      Karen jokes are for boys that want to be openly sexist and hate women that they’re not attracted to (middle age). Then they specify she’s white so they can’t be perceived as racist.

      She may not be a Karen. The story is intentionally vague enough to simply indicate exasperation at a language barrier, and the person you replied to is the only one who noticed.

        The story is vague, but the title is not.

        I like the its-actually-not-a-karen viewpoint, but you did set a certain view on the story by giving it that title, there’s no denying that.

          Very intentionally, yes, as I was certain that it would appeal to Lemmy’s superiority complex. I wondered how long it would take for a single comment to point out the assumption, and the answer was 12 hours. No presumption of innocence here. I don’t really have a horse in this race, I just like baiting and seeing what bites.
