Karen

There’s a joke that women by the name of Karen follow a certain stereotype. They are often characterised by their short, sideswept hairstyle, their white clothing, their large (often dolce and Gabbana) sunglasses, their reliance on their begrudged (ex-)husband’s child support/income, though their NOT A PYRAMID SCHEME will take off any day now, their tendency to congregate with other Karens, their claim of custody over the children from one of their marriages, the children of which are always acting annoyingly but she will never intervene and only condone their disrespect and, last but certainly not least, their unrelenting desire to speak to a manager.

They also DEFINITELY drive an Audi TT, new VW Bug or a Mazda MX5.

More for 2020 Karens

Someone who demands something be done for them or for X, with little care for context or the possibility or legality of such demand, if demands are not immediately meet they call for punishment (calling for manager, cops or for cancellation or a witch hunt to those who refuse to bend their knees for the demands)

Does not have to be a white woman, just someone who in bodies the Karen spirit
Example 1 (these examples will be more artist centered since they are real)

Artist makes a piece - a drawing of a Karen drawn in a creepy and ugly way to make fun of them
Karen - omg this is so insensitive why are you making fan art of a karen, your taking away attention form potential BLM and black protests by drawing this you should delete it.
Artist takes it down

Example 2
Chinese artist - draws a cute black girl with bleached hair wearing tennis wear and with red lipstick
Karen - OMG you cant draw black girls like this that so racist and insensitive for doing like so you being Chinese isn't a good enough excuse

Chinese artist - bends the knee and deletes it
