And why is she running our lives all of a damned sudden?
A Karen is a person, usually a woman, who is never satisfied with the service she’s receiving and demands to talk to the manager. It doesn’t matter if Karen’s complaints are valid or not.
This is because Karen has been incentivized by cowardly corporate officers and government officials (but, I repeat myself) to get something she doesn’t deserve simply because they want her to shut up and not disturb everyone else.
It was one thing to indulge Karen her entitled behavior when she was getting a free order of fries or month of cable. It’s quite another when Karens become the State’s target audience for public policy.
It’s worst of all when they’re the ones MAKING policy, a la Commissar Gretchen “Karen” Whitler.
Karens, at heart, are simply spoiled children who have never had boundaries properly set. A little power creates a self-reinforcing feedback loop.
Progressives are the ultimate Karens, never satisfied with having moved society in a terrible direction through their constant complaining. Never once do they self-reflect that maybe they’ve been wrong and all of their demands have made things materially worse rather than us not having indulged them enough.
Progressives are the worst winners I’ve ever met. They’ve won every political battle of note for the past 100+ years and are still whining in their lattes about us electing Trump, whose presidency they’ve destroyed with their incessant Karen-isms and his inherent weakness.
So is is any surprise that we’ve reached a point where the government is more worried about keeping the Karens from complaining than actually governing effectively?
In fairness, who among us wouldn’t be willing to go to some pretty extraordinary lengths to get Karen to just shut the fuck up and go bother somebody else?
Yes, you’re gonna want to read the whole thing, trust me.

I have to admit the “Karen” meme is a new one to me. It makes me feel bad for all the gals actually named Karen…
OTOH, whatever name you give them, be they female or male versions, they are all over the place screaming and demanding absolute compliance with their stupid nonsensical rules.
F ’em. I hope they all die slow horrible deaths.
