Itβs a tale as old as time: a white woman believes they are being slightly inconvenienced by a Black person then immediately shows off how racist they really are.
The latest example of this took place in Kirkwood, Missouri, where a white woman was reported to have gotten herself kicked out of a post office after acting a damn foolβand her ire was directed toward a Black female employee.

The video footage of the incident starts with the Karen telling the postal worker to βget the hell away from meβ even though the employee is recording the ridiculous antics from a distance. Then she starts walking closer to the Black woman and records her as she exclaims βI could do the same thing, lady!β
The employee remains silent and lets the Karen work herself up because as weβve seen over and over again, it really doesnβt take much. βI send it to Trump,β she remarks. βMaybe he could do something, and then Obama could sue him.β
Of course, the harassment doesnβt stop there; Karen makes sure to throw in extra racism for good measure. βEqual my ass,β she snidely comments as she walks away from the worker. βYouβre not equal!β She then makes it all the way to the driverβs seat of her vehicle and says βGoddamn f**king step on white people.β
Just when it appears that Karen was through, she again approaches the employee and says βI tell ya, Iβve had it. Goddamn, you have ruined my life. I sit here. All I want is my mail. My mail!β The post office worker responds: βDonβt come in here maβam. And please step off of our lot.β
The Karen then says she hopes the employee loses her job before asking her where she gets her hair done (weβre just as confused as you are about that one). She finally leaves and the worker, known as @j5scar on Instagram, posted about the infuriating exchange.
βLuckily for her, I was on my job and words donβt hurt me ESPECIALLY coming from a #karen,β she wrote. This wonβt be the last time a Karen goes on a racist rampage, so white women if you see something say somethingβyour kinfolk are infamous for this type of behavior.
