Reveal Your Uncool Conservative Beliefs Here

yeah the becky in the sir mixalot was brought up in a becky/karen article about original becky.

we've probably done "should non-famous people be shamed on the internet?" a dozen times in this thread alone already

the becky from baby got back isn't white

and also is fictional

defending bad white women is indeed conservative.

archetypes are reductive, no need to be such a treesh about it (sorry treesh)

xp BBQ Becky incident happened about 10 blocks from where I live ...

wait there was an actual "barbecue becky," a woman who called to complain about a black family barbecuing in a park. (charcoal grills weren't permitted in the park). her photo got out and got plastered all over memes. not sure how i feel about that.

...

I'll go check but this is wildly wrong iirc

the Karens and Beckys dodged bullets growing up

My friend Becky who was in middle school when "Baby Got Back" came out begs to differ!

uh, that song came out in 1992 ... my post was about 70s and 80s popular music ... your friend is a millenial, and most of the stereotypical Karens are Gen-X women, so ...

oh good, it took only 1 second to confirm that she most certainly is

treeship...

"barbecue becky" is at least alliterative. that one is approved.

same with donkey dick dale

maybe he thinks brunettes aren't white?

in the lyrics. unless "becky" is the addressee and not the girl they're talking about.

Oh, my, God Becky, look at her butt
It is so big, she looks like
One of those rap guys' girlfriends.
...
I mean gross, look
She's just so, black

xp to sarahell, I only meant popular culture came for the Beckys well before 2010 or w/e

i've never seen the video for that. i cannot be held responsible for music videos made before the year 2000.

xp. becky is the addressee.

jesus treesh.

i cannot be held responsible for any of these white boys allowed on the internet.

oh my god, look at that post

sorry i never did a close reading of that song before. i'll dust off my old cleanth brooks textbooks tonight to sharpen my skills.

oh my, god look, at that post

now do a girl named Suzy.

genuinely shocked this hasn't been posted prior

ogmor is correct, until fairly recently this meme was just any generic white lady name, “jeez Debbie” or whatever, which is why tracing it back to dane cook or some random on reddit is off the mark

https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/7lz4ar/what_is_this_fuck_you_karen_thing/

I don't know that looks like convincing evidence of the origin to me

That’s literally just a bunch of dudes repeating “I hate my ex” and has no connection to the “type” exemplified in the meme

The name is the same yes

The first link is what I thought was cited as the inspiration for the name Karen being chosen. But looking again it's not from the same user most point to, so never mind.

The second is someone asking about it some months after the snowball started rolling down the hill. So at least that kind of puts a timestamp on it. Always thought it was a reddit thing.

lol I know a man in his early 40s who definitely exhibits Karen-like behavior and for that, among other reasons, we’ll joke about “pulling a Brian” when doing something he’d do

nice guy to hang out with until the moment he asks something mortifying of a person in our vicinity then it’s a race to cut him off mid-sentence, though

names have been changed to protect the man-Karen

🎶but I do knowwwww man-Karen🎶

College shouldn't be free.

(I don't know if this is really a conservative opinion because I think public college tuition should be a third of what it is now and that state government support should make up most of the difference)

(It's definitely uncool though)

You’re right, free Universities are where it’s at.

i saw Ted Cruz called a Karen online because of his need to criticize the 1619 Project.

I feel like I missed something there, Andrew Sullivan was throwing a shit fit about it, but I couldn't really understand

some people think america is good but actually, it is bad

"don't call attention to the genocidal ravages of colonialism and chattel slavery! america's good"

hmm, why would a right-wing piece of shit not like writing regarding the legacy of slavery

Any argument against the 1619 Project should be met with fire.

“Karen” was a term created *specifically by Black women* to talk about white women’s interpersonal + state violence against us and our communities: calling the police on us for getting coffee, threatening to have us fired, talking down to us at work (where we’re now “essential”).

Per Luvvie Ajayi, the progression is Becky > Karen > Susan.

it's interesting that treesh identifies this as a conservative opinion bc it treats gen x liberal centrist feminism as conservative, which for rhetorical/dialectical purposes it often is, and then i saw this https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EXVlEMdVcAETEiB?format=jpg&name=900x900

tbf noone is ever mean to posh men

most men (esp. cis-het white men) are over-sensitive to criticism and need to "man up" -- if they received the same privilege push-back as white women do on the reg, they would either cry, try to cancel the internet, or else shoot a bunch of people
