A video uploaded to TikTok and later shared on Reddit is stirring up a storm, capturing the chaotic moment when two women—dubbed “Boomer Karens“—aggressively confronted a group of anti-foie gras protesters outside a restaurant. The footage, which quickly sparked online debate, shows the women hurling insults, shoving the protestors, and throwing their microphones to the ground. The bizarre climax of the scene? The women, later joined by a man, taunted the protestors to “take off your masks, you cowards!”
The aggressive trio didn’t stop there. One woman was seen repeatedly pushing protestors while the other, dressed in pink, defiantly pointed fingers, challenging the activists before briefly walking away, only to return for more. Their antics culminated in a moment straight out of a surreal comedy sketch, with all three flipping off the protestors while performing a bizarre dance routine in the middle of the street.
Reddit users were quick to weigh in with hilarious comments. One user joked, “The last scene of them all dancing looks like a boner pill commercial,” while another commented, “That’s gold! Looks like something from It’s Always Sunny in Season 75.” Many were quick to criticize the physical altercations, with one user pointing out, “Putting hands on someone crosses another line.”
Despite the uproar, the protestors maintained composure, but not without enduring the insults. According to one user, “Calling them cowards while doing everything aggressive they can to incite a retaliation… classic Karen move.” Another quipped, “These old people with bones made of coral taking swings at young people is crazy. Woman, STAIRS can kill you.”
The video has continued to gain traction, with many laughing at the absurdity of the situation but also questioning the troubling behavior. One viewer perfectly summarized the internet’s reaction: “Boomers don’t like being told ‘no.’ It causes them to malfunction.”
As this viral moment circulates, it’s clear that the antics of these “Boomer Karens” will be a talking point for days to come. It’s further proof that in 2024, everything can and will be caught on camera.
