Appropriating Karen
Aw, now the Trumpies are ruining a perfectly good misogynist nickname by appropriating it from all those right-on lefty dudes. No fair!
It’s SO KAREN to tell Twitter to do something just because the president of the United States called some guy a murderer. Who does she think she is??
Don Junior is using it??? Aw, no, that’s got to ruin it.
You are lost in a maze of twisty little memes, all different.
Following this stuff is like Talmudic scholarship: commentary on commentary on commentary. I basically can’t keep track of it anymore.
True enough. It’s utterly absurd and trivial…but on the other hand it played a large role in Trump’s election and will play a large role either way in the next one. It also plays a large role in disseminating and entrenching the ideology of “gender identity,” and also in talking back to it. I apologize for the many levels of meta.
It’s telling isn’t it? I mean, I know what a “Karen” is supposed to be, but if it wasn’t just a new way to scapegoat the 35-50ish female demo who apparently no longer have any worth to society they’d have used “Kim Davis”.
May be a sign of how jaded this year is making me or maybe I was this jaded all along but, at this point, I will roll about on the floor laughing if the right wing starts “OK Karen” every time Stacey Abrams says something should she become the VP pick. The edgelords will no doubt claim they are doing it in the cause of racial equality or something because why should only the “irritating” women of one race be karened? They will claim women of all races deserve to be treated with equal contempt.
I was so jaded before Trump, I’m not sure where I could go, but I am more jaded now…what would be the most appropriate gem for that? I may have to look it up.
#5 iknklast Maybe jet black obsidian that can be chipped into a dangerously sharp tool? Make it a magic bit of shaped obsidian that can force people to see the reality?
Or maybe that mad king guy in game of thrones had the right idea……….you know, the guy screaming “burn them all” endlessly?
Wonder what will happen if Trump loses the election but says he won’t abide by results and refuses to leave White House in January? What a time to be alive when we get branded bigots for knowing men are not women and may see Civil War II happen.
