| America is full of KARENs - thankful, as yet, most don’t pull guns on little kids.... |
They’ll have a hella of a job saying and doing any insanely stupid and insanely boorish (to make a moral point) that hasn’t already been said and done daily by endless numbers of American KARENs.
KARENs are (usually) white American women with big mouths, short fuses, an unhealthy amount of paranoia - and a cell phone speed-dialed to the closest gun-pointing cop : that is when they aren’t doing the gun pointing themselves.
Usually at little black girls, shopping at a shopping malls —- or daring to sell lemonade on public sidewalks.
Thankfully, actual physical violence remains still mostly a male activity, but as these KARENs become ever more visible, thanks largely to other people’s cell phones, its only a matter of time before we see video of when one finally snaps and goes postal, shooting up her entire suburban street.
There are Canadian KARENs - usually Canadian KARENs who watch FOX NEWS - probably always have been.
If fact, I will earnestly argue that Gabriel Wortman was a KAREN, before he became a mass killer.
He regularly beat up passing children if they dared to come too “near” to his front door at his two Dartmouth homes (a door ended at the public sidewalk : zero setback !!)
He threatened to shot rural neighbours if they stepped on his property and did burn down property of a rural neighbour because he imagined it touched “his” property.
A proper KAREN was he. So don’t just laugh at the KARENs we all know : they are potentially deadly.
Gradually, as we Canadians - a bashful race - become more comfortable videoing KARENs in full rage and posting it on social media, we will soon start to see here the same impossible-to-satirize news stories that we see daily coming out of America.
It is probably easier to tour a heavy metal band across a globe full of overcrowded stadiums today than it is to make a small living doing satire.
As long as the KARENs live, satire is dead....
