Internet Karens Going Crazy...
Posted on 5/27/20 at 9:55 pm

On my Facebook feed about Black Lives Matter and white privilege.
I know I'm relatively new here and I don't seem to see eye to eye with most on the board regarding these most recent two events involving white people killing black people. I get a lot of downvotes because I don't think either was justified—and I think trying to justify them is kind of silly and maybe even racist—and I say so.
But I'm not all over social media telling everyone how "broken hearted" I am for our country and clutching my pearls over white privilege.
The fact that Karens on Facebook are only outraged when white people kill black people is a transparent indicator that they are acting out of...well...white privilege.
It's not about caring about what happens to black people. Black people get shot and killed every weekend in Chicago and Detroit and Atlanta and new Orleans and Los Angeles and dozens of other places around the country. Every weekend. Hell, every day.
Why aren't they outraged every day about black lives not mattering?
Why is it only when it's a white person who doesn't value black life?
I'll tell you why. It isn't about black lives to them. Not really. It's about white virtue signaling.
They aren't desperate to stop black lives from being extinguished. They are desperate to prove they are "good whites."
And in emphasizing "white privilege," they are othering and taking center-stage and making the problem about whites instead of actually worrying about blacks.
If having the luxury of turning a racial problem that results in black people being killed into a white problem is not the very definition of white privilege, I don't know what is.

Stopped reading here. Don’t know who you are and haven’t seen any other of your posts but that’s not why you’re getting downvoted dumbass. No one here said what happened in MN was justified

You’re kind of being a Karen with this post.

white people killing black people.
And herein lies the problem. You jump to an unjustified position that actions were taken in these events simply because of race.
This is why you are and will always be part of the problem.

Latarvis is the hero we need but don’t deserve right now.
Help us Latarvis. You’re our only hope.

Dear diary,

Chicago is currently in the middle of an epic killing spree (over 15 people killed this week). I don’t see any twitter hashtags for these murders. I guess these black lives don’t matter.

You are the male version of a Karen. A young millennium brainwashed pussified kid obsessed with your social profile and wanting to tell the world just how forward thinking you are. Look at me, I care and I am better than those that pretend to care. That’s you.
I don’t give two fricks if a black dude in Minnesota got killed by a cop. I don’t care is a white cop in New York got killed by a black man. I don’t give a shite at all. Just stay the frick away from me, my family and keep your hands off my money. Other than that, all you social media Karen’s and Ken’s can go frick yourselves.

People that use the term “Karens” are a special breed of retard

F what they think,I'm with you

I should point out the BLM movement doesn’t seem to care either about black on black violence. It’s a movement to hate whitey and cops.
Inner city violence can’t be fixed by white people especially when heavy policing is frowned upon. The only fix is a change of culture in the black community. They need to look inwards and reform themselves

I'm just going to drop this here. It's fact and irrefutable.

Why is it when a black person is killed by police, black ppl are outraged, protest...yet don’t care about them being killed by gangs or black on black crime...oh, and when a White person is killed by police?
Can’t be selective in your outrage to address a problem.

If a white person is killed by police, it doesn't make the national news...unless they were shooting up a school.

Our police killed a white dude a day or two ago. Not a peep.

It would be paternalism if they were males.

I got called too ignorant to respond to earlier.
Chick posted a meme about Minn protesters getting gassed and the armed white protesters that stormed the government building not. The whole white privilege thing.
I let her know the police didn't start gassing the people till they got violent destroying the police cars at the precinct. The white guys never destroyed anything. Behavior dictates behavior. I even agree the cop should hang for what he did and I understand the rioting.
I think sh just had no rebuttal. I called her a snowflake and unfriended her like a bad arse.

Correct, or no one gives a shite.
Example: 19 year old white guy, that was shot 2 times in the chest...while on his knees, in a gas station parking lot...by a black cop. That happened 3 weeks before Michael Brown and not one peep.
