Yes, poor you. You can’t yell and demand your way anymore (I mean you can, just hope you aren’t being recorded).

DP - but yeah, you can't shame me into not speaking out about sexism and against stereotypes of women as complainers. If that makes me a Karen, so be it. I think that's better than the alternative - someone who stereotypes women and perpetuates inequalities of the sexes.

You were never going to be silenced or shamed. Don’t pretend you care what people think of you or like you aren’t the loudest person in every situation. Do you. Newsflash: No One Cares (just don’t get filmed yelling at people).

Absolute BS, you liar. Just look at what happened to OP: she doesn't want to enter a store because of COVID but she feels she can't say anything. And you guys dump all over her for being a Karen anyway.

Newsflash: you hate women and it's obvious.

I’m a woman you idiot. Most people posting on this thread are women. You clearly hate anyone who doesn’t think like you. And you obviously hate differing opinions. Go ahead, keep screaming that everyone hates women bc they don’t agree with you. Keep showing why Karen is extremely popular and why it isn’t going away anytime soon.

Do you think just because you're a woman, you can't hate women? Allow me to introduce you to my MIL. Many, many women I know basically hate women. I see it as hating themselves--in the case of my MIL it's because her own mother disliked her--she is a very unlikable person) and projecting that on to all other women. Is this your problem, maybe?

Oh I most definitely hate woman who spit and cough on people in public or who scream racial insults or who try to get black men locked up. Is that your problem? That you side with those women, maybe?

DP. Another case in point is my aunt. It's lucky for her kids that all three were boys, because she really dislikes women.

I can see my aunt posting on this thread about how women shouldn't speak up at all. If they do, they're basically no different from the video shriekers. My aunt isn't great with differentiating among women, between those who are out of line and those who are reasonable, because she hates them all. Is this pp's problem, maybe?

I mean if you can’t see the difference between the woman in the videos posted on the other thread and someone speaking up bc their order was wrong then, welp.

OK, you're e a conservative Karen, because you dared express your opinion in a shrill and brutal manner. You way exceeded OP's level of Karen-ness.

Happy?

Are you? Do you feel better? I’m not being videotaped yelling at people. I’m not demanding every person on this thread agree with me and if they don’t then they hate women. I’m not using conservative as an insult.

So let's get this straight. You're here insulting people who think "Karen" is misogynistic, calling them idiots and screamers if they don't go along with you.

Sounds like a Karen to me. And to be clear, I think the term is misogynistic. But since you think it's OK, if the shoe fits....

The videos are such red herrings, it's dishonest of you to keep using them. Newsflash: none of us is being video-taped yelling at people.

We're talking about people like OP, who can't stay safe from COVID by getting curbside delivery, yet OP doesn't actually do anything except *gasp* post about it on DCUM. And you guys are all over her with the Karen insults. The nerve! She didn't complain to anybody, but she *thought* about complaining, OMG!

When the shoe fits. You don’t get to scream at people and expect them to just nod and walk away. If you can’t handle having your ass handed back to you then don’t start an argument. if OP actually wanted to stay safe from Covid then she would stay in her house. Period.

You hate having proof thrown in your face. The videos are out there bc people hate the behavior. You can try to sweep them under the rug all you want but they are still there. You want to change the behavior then start by admitting there is a problem. There are white woman using their privilege to yell at service workers, to cough and spit on people in public, to yell racist comments when things don’t go their way.

Most of us are not doubting that the last sentence there is true. We are saying: describe it like you have there, & not with a slur that is being used to make fun of any complaining woman.

Stop with the red herrings and false accusations. We all hate those things. Amy Cooper was a jerk. You keep repeating this false stuff but we can all see through it.

You really don't want to acknowledge that Karen is used much more broadly than this, do you?

OP is one example, but an easy one because it's right here. OP wanted to get curbside delivery to stay safe from COVID. But instead of complaining--and far from screaming racial insults or spitting on people--OP *thought* about complaining. The nerve, she actually *thought* about complaining, what a Karen!

Why do you keep refusing to see how broad and toxic the use of "Karen" is?

That's EXACTLY the problem. People who use the word Karen, like pp, don't distinguish. Racists are Karens (I'd call them worse, Karen seems kind of lame in this context). And OP was called a Karen multiple times for having the nerve to even think about speaking up.

Result: anybody like OP who complains (reasonably, of course) about service is lumped in with the racists.

I think this is the problem with the stereotype - even complaining are turned into women. And, I think that’s a problem for all women.

ITA. Any woman who dares complain is a problem; many people, like pp, argue that a complaining woman is as bad as a racist.

Thank you!! And I meant to say the problem with the stereotype is that even complaining MEN are turned into women.

You want everyone to agree with you. They won’t.

You want to control the use of the word Karen. You can’t.

You want the word to go away. It won’t.

Sure, Karen. Keep using misogynist terms that are used for all women, not just for the narrow set of women you keep trying, unsuccessfully, to insist on.

Just know that we all see you for what you are.

Ah, good point! That's definitely a big sign of the problem.

Do you see yourself?! You are literally using Karen to silence the women who don’t agree with you. You are absolutely hilariously hypocritical. Oh and I’ve never called you a Karen btw.
