there seems to be spike on asian discriminations for sure

1. Should be sentenced to community service.

Picking up litter in Chinatown.

3. Naw, her presence would add to the litter...

[PoliticAverse]

2. Maybe a spike in incidents or maybe just a spike in people taking them seriously. n/t

[ProfessorGAC]

4. Or Both

But, clearly they're being taken seriously now. I don't how much more seriously, but it sure seems to be getting attention from law enforcement more than before.

5. who the heck to you think YOU are lady?

6. I am so bloody tired

of these goddam Qarens! (sorry, I don't know what else to call them since the word "b*tch" has been banned and anyway it's taken on a whole other connotation, not necessarily a bad one)

11. not a typical Karen, unfortunately

[Jilly_in_VA]

12. Did you know

that Whoopi Goldberg's real name is Karen Johnson? Yes, there are also Black Karens.

[Celerity]

13. the name Karen is meaningless if it is just your real name

'Karen' the meme means white privileged racist women acting out on PoC in most, if not all, cases

7. Dunno why she wasn't just charged with assault

8. It's very sad to see this result of former guy's very successful attempt to normalize

hate and violence. We have to take him and his cult down.

9. K&R
