The second week of fall has kicked off with subway Karen. A white woman assaulted two Black men by hitting them with her iPad and then attempted to rob one of them by snatching his backpack and spilling the food he had.

The altercation was captured in a video that was posted on Reddit.

 

Karen’s victims committed the crime of standing near her on a subway train. Instead of sacrificing her seat and moving away, she unleashed her inner undomesticated slave owner descended instincts.

Karen hit the first man in the face with her iPad. She did not expect that her fellow subway rider turned assault victim was ready to defend himself. He responded by reciprocating the strike to the face.

The man retaliating upset her more, and she continued to hit him over the head with her iPad until he exited the train.

As his friend goes to follow him out of the subway car, Karen begins to hit him in the face and then grabs his backpack.

When he tried to retrieve the backpack from the pale-colored thief, she grabbed the bag again, spilling food that the man had stored.

Since she wanted his food so much, he opened a bottle of his soda and sprayed her in the face with it.

After that nonsense, Karen wiped her bloodied face and flicked the blood at three men sitting across from her.

According to Daily Dot, passengers who were on the train before the dustup said that she had argued with another man previously who ended up slapping her and quickly left the subway car. He was a Black man.

She then allegedly “mistook” the first victim for the same man who had exited. However, since all Black people probably look similar to most Karens, it is hard to confirm whether she was confused or rabid.

Passengers on the train must have been fed up with her shenanigans because nobody came to her defense. Her re-enactment of a 1700s slave mistress in distress backfired.

Hopefully, she learned that not all of us would just record and go on Twitter. Many of us are willing to respond with the same hands that are given.
