I'm sure those posters thought they were being clever, but their intentions were clear to me. There have been a number of other comments about both Meghan and Archie with similar veiled comments. (And some posters haven't even attempted to be subtle--they are just flat-out racist.)
Yes, it’s disgusting what has been said or alluded to about that baby. Can you imagine the threats and letters that have been privately sent to the family and aren’t making it into the main-stream media? I can’t imagine how terrified they must be for their baby’s safety. With how Harry lost his mom, he must be going out of his mind.
Im clearly wasting too much of my time reading up on this stuff, but in my opinion they have to decide. They are either all in or all out. They either become full-time hard working members like Prince Edward, Sofie Wessex, and Princess Anne (which means ignoring the negative press, giving up their political opinions (the monarchy is apolitical), and taking a backseat and supportive role to Will & Kate OR, they relinquish the titles, state monies and live off their private inheritances and earnings as celebrities. Any other way will hurt the monarchy which is their family (and arguably, the primary source of their fame).
