I love the over the top absurdity of this. Always seem to hate it here but sure as hell won't leave.


What’s even worse than the low IQ moron that made the species comment is the fact that The NY Post felt it was a good enough comment to put in the article.

They aren’t even trying to be legitimate journalists.


And these morons act like there are wild groups of white women roaming cities trying to track down any black person they can call the Cops on.

I saw this "Ion" in place of "I don't" for the first time yesterday and it made me irrationally angry. What is wrong with people?

“Karen” — the heavily memed term for entitled white women who call the cops on black people and defy mask mandates

What the frick? Whoever wrote this article is an idiot, and doesn't understand what a Karen means. And at black people thinking this is in any way related to anything remotely "black." "Profit off of everything we do"???? Say fricking what?>

If this is the case, every black girl with weaved in white people hair should be considered racist.

Bingo.

Karen

What does the costume wearer say instead of “trick or treat” when someone answers the door? “I demand to speak to your supervisor!”…?

Karen’s wanted to enforce masks in May 2020. A few months later they were sending Bayden and Greishley to camp and going to the beach with thousands of other people. The people who support mask mandates are soy folk like The Spleen, mmmmbeer, and Lester.

Yep. And what 35 people out of a nation 330 MILLION people say on social media isn't fricking "news" or representative of the thoughts of a MAJORITY of people. Unfortunately, social media has allowed every dildo to think their opinion on something is exceedingly important and that the rest of the world actually gives a shite about it.

If you want to piss someone off on social media, just respond to their post telling them that no one really gives a shite about what they have to say. They will become unhinged with rage

I’m not on Twitter and only see things sent to me or stuff that lands here, but I can’t imagine it’s a very good representation of any group IRL. I may be wrong, but I just refuse to believe there is a significant number of black folks who go into a Halloween shop, see this Karen costume and are so offended, they “literally, can’t even.”

I just want to know what people do with all that time saved by writing that way?

It perpetuates ignorance and laziness.

Fiction can be fun



just talked to a friend whose son is in college and in the air guard trying to get a pilot training slot when he gets his degree, my friend has an airplane and his kid has a few hours flying it, I told him it would look good if he gets a rating or two by the time he graduates, which has always been good advice for people going that route, my friend said that the guard has changed their stance on this because when the time comes for his review for consideration for pilot training it could be construed as exercising his white privilege to obtain a rating, better to just get a bunch of hours of instruction with no rating

The extremists on each side is really small but the media makes them out to be this large mass.
