14. I guess you've never heard the term "Karen".

In my community, we talk about "Karens" because we are afraid of them. They are no laughing matter. Is that anti-female? I guess you could say that. I call it pragmatic.

Ever since Emmett Till, we have seen white women LIE, and call on white men to harm us and kill us. You think that's racist? You think that's anti-female.

OK, I guess you'll shoot me. BTW, I'm a woman. I watched on TV in 2016 as pro-Trump white women wore shirts that said "Grab My Pussy". I remember seeing a white woman who wore a shirt that said "Yes, I'm Racist". I remember that both a man and a woman were standing in front of their house with guns when there were Black Lives Matter protesters. I remember that there were white women in the Christmas picture with loaded guns in front of a Christmas tree. And we don't need to speak of Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert, but in fact, there are 17 GOP women in the House.

But you call me racist and anti-female.

Yes, come shoot me. I cannot take up arms. I am bipolar. But to say the thought has crossed my mind is an understatement. And while I would prioritize shooting a Kyle Rittenhouse over a Karen, shooting a Karen would not bother me.
