Meghan 'has been upset and overwhelmed by her depiction on South Park for DAYS'
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Insiders claim Princess Meghan Markle
...unlikable American former starlet married to the formerly likable Prince Harry. Chock full of lefty political opinions and not many brains, Markle's most important characteristic is that she is Black, even though she doesn't look it. Her mother, y'see, is half black and her father is white, which would make her a quarter Black. Once married, she was too classy for the Royals and she and Harry decamped to Beverly Hills, kind of like the Clampetts did, because she was so much classier than the Winsdors....
has been left 'upset and overwhelmed' for the past few days at how she and Prince Harry
...That guy who married Meghan Markle. You know. The ones that didn't get invited to Michelle Obama's party?...
are depicted in an episode of South Park.

The episode, titled 'World Privacy Tour' pokes fun at the couple's grievances, while Meghan is introduced cuttingly as a 'sorority girl, actress, influencer, victim,' by another character.

The satirical series ridiculed the couple's demands for privacy while on a publicity blitz for the prince's autobiography 'Waaaah' - a dig at Harry's recent memoir Spare - in last week's brutal episode.

According to a source in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, Meghan spent the last few days ’upset and overwhelmed’ over how she was portrayed. The source told The Spectator that the Duchess of Sussex 'is annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it all.'

Earlier today, a royal commentator said Harry and Meghan's lawyers are 'casting an eye' over South Park.

#1 ...I have seen - maybe - half a dozen episodes of South Park in all the time it's been on. This may convince me to watch one more.

#2 /\ Take more than that for me. Same for NCIS. Playing darts in a ghaey bar has more appeal.

#3 "annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it"
So, she has been told someone refuses to fawn over her and it distresses her.
This is beyond parody.

#4 The farce of this horrible insult to the vestigial dignity of post-Elizabethan Royal dignity continues. Only a bulb as dim as Harry or as venal as his wife could fail to see the optics of suing a CARTOON parody of themselves!

#5 Harry and Meghan need to be like their late grandmother who took those kind of parodies in stride...

#6 From what I was told, a platform popular with teens picked up South Park and a generation raised on PC's retarded cousin Woke is discovering parody and mockery of those who have otherwise been placed on a pedestal.

And they love it.

#9 South Park is on sometimes when I ride the treadmill at the gym. One time, I chose my machine poorly during a commercial break and was treated to 20 minutes of cartoon characters bouncing around on enlarged scrotums like they were Hoppity Hops. It was nightmarish. My kids thought my plight was hysterical.

With respect to Megan, if she wanted respect and decorum, she fundamentally misunderstood her homeland. Good manners have been optional here since 1776 except for the years when conservatives controlled movie and television content. Meethinks that there was a time when she was in her 20’s that she would have welcomed South Park’s attention.

#10 Markle and her hubby are caught up in the dichotomy of wishing to be taken seriously without meeting the prerequisite of being serious in the first place.
