Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s thoughts on Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to end censorship on his platform has just sparked a massive clapback by columnist and Assistant Editor Michael Deacon.
He shared all his thoughts about the couple’s statement issued against the decision, and penned it all in a piece for The Telegraph.
The piece began with Mr Deacon showcasing just how badly the Sussexes seem to be in keeping in touch with reality because while “this type of shrill hyperbole was effective,” not to long ago.
And “helped progressives get their own way, by cowing the rest of society into meek compliance,” that’s not the case anymore.
Because “these days, most people have had quite enough of lofty Lefty scolding. They’re sick to the back teeth of being lectured. And anyway, they can see right through it,” Mr Deacon went as far as to allege.
The reason is because, “They know modern progressivism is not really about kindness. It’s about control,” he noted.
“Control of the words ordinary people are allowed to use, and the opinions they’re allowed to express. And they know that such an approach is not just bossily officious, it’s dangerous.”
Before signing off he also went on to add, “If the Sussexes were remotely in touch with public feeling – in either Meghan’s country of birth or Harry’s – they would have realised this. They would recognise that times have decisively changed. The mood has shifted. The world has moved on.”
