The Slang dictionary, however, spells it out like this...
Karen is a mocking slang term for an entitled, obnoxious, middle-aged white woman. Especially as featured in memes, Karen is generally stereotyped as having a blonde bob haircut, asking to speak to retail and restaurant managers to voice complaints or make demands, and being a nagging, often divorced mother from Generation X.
A derogatory term against a certain person, who by definition must be white.
Sounds racist...

For 1 not all illegals are from Mexico. There are many "Mexicans" that have long lineage here in the USA.
But to each their own, I honestly thought "Karen" was a nicer name then I wouldve called her.

Also its funny, you get butthurt by a woman being called Karen but the woman in the video refers to the woman as an "illegal" and tells her to go back to "Mexico."

I usually call drug dealers and rapists rapists. Am I not supposed to call a rapist a rapist and a drug dealer a drug dealer?
I'm not condoning what the woman did. I'm also not in favor of calling her "Karen" because she's a middle-aged white woman. How does racism beat racism? Haha. Wild logic there.
Well and that's fine. Calling her a ***** or a **** or whatever is understandable. Karen is crossing the racial line which I thought this video is said to oppose.

But I just find it funny how out of the video you choose to emphasize on her being called "Karen." TMZ made that video and you are right, calling her Karen doesnt do nothing to help racism BUT that doesnt take away from what the lady did or said. Hell it wouldnt have made the news if she didnt get racial.
