People Consider "Karen" A Slur Now?

Having worked in retail for most my adult life, let me tell you Karen energy is real and not exclusive to women.

People talking about how it's misogynistic and classism. Karen please! It's less about your gender and stature and more about you arguing over how you can't get a game console that has been sold out for the better part of a month. Yelling at me and my staff about the logistics of it being sold out and how we ruined Christmas for your kid by not making enough.

Go home Karen, sit down, take a valium, and dive into memories of when you peaked in highschool.

So, 'Karen' [b]IS [/b]a slur?

Or, you are trying to [b]make [/b]it one?

@Budwick There is a large sect of people treating it as such and petitioning to make it one.

I am not one of them. I stand in the camp of, "Go Home Karen".

Not trying to be a dick here, but isn't exclaiming "Go Home Karen", using it in the way you don't want it to be used?

@Budwick In what regard?

Well, when you say, "Go Home Karen", are you meaning 'Karen' in a positive way, or negative.

If positive, no one will understand your meaning.
If negative, you are promoting the slur.

@Budwick It's not a slur though.

I see.
So, when you say -

[quote]Go home Karen, sit down, take a valium, and dive into memories of when you peaked in highschool[/quote]

You mean that in a kind and supportive way?

bunnyXbunny · 36-40, M

@Budwick No, I don't. I mean it I a dismissive way and not in a derogatory way as is being implied by the United Front of Karens.

While I appreciate this roundabout you're doing, I'm going to opt out of this engagement.

Stay blessed and highly favoured.
