The Anthropology of Karens

We study foreign cultures anthropologically but examine our own only through sociology—which has become 99% leftist propaganda. This means we're experiencing history's most rapid social changes with almost no honest intellectual analysis! This episode examines "Karens"—those entitled middle-aged women demanding managers—as symbols of a much larger, civilization-destroying trend. Like my previous deep-dives into "NPCs" and "incels," this seemingly silly internet meme actually reveals profound truths about Western society's decay. 🔥 Apply to join over 400 founders and Execs in the Turpentine Network: https://hmplogxqz0y.typeform.com/to/JCkphVqj -- SPONSORS: NetSuite:  More than 41,000 businesses have already upgraded to NetSuite by Oracle, the #1 cloud financial system bringing accounting, financial management, inventory, HR, into ONE proven platform.
