I just got back into talk radio and the news after being out of the loop for 5 weeks and have heard people being called "Karens" several times. Where did this new term come from? Who qualifies as a "Karen"??

Karen
Slang
Karen, the given name which has Danish origins, is also used as an American slang term, meme, or pejorative to describe a woman perceived to be overly assertive, domineering, or demanding. It draws from stereotypes of white, middle-aged women. It is also used to refer unflatteringly to women with short haircuts.
EDIT: This is literally what comes up when you google "Karen" now.Comment

Virtually anyone posting on the Nextdoor app is a Karen. Any man bitching about someone that he saw "not wearing a mask" is a Karen. Every single member of the mainstream media is a Karen.Comment

Been pretty common term for years, but it's gotten big lately because of how many people want to control other people's life.
Karen watches kids from her front window just in case they step on her lawn, with Facebook always open ready to complain about how the kids stepped on her lawn.
Karen posts PSA's on forums and Facebook routinely for things no one cares about.
Karen has anxiety, and you need to know it.Comment

Wow this is all new to me. Sadly it appears that I know quite a few Karens then. Especially on the Nextdoor App...guess I will start calling them Karens instead of the word I have been using.Comment
