Meghan Markle has just been branded a ‘narcissist’ that is incapable of admitting when their at fault.
Royal commentator and contributor Caleb Bond issued this claim in his piece for Sky News Australia.
Mr Bond began pointing out how “Narcissists aren’t particularly good at admitting they’re at fault.”
“Everyone else is usually to blame. Thus “any excuse can be deployed, anyone can be thrown under the bus – so long as they can maintain the self-delusion that they are perfect in every way.”
“Meghan Markle has become an expert in this field,” in the eyes of Mr Bond.
“She thought she ought to be paid for performing royal duties. She couldn’t understand why she was expected to continue royal duties after there was a fire within earshot of her son – though at no risk of causing him harm.”
“It wasn’t that she was a snowflake. It was the cruel, insensitive royal machine expecting her to act like a normal person after nothing serious actually happened.”
“Lately she's been at it again, claiming she’s not ‘demanding’ and that such a perception comes down to the ‘angry black woman trope’.”
“Of course, it would have nothing to do with the fact that she signed up to be a royal, which involves a life of public service, and then realised how much work it was so she buggered off to the US for some quote-unquote privacy.”
“And as all good private people do, she discussed this on her multi-million dollar, top-rating podcast.”
Before concluding he also added, “The perversion of celebrity – closely intertwined with narcissism – is strong in Ms Markle.”
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry deemed narcissist, compared to Kanye West and Trump
This has prompted a coordinated attack from many media outlets against the two of them. According to Politico Magazine editor Joanna Weiss, they are in the same category of narcissist as the likes of Kanye West, Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Elizabeth Holmes, and Sam Bankman-Fried. This editor believes they all have overstayed their welcome into the zeitgeist.
Weiss wrote a column titled, '2022 is the year we all finally got tired of narcissists'. She makes an argument that these figures spend their entire lives pursuing the limelight. Both the Duke and Duchess have gome to extreme measures that have turned them from sympathetic figures to a real nuisance to the entire world. Something extremely similar has happened to allthe other figures mentioned in this article, every single one of them with a specific story.
Weiss' attack on Meghan and Harry
This is what Weiss wrote on her column: "My natural sympathy for the couple started turning to irritation, and it occurred to me that ego has its limits. And it struck me that the overreach that led to the Sussexes' critically panned mega-series is the same impulse that turned Elon Musk into a terror on Twitter, that prompted Ye to up the ante of outrageous behavior until he crossed the line into blatant antisemitism, that sent Bankman-Fried from the top of the world to a Bahamian jail."
Does this column writer have a point or is this simply one more of these coordinated attacks? There are many media outlets that are notoriously keen on jumping on the cancel culture wagon. Politico has been doing it for years, especially during the Donald Trump presidency. Comparing Meghan and Harry to many of these figures that actually hurt the people can be considered a little overboard by some. If these journalists are Royal Family sympathizers, they could very well abstain from writing about the Royal Family completely.
