[Beginning of recorded material]
Rick Rosner: Along with the rise in dickishness, has been the rise of the Karen. The Karen is the white lady who complains about bullshit, often involving black people doing virtually nothing or literally nothing. You know, black people, they park. White lady calls the cops because, for no reason. And so the rise of Karen means that it tempers legitimate anger at dickheads because you have the bad, you know, the terrible example of the Karen’s showing you, you know, that maybe you don’t need to complain about every fucking little thing. So now the end.
