Was that a thread or does the lack of a full stop at the anticlimactic end of this story make it fucking hilarious

Well he’s deleted it now so there may have been more to come but yes, as it stands that was the whole story

That was the whole story

I’ve not seen Soul so don’t really know the context here, but is this another ‘black people have made me, a white woman, feel uncomfortable’ take?

I haven’t seen the film either but given that it’s been written and directed by men I feel that there might be a reasonable point here. That point has been buried by a thorough misunderstanding of what the term Karen usually means coupled with an utterly predictable “actually the real victim in all of this is me” energy. In other words it’s vintage Freeman.

Diarrhoea scene is clearly the best part of Bridesmaids

She wasn’t talking about what it “usually” means though was she, she was suggesting that it’s morphed into a general term to abuse women. Not exactly an uncommon phenomenon.

It’s also a really shit insult whatever’s meant by it.

When a white man uses Karen in that way it’s problematic at the very least

It read a bit to me like “yes, I understand the meaning of Karen in the black community, but white people on twitter have changed the meaning so the black community should stop using it now”, however I don’t know enough about the film, the makers of the film or the scene in question so I could be way off.

Pixar films being the closest things to modern religious texts is an interesting take though
