Thought to emerge from Black social media, a ‘karen’ is a pop-culture memetic device for a person, typically but not exclusively white, middle-class, and initially a woman, who demands absurd remedies or makes vexatious complaints about real or perceived inconveniences, however minor or biased, and sometimes actively racist.
I think it’s pretty easy to convince a vulnerable, dependant person that his or her life is no longer worth living, is no longer worth the trouble and expense. Well, you wouldn’t want to be a burden, now would you?
The brutal economics of neo-liberalism, with the faux-empathy of ‘karenism,’ means that many elderly or disabled will now be put to death, under the smiling face of a machinery of death that just sees them as surplus persons. And this is Canada?! Is this really Canada?
