We’re stolid and mature, white Britons not feckless and flamboyant African-Americans, Meghan!
By Stanley Collymore
Quite sickeningly to us white and sober Brits, even if
on our part rather duplicitously so, they’re a total
discredit to us all; and however it’s viewed
there’s no getting away from it! Always
publicly holding hands; constantly and insufferably
forever smiling at each other, while persistently
and seemingly inescapably so unable to stop
themselves from being so constantly lovey–
dovey! Utterly disgusting to see, these
overt and public displays of rather
unconstrained demonstrations
of what at best to us plainly
and obviously restrained
very British observants,
certainly ought to be
private and, even
then, severely
constricted
emotions.
Genuine though they may be to Harry and Meghan;
even so, to all responsible Britons who fervently
and quite sensible disapprove of such blatant,
most common and completely unnecessary
open displays of what surely should simply be,
and then distinctly only discretionary to all
responsible British persons, actions of the
uttermost privacy, jointly Meghan and
Harry have nevertheless through the
process of what’s clearly childish,
and most glaringly troublesome
irresponsibility, significantly
grotesquely distorted what
should be discreet marital
affection into what has
disgustingly by them,
and very despairingly for all
us true British, become an
overzealous spectacle of
their dissolute and very
licentious exposition!
And what’s even more irritating in all of this,
is that Harry and Meghan are indisputably
a married couple, and between them are
the biological parents of a consciously
planned almost one year old son, Archie;
and therefore shouldn’t be exhibiting,
much less so take to brazenly and
publicly, flaunting their tawdry
personal affections so openly;
and doing so incredibly in,
of all places, our United
Kingdom! For we are
unmistakably, and
most proudly so,
sophisticated Britons not flippant
and demonstrably ostentatious
African-Americans! Or, God
forbid and worst than that
still, if at all conceivable,
literally end up simply
as everyday ordinary
common-o-garden,
like everyone else
—human beings?
And forcefully and bluntly put, as well as for
your evidently ill-informed benefit Harry
and Meghan, this sort of unwarranted
behaviour is decidedly non-British,
frightfully common and on balance terribly
embarrassing for us all and, specifically
too, our historically, societally class–
structured; inured and differential
existence; imperialist by divine,
holy commendation; laudably
overseen and trustworthy,
inheritable, monarchical
system; and, of course,
so obviously contrary
to everything which
positively and enduringly
encompasses in all their
embodiment the souls
of us laudably white,
God-enshrined and
unequivocally also
Caucasians, who
perceptibly are
aptly Britons!
