By now, the \u201cKaren\u201d meme has been documented in numerous viral videos of white women ranting at a man or woman who is a different race. When I first saw one of these, I thought, Is this real?<\/em><\/p>\n Apparently, it is. White women who think they’re entitled to… well, something…make spectacles of themselves in public places, demanding one thing or another. They seem to come from anywhere and everywhere, are usually either enraged or indignant – or both – and use some form of the word fuck frequently in the brief video clips.<\/p>\n Sometimes, these “Karens” are referred to as middle-aged white suburban women. I think of them as white female lunatics with big mouths who are often racist – you’re not white like me, you speak a language other than English and are therefore suspect, you’re an immigrant etc. etc. <\/em>They often threaten to call the cops, like this woman in Central Park.<\/p>\n
