Okay, I'm gonna need for people who are calling this a slur, and "racial slur" to stop! Okay? When you are a "Karen," that means you've opted-in -- and if it don't apply, let it fly!

But the fact is, if someone is labeling you "Karen," that means you've done something to warrant that label. You're not just sitting there minding your own business. And generally it means that you've stepped into something--into somebody else's business--that you have no business stepping into.

And you've made a spectacle of yourself based on some degree of privilege that you believe that you have. If that applies to you, KAREN, then that applies to you! If it doesn't apply to you, then just let it fly! Why people want to...when people are like "oh, it's the new n-word"... ARE YOU SERIOUS, KAREN?! That is a Karen! Okay?

She says she gets paid by the government. I bet she's receiving some kind of public assistance.

Most people who work for the government are smart enough to not be recorded saying something like that.

No, she didn't say that. She said she gets paid by the government. So, she might have a government job, or she might be receiving some kind of benefits like SSDI.

Is this "karen" and chick usage signaling a desire to retreat to the fifties?

Must we endure pink flamingo lawn ornaments again?
