Racist Karen screams at woman exercising in park: 'This is not your home! We do not want you here!'

And people in power will stop pandering to her when they realise that she’s wrong and humoring her creates problems for them. She may be unworthy of your hatred, but she is worthy of your scorn and a good old fashioned public shaming.

Systemic racism cannot exist without the enabling attitudes and perpetual facilitation of the people who benefit from it.

Middle class white women are society, The unpaid volunteers. They’re the h.o.a. and the neighborhood watch and the council planning board and the volunteer gatekeepers of whatever charity handouts exist in the neighborhood. They decide who gets grants and scholarships. They’re the ones who go door to door for churches and petitions and voter drives. You can’t address systemic problems without addressing the foot soldiers who make the system run.

Possibly a companion topic to “good (encouraging) stuff”, perhaps titled “Non-Karen Moments”. :slightly_smiling_face:

On the plus side, it was hilarious when her grasping for reasons to be mad turned to, “WHO WEARS BLACK IN CALIFORNIA SUN??!!??”

You should have told her to get stuffed. I live in Vancouver and the only beef I have with people walking dogs off leash is that some of them don’t keep a close enough eye out for the dog’s safety (bikes and cars). Still negotiating with my wife about getting another dog…

I dunno about you, but I’m capable of being upset about more than one thing at a time. And something like this hardly takes up much of anyone’s time.

I’m guessing they’ve already booted her ages ago, assuming that was ever her thing in the first place. She’s probably the old lady who sits in the park alone, staring daggers at anyone who dare impinge on “her” space.

What am I saying “probably”? We’ve seen the video.

Nope. Then they’ll piss and moan about how everybody’s so politically correct nowadays, not like it used to be, blah blah blah.

Not to pile it on, but you seem to have plenty of time to describe that and why it’s not worth your time.
But I have time, plenty of us have time. Trump has made these people feel safe(er) expressing their racist tendencies. I totally have time to remind them that they are wrong.

A troublesome percentage of the public side with, support, create (in racist upbringing), and empower racist cops. That “Karen” is part of that public… which makes her (and those like her) a huge problem.

Yeah, I’m going to carry on saying what the fuck I want because so far my opinion counts and Black Lives Matter even though I’m white as fuck and so is my town.

I always thought Cash should have sung Morrissey’s “Unloveable” when he was alive

( the one that goes “I wear black on the outside because black is how I feel on the inside” )

Now I think Cash should have sung it instead of Morrissey, who has sadly turned into a Karen himself

I grew up there (Yo to my fellow hapa asians from Torrance), and this has always been a problem.

Torrance was traditionally a “sleeper” community for the aerospace industry, which formerly (and still does, but in lesser proportions) employ a lot of white dudes (like my Dad). There are now tons of Asians, but that hasn’t always been the case. In my youth there, I’ve been yelled at by old white golf dudes to “go back where I came from”, which is both stupid and kind of funny as the Japanese side of my family has been in the US longer than the white side (4th vs 3rd generation).

But the problem is that these entitled racist assholes have racist kids, and often racist grandkids.

Morrissey is why people hate vegans. He’s helped no one.
