Everyone's talking about,
the interview with Harry and
Megan with Oprah.
And of course, the view,
is no exception to that.
One of the big angles to that story
is how, Piers Morgan absolutely
lost it over the fact that
the interview happened, over the
allegations of racism made in the
interview toward the royal family.
So the latest
with the view discussed it.
And that's pretty much all
the context you need to understand
this nonsensical video that we're
about to show you take a look.
>> At the American experiment is
the way to go.
And if we have two American women,
Megan Markel, and Oprah Winfrey who
are single handedly finishing with
George Washington on our
revolutionary counterparts did,
I'm all for it.
>> Okay.
[LAUGH] >> So we'll be expressing
So probably what most people feel
when they watch that clip.
So what she's trying to say,
like you should watch the whole
thing in more context.
I don't want to sit through it,
which is why we don't have the full
context for you, but
I can explain like she's
Trying to make a point about how I
don't want to defend the royal
family because I'm an American and
I'm proud of America and we're so
wonderful and I have so much pride
in my country patriotism this
patriotism that the same jingoistic
nonsense that you can expect from
the Meghan McCain's of the world.
And then she goes on to like start
criticizing Megan Markle a little
bit.
But then like,
immediately like goes to, did you
know that young people in the UK do
not have pride in their country?
And that's wrong.
Which is why it's wrong
that Megan Markel said this like,
that was kind of what was implied.
And then she went on to, but
America is the greatest, there's no
other country that's even great.
So it's great that an American is
in the UK,
trashing the royal family.
It was just like a ridiculous,
Statement and that's what megan
mccain is there for, to be honest.
I mean, that's what makes the show
entertaining.
>> Yeah,
it's the producers obviously know
they have something on their hands
because they can easily,
create tension just by having this
woman speak at all, about anything
any subject matter, because she has
such horrible and horrific taste.
I, just find it hilarious,
that anybody Meghan McCain,
Piers Morgan,
anybody would be surprised that.
The inventors of colonialism
racially problem views right?
I don't know why I sheepish I feel
like I was trying to make that
point yesterday but
I did it sheepishly like I was
almost afraid and I don't know.
why >> this concept and
not even like colonialism as in
The American colonies and
yada yada yada like Neo colonialism
go to go to India go to West Africa
go to all these different places
where the British Empire Pyre kind
of went over there and said, Look,
we're coming here to civilize
the savages and for the benefit of
you guys, and how you guys were
playing repairs is by letting us
extract every single resource that
your country has to offer for
ourselves in our own enrichment.
You guys get British culture
[LAUGH] It's like, it's insane,
this is those same people who
looked at people as savages,
mud huts, this, that and the third,
these people are spear chuckers,
yada ,yada ,yada,
they are not as provind as the fine
people from England.
They come from the family who
invented that.
Okay, and these idiots walk around
in crowds and as their actual
bloodline is some pure nobility and
people entertain it.
And the funny thing is man,
it shows so many things to me.
It's like >> The interest that
these people still are able to
generate just shows me honestly,
the instinct that everyday people
have for
bootlicking and it makes me sad
like people literally want to have.
People that idolize and sort of
look up to for no other reason than
that they're better than them.
It's quite sad, sad, sad to see it.
>> In that same segment, Joy Bayhab
made a smart point that I think
that all too often I'm dismissive
of personally, and it's just how
powerful identity is because what
you're saying about like
the conservatives and even people
in the UK are pretty furious like
based on polling that I've seen.
They're they're not happy with
that interview.
And I couldn't understand
why because in my mind like.
We're talking about like a symbolic
monarchy.
This is these people don't really
have any real power like, but it's
part of their identity, right?.
And so when you have someone or
in this case two people, talk to
Oprah who's like The American Queen
of broadcasting about how awful
the royal family is.
And the royal family is such a huge
part of the identity in
Britain right?
Well then it leads to this very
visceral reaction that leads
to the backlash that unfortunately,
they're getting right now.
But I think true love of country is
the willingness of seeing it for
what your country is.
And being real about its flaws,
being real about its history, and
wanting to do whatever it
takes to make it better, right?
Not just so it looks like a good
place to the rest of the world but
so it's a good place for
everyone living in it.
And like this, negative knee jerk
reaction like, I mean, you want to
talk about people getting triggered
nothing triggers people more,
than admitting that your country's
flawed.
[LAUGH]. >> And that it's not
the greatest country in the world.
>> Yeah. >> And that it could be,
but it things need to change,
all right?
I mean America, for instance,
never wants to learn any
lessons from other countries that
are actually doing things right.
Like, I mean, you'll have US
politicians tell you that Canadians
hate their health care system
when in reality, polling from
Canada indicates that people love
their health care system.
Yeah. Would they want some tweaks,
maybe a little reform here
and there?
Sure.
But overall compared to our health
care system, I mean, no question.
They love their health care system,
way more than they could ever love
broken system like the one we have
me saying that doesn't mean I hate
America.
me saying that means that I think
America has the capability to
evolve into a much greater country
that actually looks out for
the common good, as opposed to
allowing a small group of people
to hoard all the resources and
wealth for themselves.
>> And yeah, just the idea that
the Royals need protect thing of
all people right like, like I get
that I guess people in the UK
do associate a lot of the national
identity with these people.
These Germans by the way.
Is this weird to me that.
This kneejerk clutching of
the pearls for
the most literally the most
privileged people on planet earth
like and this isn't like live
white privilege nonsense crap that
we hear here in the US don't like
hese people like actually enjoy,
more privileged than anybody ever.
People just want a TV show, and
certain people have to put their
capes on forum.
It's quite ridiculous honestly.
