My opinion on the term "Karen".

[LuckyCharms]

47. That's the way I've always viewed it...

as a class issue.

And the dire social and economic situation of my life when I was younger has made me very familiar with the type of abuse the "Karen" meme is describing.

I view racial discrimination as something more harsh, more...I don't know...more rotten, more evil, than what this "Karen" meme is describing.

By my way of thinking, "Karen" is too mild to describe racial entitlement, or racial abuse. Thinking you are better than someone else because you have more money than someone and you have a perfect life vs. thinking you are privileged and hold authority over someone because they are of a different race than you and you view them as the "other" are two entirely different things, even though class discrimination may be one component of racial discrimination. But in its entirety, racial discrimination runs far, far deeper than just perceived differences in class.
