I've always said that the most interracial racism I've ever faced as a black male in NYC or elsewhere in the country has been from white leftists. Many of them talk a good game, but don't actually live that way.
She got fired from her investment job and she lost her rescue dog while at it. This incident was very silly. This Karen sure has mental problems for her to melt like that.
I think a hint about her self-identified liberalism is in the video. In the midst of being racist, she maintains the term "African American" for this black man. I've noticed that of my white friends who insist on the term African American, it's always the ones who consider themselves the most liberal/open-minded.
Clearly she thinks of herself that way and then pulls this!
I don't like her behavior but how do companies have the legal right to fire someone over things they do outside of work that happen to get caught on video? I'm naive to this, please educate me
Good... Another example of disgusting behavior caught on video. No way to excuse it either.
She is quite fortunate that she was not criminally charged for lying and for threatening a man's life. I honestly think she said without saying that she'd get the police to come and kill him. She knows how the system works...kill an unarmed black man because he is "threatening."

When people post where they work on linkedin, they are tying their employer's reputation into theirs. She harmed her employer's reputation. This is a VP. Before this, googling her name would likely bring a result showing her employer.
Now if you want to stay with your opinion, I'd be ok with it with 2 caveats: (1) you can't list employers on social media, and (2) You can't list specific employers on your resume.
It is infuriating to watch her act like that but her life is nearly ruined. She’s been fired and everybody will know who she is for now on unless she changes her name or gets plastic surgery. I hope she doesn’t have the audacity to sue.
No disrespect but she will be alright. She is white and will get chances to redeem herself (not a privilege open to Blacks typically). She might even use this to her advantage in the future.

Racism is racism but this kind is so annoying because they pretend to be oh so open and "color blind." They (not all but most) think it's okay to use slang when talking to black people as if they're relating to us. And then you have the Biden types who think they know what's best for black people and behave as if we owe them something (our votes). Like check your racist crime law.

She also had to put the dog (which is a shelter dog) back due to animal cruelty. As she's ranting, half out of her mind, you notice she's kind of choking the dog.
I had to wonder if she was doing it to get the dog upset so that maybe the dog would bite the man. TBH, the dog looked as if it was hardly able to catch its breath. She literally lifted the dog from the ground a few times by the neck.

No, not mental problems. Please don't make excuses for her. She is straight up entitled and pretty sure she has gotten away with it for a long time.
