What is a Karen? Karen is a slur that is used to typify a person perceived to be entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is considered appropriate or necessary.
I had a run in with a Karen today. I went to a local med clinic just to pay a bill. This woman half my age who works there handed me a mask. She did it so casually without even thinking she may need to be polite enough to actually ask me if I want to put it on, she held it towards my face invading my personal space as if it was a given that I put it on without complaint. I refused it. She at first looked shocked, then anger flared in her eyes which I could see just above the mask she was wearing. How dare I disobey her tiny bit of authority!
Thinly disguising her temper she said, 'If you want to come into the waiting room you need to wear a mask,' holding it out in a position almost like she was ready to shove it onto my face.
I calmly replied '"I do not wear masks. The Surgeon General of the United States said they lower immunity." She looked puzzled as if this was something she never heard before. Still holding the mask in the same aggressive position, she gave an eye roll to another employee who nodded her head like a school marm scolding a child for being naughty. I stared them both down, so after a few seconds she saw I was standing my ground and, in exasperation at my disobedience, she said I should wait outside, which I did. In just about a minute the professional I needed to pay came out and took me into his office and I paid no problem. Anyone who wants my business will not get it if they insist on me wearing a mask, I do not care who they think they are.
It may not seem like a big deal to other people, but for me it was a small victory as a COVID19 Refusnik. The more like minded people who see through the mass hysteria and lies refuse to comply with these ridiculous unscientific measures and the more we reject the 'New Normal' as abnormal in our everyday lives, the better! How dare these petty obnoxious Karens treat us like peons that they can bully! We are not peons, this is a Democratic free country and we are independent citizens and we need to act like it!
Being a COVID19 Refusnik means refusing to join the Group Think which is defined by Wikipedia as thus: Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people in which the desire for harmony or conformity in the group results in an irrational or dysfunctional decision-making outcome. Cohesiveness, or the desire for cohesiveness, in a group may produce a tendency among its members to agree at all costs. This causes the group to minimize conflict and reach a consensus decision without critical evaluation.
By stating facts and statistics in a calm and rational manner, over and over again, and dispelling the myths, lies, and propaganda of the COVID19 Scamdemic, we can assert our rights and help to put a stop to the insanity thrust upon us by lying incompetent power hungry politicians and delusional 'experts'
We can start a mass movement of COVID19 Refusniks just by refusing to become intimidated by all the Karens, even in small everyday seemingly petty things. Today it is some brainwashed Karen obnoxiously bullying you to wear a mask, and tomorrow it is a full blown totalitarian society. Exaggeration? History warns us it is indeed not!
