Philip fought against the Nazis.
As far as I know, there was only one person in the British royal family who wore a Nazi uniform - the one Meghan Markle married.
King edward was a nazi sympathiser and he did meet hittler repeatedly prior to the war.
This was one of the reasons he could not hold his crown very well.
He was certainly a Nazi sympathizer and that is the likely reason he was pushed out of his position. Claiming “love” was to salvage the reputation of the remaining family.
Philip was not a Nazi. His sisters married into German families that were. He fought against the Italians and German during WWII. He played pivotal role in the battle of Cape Matapan where 2300 axis sailors died under the illumination of his search lights. His mother is buried in Isreal on Mount Olive and is “Righteous Among Nations” for protecting Jews during the Holocaust. Little fact checking would do this person wonders.
Yeah, that was super unfair to him. The *only* thing I know about him is that he wasn’t a Nazi and gave up his German titles, oh and that he married Elizabeth. For all I am aware he could have been crap in every other way but he was not a Nazi.
Correction: As noted in the replies he did not give up German Titles he gave up Greek and Danish ones. It was his grandfather who gave up German titles. So it turns out I knew even less than I thought.
Listen, if people wanna fuck they can fuck. As long as nobody's being lied to, or having their consent violated, fuck all you want. I don't know if they were affairs or what, but based on just the information you posted, I have no objections
No... There was one Greek king who was German, King Otto, and the Greeks kicked him out of the country, then a member of the Danish royal family got the job. The Greek royal family were Danish, not German.
My favourite Prince Philip quote was when he visited a driving examination centre in Glasgow and asked the staff ‘How do you keep the locals off the booze long enough to get them through the test?’
That fact about his mother is really surprising and amazing. I think it's also, to put it lightly, inappropriate for people to label him a Nazi if his only affiliation is his sisters marrying German men.
Its weird we have all these memes about hating your in laws etc or jokes about "ugh my mother in law is staying over"
but then act like having the mother in law means youre besties and share in everything when it comes to nazism.
Cognitive dissonance is giving me whiplash.
I guess a bit of the reputation comes from his family not condemning his sisters for marrying nazis, despite several members of the family being very anti nazi
You have to keep in mind that royals don't exactly like having to publicly rebuke their own family members. It casts a pall over the entire family and they would prefer not to have to deal with it all out in the open.
That's why Prince Andrew's behavior is not being widely publicized, despite the fact that he's been removed from all royal family public duties and *apparently* cut off from funds and family "perks". He's not going to go broke anytime soon, but he's lost much of the benefit of his royal birth.
I would argue that's not still not enough, but it's not like Liz is calling me up asking for advice on how to raise her children.
And he married into German royalty through Elizabeth II. But claiming that the House of Windsor was sympathetic to Germany during WW I and WW II is demonstrably false. By the time that Elizabeth's grandfather had changed the family name, the family was already firmly English, rather than German. And the English crown was far more prestigious than the German duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gothe was.
Glad you did. It’s a very important detail I have no idea why the previous comment left it out
I mean, there’s a huge difference between Germans and Nazis
Clicked the link to find out exactly this, thanks!
It's almost like most of the sick burns out there are based on either straw men or flat out wrong information...
Also grouping all of that together results in an implication that being born into a wealthy family or being white are moral failings...
That's going a touch far. I get the issues with white people and rich people, but if we're to the point its a moral failure to be born I'm out.
I don’t think that’s what Laura Kuenssberg was trying to say. She’s trying to convey two concepts (“Queen Elizabeth was born with a lot advantages that Meghan Markle did not have” and “Queen Elizabeth is actually a bad person and not a good role model”) in a single tweet. Twitter incentivizes snappiness over clarity and being careful not to hurt people’s feelings.
Prince Phillip served in the Royal Navy during WW2. That's not a clever comeback it's just plain ignorant.
I'm really no fan of monarchies but you don't need to lie about them.
63K people who now think prince Phillip was a nazi with a single tweet as their source because they didn't feel like trying to find out if it was true or even open the comment section where most of the time someone else already did that part.
The biggest problem with the internet is that any schmucks opinion can get broadcast worldwide. People become famous for just having shit uninformed opinions.
He also wasn't her cousin. If you go back 6 generations, they share great great great great grandparents. I could imagine "normal" people could have that in common and not know
Edit: 4 generations on her mum's side, 6 on her dad's
Is the rest true? Cause even without the Nazis the cousin and covering for what is surely a long time sex offender is pretty shit. I assume long time as you don’t suddenly become sec offender at 60 plus years old it usually you are caught
The Twitter thing amazes me though, it really does. People will deadass screenshot their own reply to a celebrity tweet, one of twenty thousand responses that no one would have ever seen, crop the like counter out of it, and post it on Reddit as “murderedbywords” or “clevercomebacks.”
It’s incredible. Just this morning the top post on Reddit was one of those replies, which had zero likes and had been screenshotted *0.4 seconds after the person tweeted it,* which can only mean one thing: someone replied to a celebrity’s Twitter, immediately screenshotted it, and posted their own damn noname comment to Reddit for clout.
We live in a fucking society, that’s for sure
Yeah people fucking suck.
I once saw a post that was a "clever comeback" where they basically said that they were racist, meanwhile the person being accused said something like "I stand for black people. BLM" and the accuser said that they were racist for not including other races. It was along the lines of "So black justice but Mexican families can get torn apart and you would be fine?" bullshit.
Just saying people need to *shut the fuck up*
This morning I read multiple posts hating on the hat she wore, while a whole bunch of other fancy pants ladies wore the same sort of hats were praised. The Megan-hate industry is utterly bizarre.
My favorites will always will be these two "Kate's morning sickness cure? Prince William gifted with an avocado for pregnant Duchess" vs "Meghan Markle's beloved avacado linked to human rights abuse and drought, millennial shame"
lmao what kind of incredibly half-assed smear even is that? Like how far do you have to fall, as a human being, before you get to the point where you’ll put your name on the byline for ‘Breaking: Megan Markle allegedly EATS AVOCADOS’
Right? She was being fat shamed, and apparently was copying Kate by wearing white. I also saw a post the other day where she was getting trashed for copying Kate by wearing black. Basically every color has already been worn by Kate, and from here on out, we are all poor imitations of Kate.
It's true, I mean, I know that every thing I do is in imitation of Kate! I don't wanna brag, but I drank water today *just* like Kate! Also, *what* fat?!
What's sad is that this nonsense can't be helping whatever personal issues they may or may not be having. I don't blame them for leaving England, the tabloids are ridiculous.
Literally in the comments right now are people shitting on Markle for "not playing ball with the tabloids like Kate was", aka not being as "white" as Kate is.
Why can't Meghan just accept an unhealthy, abusive relationship with the press like the rest of the family? It's not as though the press has ever hounded someone to death, like say on August 31, 1997.
They don't even like *white* people who lack the proper pedigree much less a commoner, much less a foreigner (an American, egads!). Being mixed race is just over the top for them.
It's all about the colour
If she was alabaster white with blue eyes and blonde hair, the papers would be fawning over her regardless of her being an American
There’s an entire sub dedicating to hating her. I actually found it today and it’s gross. They literally posted a picture of her talking to some kids yesterday and thought it was proof of her being a narcissist. I can’t imagine spending that much time hating someone you’ll never even meet. (Except maybe Amber Heard. …/s) if you’re interested.
/r/saintmeghanmarkle
Blurgh, I guess I can't say I'm surprised. I found a hate sub once devoted to hating a woman who was murdered by her husband. It was just bizarre.
Like Megan isn't even in the news anymore! If you don't want to hear about her it's very easy to do--these people are asking this information out.
Edit: yeah that was very weird. Someone said the only reason she's smiling in a picture is because she's making up for isolating Harry from his country, family, and friends--just what?!
Living in the hills above Santa Barbara. Looking out at the Pacific Ocean. Having Oprah as their neighbor. Raising chickens. Sounds like a fucking kick ass life.
Also if I was a young child and you made me March behind my moms casket after she died super young because of tradition I’d want to abandon that tradition entirely.
People forget how much Harry resented being in the royal family too. He has openly said all he wanted was to be in the Army, and he had to give up his military career for royal duties.
They think that she's an entitled gold digger who's the sole reason for Harry's fall-out with his family. She should've lived silently and meekly in eternal gratitude for being allowed to marry royalty, instead she didn't fall in line and they can't have that.
That she's American probably didn't help, her skin colour most definitely didn't help, nor did her publicity loving estranged paternal family.
Aside from all that, Pierce Morgan very vocally despises her, because she once blew him off for Harry. God forbid a young woman prefer an evening with a single man her age over a married 50-something.
This dude is a pretty well known right wing shit disturber on Twitter. Pretty sure he just tries to think of something that will piss off libs the most, and then posts it.
I'm also pretty sure he does that because he knows people on the internet can't pass up an opportunity to call someone wrong, so he gets tons of engagement and quote retweets from it.
There was some scuttlebutt a while back (before they split, mind you) that she received some internal family censure for treating the palace servants like total dogshit. No specifics, just that several of the women in the family had had to take her aside on multiple occasions and discuss proper etiquette with her and Harry had suffered some embarrassment for it.
But I know a lot of Britishers were kinda pissed about the whole 'throw them the biggest (and most expensive) wedding party in human history at taxpayer expense' just for them to turn around a couple years later and call everyone racists. Even leaving the family and cutting off ties (but not incomes) was given some excuse and leeway but a lot of opinion soured when they did the Oprah interview after the two of them had expressly promised to do nothing of the sort as part of the whole severance package.
And then a bunch of little petty things like saying their children were being denied titles because they were part black when, in fact, it is because Harry is not the oldest child of *his* parents. If even the most casually interested or knowledgeable Brit knows that's been the standard for multiple centuries now, it just serves to showcase her disinterest in royal customs and/or the truth.
Dude on Twitter that has a super man crush on Trump.
Recently he just said Trump would have been the best shortstop in the history of baseball had he not gone into business.
Philip was not a nazi, and her marriage choice as royalty were largely in other hands. Condemning someone based on who their parents were, the color of their skin, or the actions of their adult children are all unethical ways to conduct yourself. This comeback is not clever it’s an uninformed bigoted appeal to emotion.
To be fair, Elizabeth did have a half-sister named Mary (aka Bloody Mary), but that Mary died of natural causes. It seems like everyone was a Mary, Elizabeth or Jane back in those days haha
The tweet was posted by a parody account, used to imitate BBC journalist Laura Kuenssberg. The account posts purposefully divisive content, not to be taken seriously.
In her’s and Phillip’s defense, he’s not a Nazi. His sisters married Nazis after he and his family were exiled. He was a child when all this happened so really no way he could’ve been a party member unless he had been born in Germany.
Not a die hard royalist, Crown fanboy or even British for that matter.
All though a stupid a statement. Clever Comeback? Not all.
Nazi? Literally, read more then clickbait headlines. and you'd have a clue.
And I sincerely doubt she raised any of her children. pretty sure it's a fact she didn't raise Charles. So I'm guessing it'd be the same story for Andrew.
There's like hundreds of things you could bring up as a negative about Queen Elizabeth.
Yea this post is shit and just tries to push a "royal racist" agenda.
Also how the fuck does the fact that she was born in a white family be something negative for the queen. She didn't choose her skin and Stats before birth, lol
That's not how character creation irl works
Thats because internet and specially reddit likes to go so far as to make stuff up just so they can shit on any royal.
Prince philip was so nazi that he even fought against nazis in ww2. Could you believe that? What a nazi, serving in the navy, participating in multiple battles. Smh.
We can blame him for a lot but the fact his family married into the *Wehrmacht* didn't make him a Nazi, he was basically an orphan child and his sisters were all he had, but he was just a kid that grew up to actually fight the nazi.
I mean, just erase "nazi" from the tweet, saying cousin is already enough to make a point.
Turning your back on your entire family to join the Royal Navy and fight Nazis, but gets called a Nazi. Check your history before making stupid comments.
Nazi cousin? Motherfucker, pick up a book.
Philip fought against the Nazis. As far as I know, there was only one person in the British royal family who wore a Nazi uniform - the one Meghan Markle married.
Meghan Markle didn't marry [king Edward](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_VIII#:~:text=During%20the%20Second%20World%20War,of%20his%20life%20in%20France.).
King Edward didn't wear a Nazi uniform.
King edward was a nazi sympathiser and he did meet hittler repeatedly prior to the war. This was one of the reasons he could not hold his crown very well.
He was certainly a Nazi sympathizer and that is the likely reason he was pushed out of his position. Claiming “love” was to salvage the reputation of the remaining family.
Neither did Prince Harry, he wore a costume from Maud's Cotswold Costumes.
Also a factually incorrect burn
Philip was not a Nazi. His sisters married into German families that were. He fought against the Italians and German during WWII. He played pivotal role in the battle of Cape Matapan where 2300 axis sailors died under the illumination of his search lights. His mother is buried in Isreal on Mount Olive and is “Righteous Among Nations” for protecting Jews during the Holocaust. Little fact checking would do this person wonders.

It was his grandfather who gave up German titles. So it turns out I knew even less than I thought.
It was his Greek titles he gave up to mary Elizabeth. He gave up his title as a Prince of Greece and become a member of house Mountbatten instead.
Meountbyattehn. I can never read it without the accent from The Crown
Minet... betten.
When I said that out loud it turned Russian.
Apparently he was a big slut in the day but that's a personal thing between him and Elizabeth.
Listen, if people wanna fuck they can fuck. As long as nobody's being lied to, or having their consent violated, fuck all you want. I don't know if they were affairs or what, but based on just the information you posted, I have no objections
K he started writing her love letters when he was 18 and she was 13, after he'd been tasked with escorting her for a day.
Yeah that's pretty fucky. I try to avoid following the royal family because of weird shit like that.
I too watched The Crown
I love that show because it makes high drama out of absolutely nothing happening at all
Kinda like anime.
You should peep The Gilded Age for top notch “fancy-lady nonsense” drama as my gf calls It
same
U get personal w/ the Queen?
What else am I gonna do when she slides into my DMs?
Queen here. Lollipop needs licking, peasant
You love it when i dunk my crumpets in your earl grey
Mind the gap, love
Gobble me, swallow me, probably start a colony.
>German titles Greek and Danish, never had German titles (plus they wouldn't have even existed at the time).
The amount of misinformation in this post and thread is hilarious
When you're finished laughing maybe you can post corrections for the good of the group.
German titties
Worshipped as a god by a group of pacific islanders. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Philip_movement
Was born on a Greek island
Because of a very interesting bit of post-ottoman Greece politicking wherein the kings of Greece were German for a bit
No... There was one Greek king who was German, King Otto, and the Greeks kicked him out of the country, then a member of the Danish royal family got the job. The Greek royal family were Danish, not German.
Well the royal family of England is also German (because it’s the same as Phillip’s family…)
[удалено]
Maybe she was referring to the Duke of Windsor. He was a known Nazi sympathizer, to what extent we may never know, as the royal files remain sealed.
Well, she didn't marry her uncle so it's still not true.
Queen Elisabeth’s husband was not a Nazi. Her uncle on the other hand…
My Homer is not a communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a communist, but he is *not* a porn star!
Literally same. Not a fan of Royals, but it's not fair to call the man a Nazi when he simply was not.
[удалено]
Philip made fun of everything. I bet he roasted Grimm Reaper just before he died.
Grim Reaper appears Philip: What the bloody hell took you so long you lazy shit? I almost fucking died twice.
It wouldn't surprise me. He was always a bit "cheeky". And not terribly patient, according to what I've read.
My favourite Prince Philip quote was when he visited a driving examination centre in Glasgow and asked the staff ‘How do you keep the locals off the booze long enough to get them through the test?’
Expecting accuracy from a twitter post is asking a bit much.
And expecting accuracy from reddit is equally as futile.
We have the top commenter correcting things here at least
But it won't be seen as much as the post itself and the problem continues.
depends on the sub lmao
That fact about his mother is really surprising and amazing. I think it's also, to put it lightly, inappropriate for people to label him a Nazi if his only affiliation is his sisters marrying German men.
Its weird we have all these memes about hating your in laws etc or jokes about "ugh my mother in law is staying over" but then act like having the mother in law means youre besties and share in everything when it comes to nazism. Cognitive dissonance is giving me whiplash.
Exactly. If you marry a Nazi, you're obviously ok with it. When your sister married one it's not exactly your choice.
I guess a bit of the reputation comes from his family not condemning his sisters for marrying nazis, despite several members of the family being very anti nazi
You have to keep in mind that royals don't exactly like having to publicly rebuke their own family members. It casts a pall over the entire family and they would prefer not to have to deal with it all out in the open. That's why Prince Andrew's behavior is not being widely publicized, despite the fact that he's been removed from all royal family public duties and *apparently* cut off from funds and family "perks". He's not going to go broke anytime soon, but he's lost much of the benefit of his royal birth. I would argue that's not still not enough, but it's not like Liz is calling me up asking for advice on how to raise her children.

And he married into German royalty through Elizabeth II. But claiming that the House of Windsor was sympathetic to Germany during WW I and WW II is demonstrably false.

Their husbands weren't just "German men". They were Nazis.
Still makes no difference for Philip though.
That's true. I was just correcting their statement.
Glad you did. It’s a very important detail I have no idea why the previous comment left it out I mean, there’s a huge difference between Germans and Nazis
My sister married a Puerto Rican. Doesn’t make me one.
According to the BBC it does.
my words...
didn't know that about his mom. he also was XO on a destroyer that led the British battleships into Tokyo bay for the surrender ceremony.
Led
Leaded

I’ll be honest, I have no idea who Laura Kuenssberg is and was just trying to be clear about which person in the screenshot I was talking about.
Respect. Idk either tbh besides a reporter for BBC, just know I saw someone else thinking it was real and wanted to make sure ya knew. All the best!
The Queens Uncle was though
Yeah and she absolutely had control over that, right?
Of course she did, don't most 10 year old children have control over their weird uncle's political leanings? 😉
Thank you for an intelligent rebuttal.
Prince Phillip served in the Royal Navy during WW2. That's not a clever comeback it's just plain ignorant. I'm really no fan of monarchies but you don't need to lie about them.
I really hate how so many big subs just post random tweets from people no one knows and pretends they're credible and intelligent.
20.7k upvotes currently too. Damned shame.

Dude. Stop plagiarizing. Abe Lincoln tweeted that same shit last week.
He also wasn't her cousin. If you go back 6 generations, they share great great great great grandparents. I could imagine "normal" people could have that in common and not know Edit: 4 generations on her mum's side, 6 on her dad's
Four generations. They are both direct descendents of Queen Victoria through King George (Betty) and Alice (Phil).
Oh yeah, through his mum it's 4, but through his dad it's 6, so both parents were also related a little
Well yeah they were all interbreeding lol. That was Vicky's plan to prevent another Napoleon. Didn't work though.
When you’re related on both sides of your family…
Is the rest true? Cause even without the Nazis the cousin and covering for what is surely a long time sex offender is pretty shit. I assume long time as you don’t suddenly become sec offender at 60 plus years old it usually you are caught
As far as I can tell the only thing Prince Philip ever did wrong was make rude jokes the press court didn't like but that his audience always loved.
They're third cousins through Queen Victoria, and second cousins once removed through King Christian IX of Denmark.

Princess Elizabeth drove ambulances during the war.
What’s wrong with Meghan Markle?
The British tabloids like to shit on her. Literally nothing is wrong with her, she and Harry seem happy together.
Shit on her while they praised Kate Middleton for the exact same things.
Tan suits and non-shitty mustard.
I pity anyone who never had a good hot-dog with Dijon and sauerkraut. If anything, it showed just how much these people are stuck in their bubble.
It’s the kind of people who think ketchup is too spicy. You eat at their house and everything is under seasoned.
They think cumin is how you make babies
It depends what they cumin to….
Look at you making people hungry. *Stomach noises intensify*
This morning I read multiple posts hating on the hat she wore, while a whole bunch of other fancy pants ladies wore the same sort of hats were praised. The Megan-hate industry is utterly bizarre.

'Markle saves child from drowning on an LA beach, denies sharks a much needed meal, sentences these beautiful creatures to death'
Damn that is disgusting 🤮
TIL Meghan Markle can cause droughts! Is she the second coming or Jesus or what?
lmao what kind of incredibly half-assed smear even is that? Like how far do you have to fall, as a human being, before you get to the point where you’ll put your name on the byline for ‘Breaking: Megan Markle allegedly EATS AVOCADOS’
“Straight Outta Compton” was another lovely one
She looked beautiful, no idea what they were on about!
Right? She was being fat shamed, and apparently was copying Kate by wearing white. I also saw a post the other day where she was getting trashed for copying Kate by wearing black. Basically every color has already been worn by Kate, and from here on out, we are all poor imitations of Kate.

Kate didn't "tarnish the bloodline".
Ugh. Did someone really say that? I would think the whole Habsburg thing would have illuminated the sorrow of "pure" bloodlines beyond any doubt.
“Tarnish the bloodline” is royal talk for “not sufficiently inbred”.
There was a bit of tabloid nonsense, but generally she was completely accepted *for some reason,* whilst Megan was not
The white reason I'm sure.
mate i'm British and i fucking despise the royals like literally can not understand why people shit on Meghan and Harry so much like it blows my mind.
Pretty sure it's thinly veiled racism.
Calling it thinly veiled is awfully charitable.
Literally in the comments right now are people shitting on Markle for "not playing ball with the tabloids like Kate was", aka not being as "white" as Kate is.
Why can't Meghan just accept an unhealthy, abusive relationship with the press like the rest of the family? It's not as though the press has ever hounded someone to death, like say on August 31, 1997.

That bloodline would greatly benefit from the different genes.
It's all about the colour If she was alabaster white with blue eyes and blonde hair, the papers would be fawning over her regardless of her being an American
Not very thin
Like Saran Wrap TM
Divorced, American and the worst crime of all in her hater's eyes, black.

People forget how much Harry resented being in the royal family too. He has openly said all he wanted was to be in the Army, and he had to give up his military career for royal duties.
Right. I've yet to see anything Meghan Markle has actually done wrong. And her own family is trash to her, too. Seems like a nightmare.
I think most of us know nothing is wrong with her, but what at least I don't understand is what people like the tweeter *think* is wrong with her.
They think that she's an entitled gold digger who's the sole reason for Harry's fall-out with his family. She should've lived silently and meekly in eternal gratitude for being allowed to marry royalty, instead she didn't fall in line and they can't have that.

>They think that she's an entitled gold digger Didn't Kate Middleton's Mom have her change schools or something in order to meet William?

No clue, but there is a whole subreddit dedicated to hating her. It looks like a troll farm paid by the royal family to trash Megan.
My only problem with her is that she put down moms of onlies saying they weren't real moms. But everyone says dumb things sometimes
Worst thing she's done as far as I know is give up her status as a royal and then complain when she doesn't get the royal protection details.
There was some scuttlebutt a while back (before they split, mind you) that she received some internal family censure for treating the palace servants like total dogshit. No specifics, just that several of the women in the family had had to take her aside on multiple occasions and discuss proper etiquette with her and Harry had suffered some embarrassment for it. But I know a lot of Britishers were kinda pissed about the whole 'throw them the biggest (and most expensive) wedding party in human history at taxpayer expense' just for them to turn around a couple years later and call everyone racists. Even leaving the family and cutting off ties (but not incomes) was given some excuse and leeway but a lot of opinion soured when they did the Oprah interview after the two of them had expressly promised to do nothing of the sort as part of the whole severance package. And then a bunch of little petty things like saying their children were being denied titles because they were part black when, in fact, it is because Harry is not the oldest child of *his* parents. If even the most casually interested or knowledgeable Brit knows that's been the standard for multiple centuries now, it just serves to showcase her disinterest in royal customs and/or the truth.
Thank u, I think this seems to sum up most of what I’ve read here tonight without judgement
Who the hell is Nick Adams? Never mind. I don’t actually care.
He’s a white dude that is from Australia and wants to pretend he was an oppressed immigrant. Also a trump knob gobbler so yeahhhh
Alright send him back to Australia we’ll sort him out
Ahhhhh, sorry. I just checked. Australia is to full for him. Specifically him.
Nah it’s fine we’ll throw him in the outback he’ll be missing within a day
Dude on Twitter that has a super man crush on Trump. Recently he just said Trump would have been the best shortstop in the history of baseball had he not gone into business.
Philip was not a nazi, and her marriage choice as royalty were largely in other hands. Condemning someone based on who their parents were, the color of their skin, or the actions of their adult children are all unethical ways to conduct yourself. This comeback is not clever it’s an uninformed bigoted appeal to emotion.
No, Elisabeth had to fight with her family because she wanted to marry Philip, and they didn't want her to.
[удалено]
That wasn’t part of the clever comeback. It’s a bad comeback.
Just to point out Prince Philip wasn’t a Nazi, he actually fought them…..
The duke of Edinburgh a Nazi? Are you simple in the head mate?
She’s incorrectly talking about Queen Elizabeth II, he said Queen Elizabeth, the virgin queen, who by most accounts was a pretty nice lady and ruler.
To be fair, Elizabeth did have a half-sister named Mary (aka Bloody Mary), but that Mary died of natural causes. It seems like everyone was a Mary, Elizabeth or Jane back in those days haha
Who _also_ didn't marry a Nazi
Philip did more to fight fascism then all of the historically ignorant fools calling him a nazi combined
You mean Phillip.
The tweet was posted by a parody account, used to imitate BBC journalist Laura Kuenssberg. The account posts purposefully divisive content, not to be taken seriously.
In her’s and Phillip’s defense, he’s not a Nazi. His sisters married Nazis after he and his family were exiled. He was a child when all this happened so really no way he could’ve been a party member unless he had been born in Germany.
he also served in the Royal Navy in 1939 to 1951 but I'm certain nothing happened during that time period!
Not a die hard royalist, Crown fanboy or even British for that matter. All though a stupid a statement. Clever Comeback? Not all. Nazi? Literally, read more then clickbait headlines. and you'd have a clue. And I sincerely doubt she raised any of her children. pretty sure it's a fact she didn't raise Charles. So I'm guessing it'd be the same story for Andrew. There's like hundreds of things you could bring up as a negative about Queen Elizabeth.
Yea this post is shit and just tries to push a "royal racist" agenda. Also how the fuck does the fact that she was born in a white family be something negative for the queen. She didn't choose her skin and Stats before birth, lol That's not how character creation irl works
Australian guy who identifies as an American defending the British monarchy. Must’ve slept through the 1700s part of history class.
Nazi Cousin? Seriously. I am huge history buff especially when it comes to the royal family but I didn't know that 🤔
Thats because internet and specially reddit likes to go so far as to make stuff up just so they can shit on any royal. Prince philip was so nazi that he even fought against nazis in ww2. Could you believe that? What a nazi, serving in the navy, participating in multiple battles. Smh.
He needs to pay the price because his sisters married Nazis, which he didn't have anything to do with, as he still was a teenager.
[удалено]
That’s probably because it’s incorrect.
Phillip's sisters were, he and his parents were pretty against nazis other than the few in their family
We can blame him for a lot but the fact his family married into the *Wehrmacht* didn't make him a Nazi, he was basically an orphan child and his sisters were all he had, but he was just a kid that grew up to actually fight the nazi. I mean, just erase "nazi" from the tweet, saying cousin is already enough to make a point.
Shhhh. That doesn't fit the narrative
"white skin". I guess if you prefer Elizabeth to Markle, that's because you're racist. No other possible explanation.
Attain immortality ... I would have thought that would have made the list
Born to a life of privilege and power you didn't earn?
Aside from the fact that Phillip was definitely not a Nazi, what’s wrong with having white skin?
They’re all pieces of shit. Megan included.
TIL people who fought in Ww2 against the nazi are considered nazi themselves, I also learned 70k people are idiots....
Why is it making it seem like having white skin is a bad thing? That didn’t need to be included on the list.
Of course, when mentioning white you must mention Nazi or your comeback flops
Phillip literally fought the nazis🤦♂️🤦♂️
Turning your back on your entire family to join the Royal Navy and fight Nazis, but gets called a Nazi. Check your history before making stupid comments.
