Karenavirus

There are two pandemics raging through our society. The first, the coronavirus, is due to Donald Trump’s inaction characterized by his delay, deceit, and dysfunction. The second, the Karenavirus, is directly related to Trump’s character, specifically his bigotry, racism, and divisiveness. Literally a day does not go by when another Karen (or Ken -- or is a male Karen known as Chad or Gary?) is caught on Twitter harassing non-white Americans or others for simply walking down a street, working at a Walmart, buying a soda, or any other of a whole host of everyday activities.

Hmm...turns out that city officials in San Francisco have introduced the "CAREN Act" to outlaw racially motivated 911 calls (see below).

The ever increasing Klan of Karens prompted us to post Emmett Lee Dickinson's poem "When we have seen a 'Karen'" below on the left. Dickinson's poem inspired third cousin Emily to pen her poem "When we have ceased to care," below on the right.

By Emmett Lee Dickinson:
 
When we have seen a “Karen”
Her Rift is given
For which she gives her Breath
And mortgaged Honor
That’s so declined in worth
Her ignominy now
To look upon –

By Emily Dickinson:
 
When we have ceased to care
The Gift is given
For which we gave the Earth
And mortgaged Heaven
But so declined in worth
'Tis ignominy now
To look upon –

BTW: We would like to make a motion that KAREN stand for "Kooks Are Ruining Everything Now." Is there a second? Or do you have a better suggestion? If so, please make a motion. :-)

Hmm...maybe we should change our motion to “Klan And Racists Everywhere Now”?  What do you think?
