Karens have a history with getting pretty heated over things they simply have no business being upset about. It’s one of the many things that gives them the title “Karen,” but this time, things go a bit far on a Reddit video. A handicapped man was riding through some trails on his wheelchair, and a male Karen decided to voice his opinion on how people weren’t allowed to be riding electric bikes on that specific trail, regardless of the owner’s claims that he was disabled and couldn’t use his legs.
This male Karen wastes no time as a man comes across him and his wife on some bike trails. “Seriously dude, you’re not supposed to have E-bikes on this thing,” he said, approaching the man. He comes right out and says right away, “This is a handicap piece of equipment.” Though, that didn’t stop the Karen from continuing on his path. Acting as if what the man said meant nothing, he asked for him to show him “The rules saying you’re allowed to do this.”
Honestly, if I were his wife, I would have been embarrassed for him. The Karen just can’t seem to let it go. After being asked what credentials he has to be telling him these things, he only responds with “Come on buddy, you’re breaking the rules at the park,” as if it were some kind of law. After repeating that he couldn’t walk, the Karen’s wife speaks up for the first time saying “You should have lead with that,” followed my confirmation from the Karen himself, that the man did, in fact, lead with that.
The fact that these Karens didn’t face any kind of repercussions for their behavior and sticking their noses where it didn’t belong is pretty disappointing, but loads of Redditors took to the comments to make sure they voiced their opinions on how messed up this guy’s behavior was.
One commenter noted how the pair said the man “Should have led with that,” saying, “It’s frustrating when people refuse to take responsibility. Just own up and apologize instead of dodging accountability.” Another commented, “People get so caught up in their entitlement. It’s shocking how little empathy some have these days.” Another even chimes in with, “No. 1 sign of immaturity is not admitting you were wrong and apologising,” but then again, that seems to be a pattern among Karens, doesn’t it?
