As “Mrs. America” shows, the white female privilege displayed by Lana Del Rey and Alison Roman in recent spats is larger, and older, than either of them.
Outburst after outburst, the clips have amassed millions of views and triggered a heated debate around the meaning and intention behind the meme. Indeed, a controversy recently erupted over the national obsession with Karen’s eruptions. Several progressives, critics and feminists argue that the internet’s female archetype of white privilege is in itself sexist, part of an age-old effort to shame women who speak out. Why does the guy standing next to Karen usually get a pass?.
The resurgence of white supremacy as an accepted political ideology — from President Trump’s continuous effort to normalize and leverage bigotry to Fox News personalities painting diversity as the enemy — has no doubt emboldened Karen. The most popular memes, after all, hold some semblance of entertainment value, even when they are rooted in hate.Enter Karen: seemingly harmless enough to laugh at yet hateful enough to skewer. A mascot, of sorts, who bridges the gap between the violent truth of white nationalism and the satisfying reality that she often lacks power to keep people of color “in their place” and it’s freaking her the hell out.

LorraineAli ‘Karen‘ is the easiest target. S’lap Joe and Donald.
LorraineAli It's the natural evolution of white women who used to make assault/rape claims to get black people lynched back in the day (after getting caught boning). They've always been a core driving force of racism while pretending they are helpless/powerless (and therefore blameless).
And it’s getting old
LorraineAli Odd that the alleged victim in the matter isn't cooperating with prosecution
LorraineAli Karen in New York. Which looks like hot garbage now. 🗑🙃
LorraineAli Nope. Gotta call out EVERY.SINGLE.UNAWARE.BITCH.EVERY.TIME. THAT'S how this shit starts to hit home.
LorraineAli While we openly make fun of 'Karens'- middle aged white females - how is this different than the racists stereotypes of Aunt Jemima or Uncle Ben's? Why is it okay now to target gender and race?
