Yeah any race can be a Karen, so its not specifically towards white women. I do think it's unfortunate though for everyone named Karen. They must hate it lmao

I'm not making a racist statement when I use the name Karen to describe something. 
That's a name based on behavior. It isn't based on race. A person makes a choice to be a Karen. They don't make a choice to be born to a race. 
There is zero racist about the term Karen. There are lots of comments on behavior. >

It doesn't bother me.  I'm saying it as a matter of fact.

Be the defender of rude entitled women.

Are you the defender of violent black men when you raise an eyebrow when I talk about some thug attacking a random Asian person?
Or is it different?
Because fuck white people? >

Is there any way that I can tell you that Karen is a racist slur without you telling me that I'm upset?
It's an academic fact.  Dispassionate as 2+2=4 >


If you want to really claim that Karen is a racial slur on par with the n word or spic

When you resort to straw man arguments, you have to know, at least on some level, that you're wrong.
Let me break it down etymologically for you.
Racial: of, relating to, or based on a race 
Slur: an insulting or disparaging remark or innuendo 
Racial Slur: An insulting or disparaging remark or innuendo of, relating to, or based on a race.
Karen is exclusively about white women.  It is a bad word you call white women.  Karen is a racial slur. >


on par with spic or the n word

I literally just called this a straw man argument.  You're projecting this part.  If we unpack this a little, you acknowledge that there are degrees of severity of a racial slur in that you keep saying spic but you refuse to say "the N word".  When you're comparing the badness of two words and you won't even say one of them, that's the worse word.
Great, so we agree that the severity of racial slurs cover a whole spectrum of severity.

So own that comparrison. Please tell me how spic, the N word and Karen are comparrible words.

Spic is a bad word you call someone that is race specific.
The N word is a bad word you call someone that is race specific.
Karen is a bad word you call someone that is race specific.

and not race.

Karen is a bad word you call someone that is race specific.
