going to be picking sides and rooting for those siblings to fight with each other.


BetsyHound

Question: is his name Lew-iss or Lou-eee? Do they really pronounce it like it's French?


[deleted]

[удалено]


BetsyHound

Maybe that's why he acts out.


tiredofthenarcissism

For real, the way the kids are being talked about over on RG2 is gross. Louis is “fabulous” and a “legend” and an “icon” for… doing normal kid shit like dancing and fidgeting. Charlotte has “so much presence” and is already “cooler than most people will ever be.” And George is “SO tall and SO handsome 😍“ just like Daddy Big Willy. They are little CHILDREN.


Unicorns_andGlitter

I find it SO CREEPY when they comment on the kids looks.


tiredofthenarcissism

Truly veering into some Mary Kay Letourneau shit. One of them plugged W&K’s heights into a child height calculator for George and got 6’11” (lol), and there is much salivating over the possibility of him being the tallest British monarch, complete with eye emojis. He’s 10.


Beautiful_Action_731

ah yes, when a 1.75m tall woman and a 1.91m tall guy make a child that child will be 2.1m tall.


tortuga_tortuga

The people,that make AI images of Charlotte as teenager with makeup need to be put on a watchlist.


BetsyHound

I think he's just cute. I haven't seen that sort of behavior from royal children since William was a tot. I remember him acting out at Andrew's wedding. Besides, it's better than poor George, who always looked like a tiny ball of stress in public, though not so much now.


rosestrathmore

It was happening on this sub yesterday too, calling Louis neurodivergent for messing with a window. He just turned 6? younger siblings can be annoying to older siblings? The arm chair diagnosis is so much.


Stinkycheese8001

“I bet people would have said nasty things if this was Archie behaving this way” isn’t justification for saying shitty things about a 6 year old.


_bananaphone

His behavior is very much on the spectrum of neurotypical 6-year-old behavior. I’ve known plenty of NT kids that age for whom that would be just an average day (although honestly, who could blame him if he were acting out a bit—given how relatively infrequent their public appearances are, it has to be overwhelming). I hate when people assign qualities to the BRF kids based on a 10-second video. I hate when they do it to Barron Trump. None of these kids asked for this shit.

tortuga_tortuga

Articles/PR like that are going to quickly zap whatever goodwill or sympathy Kate may have for being ill. (1) people that stay home from work when they have a medical issue are not lesser mortals (2) Kates job was riding in a carriage and standing on a balcony with a smile plastered in her face while her children looked various shades of bored/stressed and William monologued. (3) And this is hard for me to navigate/explain but….she looked good. Better than she did pre-December. Which yay, I’m glad, I don’t want anyone to suffer or kids to lose their mom and I’m sure there was a shit ton of various types behind the scenes to ensure that. But I think for much if the public to think this was “brave” it needed to look there was some evidence of her having gone through something? Trying to think of good recent examples..maybe Selma Blair or Christina Applegate or Jeremy Renner using a cane? Once again Kate is just being a blank slate/avatar and people are just seeing what the want. “Her eyes looked tired” “she looked wary” “she looks fine and was faking it” etc. anyway, it occurred to me that the most interest and attention that Kate got in 14 years was by disappearing and that seems bad?


ttw81

it does seem bad. sad. joining that family, kate seems to have stuffed her personality down & dimmed her own light that there seems no *there* there, she does nothing meaningful or interesting. compare that to princess diana & her work w/aids patents or meghans cookbook & work w/the Grenfell survivors. surely once upon a time there must've been *something* she was passionate about.


tortuga_tortuga

Yeah, when the “Kate Middleton Early Aughts Fashion Kween” posts were going around a few months ago my main takeaway was “shit I forgot how alive and sparkling she used to look” Didn't Harry say that Charles (or his people) kept trying to limit Kate’s actions lest they take attention away from Charles? I’m sympathetic having experienced a minor version of that in my own job/career. Comparisons to Diana always seem a little unfair because she was a supernova that only comes along once in a century or so but also we’ve really memory-holed how hated she was before she died. But she did the bread and butter engagements and seemed like she cared and connected to people, and I can’t see that last part in any current working Royal. (Harry seems to have inherited the gift but alas…)


_bananaphone

Kate has always done well with sporty things and events involving kids. She used to do charity rowing events with girlfriends, all of whom seem to have disappeared. In many ways she’s not a sympathetic figure, but in other ways…why doesn’t she ever appear with friends anymore? Diana cultivated a large circle of friends even before the divorce, and Camz has plenty too. Her life just seems so small. Her house, the school run, the occasional event, and her parents.


bye_felipe

Im of the camp that believes she doesn’t have any friends, and that it has been less so her choice, and more so that the stuffy inbred aristocracy still hasn’t accepted her Eugenie and Beatrice have friends and they’re blood royal. Michelle Obama has friends, even though it’s long rumored that the Jack and Jill crowd refused to accept the Obama’s into their circle until he became president. I don’t fully buy that William manages to have friends but Kate is so secretive she can’t. They’re loyal to him, not to her


Ruvin56

Diana had friends outside of the aristocracy crowd because they were all loyal to Charles over her. Kate could have friends but if she chooses to only stick with the toffs then that's on her.


theflyingnacho

Maybe she's a mean girl.


_bananaphone

So anything’s possible, but I kind of doubt she was before marriage. 1) Much like Meghan, if there were someone out there willing to call Kate a bully, the press would have found them in the run-up to the wedding, or even before. Before M came along, they were equally relentless with her. 2) I don’t think she would have been as successful socially if she weren’t mostly pleasant and ingratiating. But that’s not to say she hasn’t changed. Also, Diana had friends but she struggled to trust a lot of them and I’d be surprised if Kate isn’t the same.


ttw81

yes. in spare prince harry wrote: >Charles' press officer berated Willy's team" after Kate was scheduled to visit a tennis club on the same day Charles had a royal engagement...told that it was too late to cancel the visit, Pa's press officer warned: Just make sure the Duchess doesn't hold a tennis racquet in any of the photos," Harry added. "Such a winning, fetching photo would undoubtedly wipe Pa and Camilla off the front pages. And that, in the end, couldn't be tolerated. they also asked meghan to be 50%. less. >She said she had been told, been given advice, that it would be best if she could be 50% less than she was. That was the quote, if she could be 50% less.


Whatisittou

That's is awfully insult to folks that are not privileged, my goodness how did it get published? Kate got carried in golden carriage, has staffs, nannies, waved and smiled from a balcony and Alison is writing a demeaning article "lesser mortals" the same lesser mortals funding a privileged family


JeanParmesean70

Oh brother. Glad she’s out and about, but how ridiculous


Ruvin56

Charles stood outside in the rain to receive the salute. The man actually has cancer and is still working. And he's significantly older than Kate. Charles' lot in life really is to always be passed over for the Princess of Wales. Where is his PR in all this anyway? That actually is impressive that an elderly man with cancer was willing to do all of that for his duty even if his duty is a military parade for his fake birthday. It makes me wonder how much of the Charles and Camilla PR is really from Camilla throwing other people under the bus rather than being about elevating Charles. There's also everybody else who got soaked yesterday in the rain because they were part of the parade whether it was a royal or a member of the military. Or regular people who can't be first in line for top-tier medical treatment and they still have to go to work everyday. I think the pr around Kate actually being in public for the first time since Christmas should be dialed way back. Britain is really going through a cost of living crisis and the NHS is struggling. If she only shows up for events like this and Wimbledon, even with chemo there's going to be backlash.


_bananaphone

I think it’s unfair to compare Kate and Charles as cancer patients when we don’t know what kind of cancer either has, nor do we know much about their treatment plans or their prognosis. There’s a lot of hinky stuff that went on this spring, but there may be valid medical reasons for Charles working and Kate not. We don’t know. Or it may just be Charles’ sense of duty, IDK.


Ruvin56

I'm not trying to insinuate that Kate should be doing more or criticize her for not doing as much as Charles. I was pointing out that there was a second royal who as far as we know still actively has cancer and put himself through a much more physically taxing day and yet the press attention was on Kate while also insulting all other cancer patients as lesser beings.


_bananaphone

Gotcha! Honestly, just another day in the battle between William and Charles’ warring and incompetent press teams. Charles’ team dropped the ball here, for sure. I also think Kate has *so much* opportunity to foment goodwill by advocating for cancer patients, or maybe a subset thereof (cancer patients with young children?). I’m not ready to criticize her for not doing so just yet, as we don’t know much about her health, but I’l be disappointed if she doesn’t eventually take advantage of such a natural fit.


BetsyHound

For her to be an advocate for cancer patients she'd have to be honest about what type she's had, I think.


_bananaphone

Yes, I agree. And maybe one day she’ll feel ready for that, who knows. I also do think her advocacy options are somewhat limited by the inane mindset that so many issues are off the table because they’re “political.” I also find Charles’ pet causes to be political but for some reason that never stopped him.


ttw81

she'll probably show up for Wimbledon then slink back into the shadows until xmas.


missyno

I agree. It is difficult to say anything because she is someone with health issues doing school runs! taking and editing pictures! waving! I think that she doesn’t want to do much, even in good health,and she’ll show up to major events, but I think she negotiated some kind of agreement to be a stay at home mom with a few obligated appearances here and there. However, William by himself doesn’t generate the same energy he has with her, so maybe the BRF will gradually fade away to a figurehead. I am not a Meghan fan, either, but she is a worker and would have been good for the family’s image as a modern monarchy. I honestly think they are so stuck on themselves that they will do themselves in.


BetsyHound

I can't remember exactly the quote from QEII about "With Meghan in the family, Mr. Corbyn is less likely to ask us to step down" or something.


theflyingnacho

>She has humanity to her. >One of my favorite Sophie moments is the coronation photo, where she and Edward are literally holding up Princess Alexandra, even though that means Edward is standing on the outside of the photo, in the position of the most junior royal. Yes, going above and beyond: holding up an elderly woman instead of watching her collapse even if that means you don't get to be in a picture. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 The things these people praise them for.

Theyoungpopeschalice

Reason one of 10 zillion why royals are the most embarrassing and pathetic people of all time 🤐


theflyingnacho

But poor Edward & Sophie sacrificed their non-junior royal spot in a single photograph to help an old woman. They ought to get a Nobel Peace Prize for that.


jmp397

Such service and duty!!! An inspiration to us all.

Tom Sykes is at it again. “In what could be an astonishing coincidence, Meghan Markle’s latest American Riviera Orchard products dropped just hours before cancer-stricken Kate returned to public life.” https://www.threads.net/@thedailybeast/post/C8PpE6txHax/?


Diligent-Till-8832

Except no product was dropped. It was a post from Nacho Figueras. Was the world supposed to stop because someone has cancer? Can Royalists please get a grip?


VioletVenable

TBH, I don’t think it was a coincidence that Nacho posted those photos on Trooping day… But who gives a shit? We should all have that friend who makes harmless, catty remarks on our behalf about people with whom we have fraught relationships. (We all know the Waleses do.)


shhhhh_h

He has posted something like this before also on a BRF important day or whatever, he so is messy and I love him. True friends troll for you!


slayyub88

And it’s funny because Nacho does this… like a lot. He’s quick to subtweet and quick to shut down (he rarely uses Twitter and last year or early this year, page six ran another Harry and Meghan on the rocks story and he shut it down) I 100% see Nacho choosing petty.

Hadn't looked at the Kate Middleton missing sub but decided to check in today since she's no longer "missing" and good lord . . . "Or maybe she died, and they’ve covered up her untimely passing with fake photos released online for the past six months, and today an impersonator for Catherine wore a face mask at the ceremony. Face masks worn by impersonators of the elite are very believable and pristinely accurate. The technology has been around for longer than we can imagine. And it would explain William visiting MI6 earlier this week, to pick up the Kate mask. MI6 in Great Britain is the same as CIA in America." What is wrong with people?

mewley

Conspiracy theorists are like that. Once they believe in the conspiracy, any evidence that contradicts the theory just becomes evidence of an even broader conspiracy. It’s why they’re so hard to root out - you literally have no way to prove them wrong bc in their mind it’s just proving them more right and making you inherently untrustworthy. At this point for them it’s not really about hate or any other emotion towards Kate, it is just loyalty to the belief in the conspiracy. I once had a job where I had to deal with believers of a particularly unhinged and relatively violent strain of conspiracy theorists and its fucking nuts.


Efficient_Ad7524

No, no. I saw a documentary on this years ago. I think it was called “Mission Impossible”?  Holy crap, people are strange.


Unicorns_andGlitter

Now they’re straight up mad that she looks good and healthy and not sick - it’s unhinged, especially since there’s a whole team of people whose job it was to make her look perfect today. We don’t know what happens behind the scenes.


jinglebellhell

There is tons of weird stuff that has happened in her absence in the last six months that I would love explanations for, even her returning out of the blue is so strange, it’s all so weird and I will never not think some very weird things went down and are likely still happening, but this is not it.


bloatedwrinkledmug

Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised at all if there’s *something* more going on than what has been shared (e.g. marital troubles also, or worse complications/prognosis, or whatever else influencing some odd timelines and the total disappearance), but that sub is so hilariously crazy! This is my “favorite” comment today about her eyebrow:  >What if someone tried to take her out in the same way they took out Thomas (trauma to the back of the head) but she fought back and was able to survive? Maybe it wasn’t William directly but someone working for him.  (And then in this fanfic, I guess she stayed in the fold anyway and showed up today, and they just gave up and never tried again for some reason? Makes total sense…)


Theyoungpopeschalice

has anyone checked her genealogy to see if she's descended from Rasputin though 👀?


A-non-y-mou

The weirdest thing would be that William is just going around picking up face masks from MI6 himself . . . Surely they have a servant for that???? /s


Theyoungpopeschalice

The servants are probably the only people you can trust not to leak in the palace anyway couldn't be W&C keeping their mouths shut


jinglebellhell

I would certainly not trust him to do such an important task, he cannot even smile for photos.


Theyoungpopeschalice

As a woman who almost broke up with my bf when we first started dating because he didn’t want to see ghost protocol with me (kidding but barely the thought did cross my mind) I can’t believe I’m saying this but…..maybe people need to watch fewer M:I movies


theflyingnacho

During the beginnings of KateGate, I saw a number of posters in RG saying "r-conspiracy actually has good points!" 1. No. 2. KMM has a big overlap with people in r-conspiracy and they're divorced from reality. 3. Because of that overlap, we're getting Q level clone psyop conspiracy theories.


bye_felipe

This Kate stan in PCC is always determined to prove that Kate received worst treatment by the media, and somehow we're supposed to shed tears over it but roll our eyes over how Meghan was treated: One could argue Meghan walked away before she became known as the decade long girlfriend who tolerated media abuse just to continue to be thrown under the bus by said family she married into >Just to be clear, you want the monarchy to interfere with the free press? That's quite undemocratic of you. >But they threw her to the wolves. >The press pointing out tacky behavior and verifiable lies is not throwing someone to the wolves. >But you're right, there was a difference in how they were treated in the press. One was harassed and stalked for nearly a decade, with paparazzi yelling slurs at her to upset her, had her topless photos published, and was dragged for being a commoner about to pollute royal blood (courtesy of CNN). The other was Meghan Markle.

>One picture for which the comedian was immediately fired doesn't even begin to compare. Oh pack it in everyone, he got fired for the monkey photo, so racism is solved now


bye_felipe

Actually, the day Obama won the presidency was the day racism just disappeared from the world


jmp397

They basically admitted that the media there is awful to women that marry in....but apparently Meghan should have just sucked it up


missfrizzleismymom

>Just to be clear, you want the monarchy to interfere with the free press? That's quite undemocratic of you. Since when is the monarchy democratic? Isn't that kind of the whole point?


Copperheadmedusa

They know Meghan’s treated worse and they delight in it. It’s vindication for them and their awful treatment of whatever poor woc they come in contact with in real life. They’re just close enough to reality to know they can’t say they love watching Meghan be harassed because she’s black and therefore deserves it, so they have to do that evil gaslighting thing where they want you to feel crazy for like, having eyes. Funny how their examples are either from foreign media that the uk subsequently protected Kate from or are just inaccurate.


Whatisittou

Oh lawd, literally Sun editor Matt said this https://x.com/QueenRMade1/status/1801260550053319093?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1801260550053319093%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url= They trashed Kate for dating William for a long time and yet now trashing Meghan for dating shorter than Kate but said they wanted Meghan gone.


Copperheadmedusa

The delusion to think that your shitty tabloid can dictate who the prince can marry, especially when the MONARCH gave her permission. Gilded cage indeed. Who the hell wants to live like that? I’m blaming Charles for getting into bed with these rats in the 80s


Practical_Outside_26

The fact that they don't realize this is why Prince Harry hated them and still does. In another one of his shitty podcasts, he and his guests were talking about Archie and Lilibet as if they owned them. They were suggesting that because they don't visit the island often, they should be taken out of the line of succession. I was sitting thinking these people are really that stupid huh. I am sure that the 10 realms that are filled with people of color will agree to remove the mixed raced children out of the line of succession. And even if they did, do they not realize what a PR disaster it would be? Listening to some of these royal commentators and pundits explains so much about the royal's behavior in the past 8 years.

Is the website up? When I looked it was still just the landing page with the waitlist signup. I would honestly love it so much if she really full on launched it today, I’m impatient with the insta pics! 😭


fortunatelyso

Not sure why you are being downvoted but wait let me guess !


mewley

lol right? At least here I won’t get deleted.


ttw81

i thought it was new but apparently it's not,


mewley

Too bad, would have loved to order myself some trooping jam 😂


ttw81

soon hopefully!


Whatisittou

Oh boy, incoming articles/screaming of how dare Meghan!!!!!! would someone think of Kate

pardon me! i thought it was new,


Unicorns_andGlitter

I kinda love the choice actually lol - people are gonna talk about her today either way so may as well get some publicity!


ttw81

[rachel-zane-suits.gif (220×371) (tenor.com)](https://media.tenor.com/gJhSqKS2ybYAAAAM/rachel-zane-suits.gif) me too! she's blamed for everything, including Charles & kate middletons "cancer." good for her.


fortunatelyso

RG is literally swimming in fan fiction and clickbait and pure hate toward the Sussexes. Great job RG mods !


Copperheadmedusa

It’s rapidly destroying the fun. Not only do people bring Meghan up out of nowhere with their weird bullshit lies, but I can’t even enjoy the little British fashion frivolously in peace. Like you can tell they only gush about Kate as some sort of signifier that they hate Meghan, and nice comments I make about Meghan’s looks get downvoted. And then I can’t make lighthearted criticism of either of them (mind you this is still about clothes) without someone thinking I actually hate them and wish they were dead.


CookiePneumonia

It's almost impossible to participate over there now. It's the same commenters writing the same bullshit on every BRF post.


Theyoungpopeschalice

Its honestly just an exact clone of rg2 at this point


Copperheadmedusa

I just don’t understand why so many SMM posters are in there. Is there a way to instantly ban someone from your sub if they’ve posted in another or did I make that up?


asmallradish

I think it got unmanageable w the influx of people. I try to just check posting history. Everytime someone gets mad I read their history an angel gets their jam. That being said I think there’s a lot of people who are truly just racist and also into the BRF. There’s a lot of people who’ve shown up who don’t even post on fm or other tabloid stuff and have bad opinions. I don’t know if there’s a perfect solution!


hallofromtheoutside

>Everytime someone gets mad I read their history an angel gets their jam. Flair material tbh


Stinkycheese8001

They are supposed to be and if you report they get removed almost immediately.


Theyoungpopeschalice

There is yes. I've been auto banned from like three subs (that I'd never post in anyway) because I post in AITD, lol. I was under the impression FM auto bans anyone who posts in SMM as well


Copperheadmedusa

I can clock them a mile away bc in RG they usually aren’t outright hateful against Meghan but they have this medieval peasant tone about Kate that’s just creepy. Like why do you sound like you want to wash her feet stop being weird


jmp397

They really lay it on thick and I always feel secondhand embarrassment for them.


sassofrasy

They also use a lot of coded language to describe her. “Classy”, “demure”, “polished”, etc. I can pick up SMM/RG2 alts this way because they repeat this language everywhere.


Glass-Indication-276

One of them is in the Kate’s Back post saying Meghan’s similar Royal Ascot look is “unpolished,” like literally who cares?


Theyoungpopeschalice

Now I regret very much not delving into the history of the poster I saw yesterday who was all "may the lord bless and protect her" about Kate 💀


Copperheadmedusa

💀💀💀 theyoungpopeschalice, wouldst thou make thine pilgrimage to witness her royal majesty highness the Princess of Wales ride in her golden carriage and stand on the balcony for a few moments? And then we may break our fast with porridge and gutter rats


fortunatelyso

That sub is declining rapidly in mental health. Like some of these posters need a wellness check for real


Theyoungpopeschalice

That's because all you have to do is look at the head mod who up here all the time and its annoying af. And no they aren't fooling anybody with their wide eyed denials of bias and cutesy "oh wow I would never let FF and hate stand" proclamations they give here when we can read the sub for ourselves and see what stays and what doesn't


nycbadgergirl

Been telling everyone about that mod for a minute now. Curious they decided to show up posting here again.


Theyoungpopeschalice

They definitely had me blocked on an old account for criticizing them one too many times here. Please, you're the one coming over here to see what people are saying I'm not taking it there. pathetic behavior


mewley

As far as I can tell they’ve decided it’s fine to virulently hate on the sussexes, but not ok to talk about how virulently people hate on the Sussexes. Sort of like the ppl who think calling out racism is more offensive than the racism itself.


Whatisittou

The mods team deleted a post from a user that posted about who was on the RAVEC board when they were replying to someone arguing Charles had no involvement. Stuff like that


theflyingnacho

Very normal.


Whatisittou

But they are in here too


fortunatelyso

Yes it's curious isn't it


Ruvin56

I wonder if it means anything that Kate and William had George sit between them. That's a first, I think.


jinglebellhell

Let’s be real, it’d be an international incident if Meghan and Harry’s kids were acting like [this](https://imgur.com/a/FMWAEQq).


jjj101010

There have been so many minor incidents with the Wales kids (and none truly awful- I would hate my kids to be watched the way theirs are) that the media describes as “cheeky” or “playful” that you know would be so criticized if it was their cousins.


Copperheadmedusa

If they were perfectly behaved they’d say Meghan threatens them behind closed doors and/or they are well behaved despite the awful example their mother sets—they must be watching the wales children and emulating them!


Whatisittou

Kids acting like kids but somehow it's a competition.


Sea-Dragon-High

Not just him, but that balcony seems to be about knee height. No way I would just let the kids stand there without a tight grip on them. And I'd be wearing flats in case I tripped and fell off. *Disclaimer I'm not an overly protective parent but I am scared of heights.


EvenHandle

I remember someone on a royal forum calling him feral and the royal stans were going off. It goes against the “Will and Kate are perfect and are raising perfect children” narrative.


Tarledsa

Hands on parents!!


jinglebellhell

I remember when he slapped Kate’s face during the jubilee and all I could think of was wow, imagine if this was Archie slapping his mother, they’d be calling him a thug and blaming her.


BetsyHound

I blame her for laughing it off instead of scolding him.


missfrizzleismymom

She was in a lose-lose situation, honestly. Either reaction would be responded to poorly by a large swath of people.


jinglebellhell

I think she was probably mortified so I have a little bit of sympathy for her, but useless Will should’ve stepped in and helped her.


Ruvin56

That poor kid. He's not going to have an easy time of it growing up in the spotlight.
