The use of the name Karen as a mean pejorative is SEXIST - because it refers in an ugly and derisive way to females.
The use of the name Karen causes real pain and real problems for real life Karen's. By using the name this way the OP has perpetuated the real life harassment of nice women named Karen.
Use the word B#*ch or "overly entitled" or "mean" or "rude" but STOP using a real name that hurts real people through no fault of their own but the fault of people using the name the way the OP does.

I thought Karens were just women who lost their attractiveness.
A mirror of societies attitude towards them as they lose power.
A deluge of complex words and complaints to cause them to feel "greater" than the people who no longer give her any of the princess's deserved attention.

No it isn't, and no it doesn't. Stop talking for the rest of us already, it's annoying & belittling to assume we need some damned decorum warrior figure to do the talking collectively 24/7. Assuming you're a woman, you're just stepping on my neck to feel in control of someone else. THANKS. If you're a dude, grow a pair already and stop it.

I'll tell my Grandma Karen that one more person wants her to suffer because of the name she was born with.

If you are ok with using a real person's name and causing real people to be spit on and treated badly because of the name they were born with, their gender and their skin color - and want to support this - well I guess that is your right.
I'll tell my Grandma Karen that one more person wants her to suffer because of the name she was born with. That's life these days and she should suck it up when a lovely person like her is treated badly because people on ATS told her to grow a pair and suck it up, she deserves it being born white a female and given the name Karen - according to people on ATS who say so.
