Among the pieces of supposed evidence in the sham trial against the duchess?

She and pal Mindy Kalingare out-of-touch rich ladieswho laugh at people for wearing Zara.
Meghanis lying to us about her upbringing, and by the wayshe barely knows how to cook.
And all that cut fruit arranged into rainbows?An indulgent waste of time.
It was as if those podcasters and TikTokers had been watching a totally different show.
So Meghan was putting pretzels into a smaller bagwhats wrong with a thoughtful touch for a houseguest?
(Its actually funny!)
Tabloid magazines have a different name and look than regular news sources.
No such textual or visual disclaimer exists for the aforementioned creators and their wild spins.
(Even if they sold Page Six a photo, at least that photo was real.)
Here, again, the memes had fairly little to do with the truth.
A meme in its best, most harmless form spins a nugget of reality into a joke.
But whats increasingly happening is that people are getting clout from inventing a new reality altogether.
More often than not these spins have one end goal: to dismiss or discredit someone or something.
And the danger of being dismissive is cutting off another point of view.
What ever happened to forming an opinion of your own?
As Abraham Lincoln once said, Dont believe everything you read on the internet.
