    I mean at this stage you have to say this is a mental illness.

    This woman needs a doctor.

    If you have such a strong urge to be contrarian that it is making you slam your body into glass doors you need to seek professional help. I am not joking a mental health professional needs to sit down and talk with this woman and either talk her back into mental health or medical here in to sanity again.

    She is going to kill herself or someone else. She is just throwing her body against the doors with zero regard for her safety or anyone else's!

    What do you guys think?

    I think its time we forced some people into some kind of therapy. She isn't well.

    I am NOT so certain its about politics ..unless you mean white people are never told ..YOU NEED MEDICATION!

    And no i am not insulting people with mental health issues.

    But recognizing that illness can play out in a lot of ways.

    This is NOT a mentally well person. That is a woman in the middle of some kind of 'episode'.

    I think sharing such videos is akin to sharing the videos of that horrible Dara Quigley incident.

    I doubt calling her Zombie Karen is helpful either. Especially as you keep repeating how serious you are taking this and that you think she may be suicidal, your title is a little insensitive.

    I'm not really feeling that sensitive towards her to be honest.

    I don't think most people are.

    If you have issues ..its your responsibility to get help for them.

    Taking something seriously doesn't mean i have sympathy for her.

    Making an observation that is obviously unwell and needs to be sectioned if not for her than for society is reasonable.

    Is there any footage of what happens before this video starts?

    As if something could possibly put this into some kind of context where this was normal..I LIKE your optimism tho...:pac:


    Yep sure knock yourself out ...

    Maybe it's drugs. I mean the one she is not prescribed obv.

    All this because she refused to wear a mask.

    What do you guys think?


    I think whoever thought to film that in the first place is nothing more than a cnut.

    Other than that there isn’t enough context to make any sort of a determination about the woman herself. There’s plenty of context to form a determination about the people who filmed it and uploaded it and shared it on social media though.

    I think he's smart. Who would believe him? He's black the cops could come and shoot him.

    No he is not a ****. Just a person in retail who had to deal with this ****.

    I thought you said it wasn’t about politics, now you’re making it about politics?

    Do all the men in the video sound like they think this woman is any threat to them whatsoever?

    I’m commenting on what did happen, as opposed to entertaining anything about what could happen. I fast forwarded through the video because frankly it was uncomfortable to watch, and the police did turn up, and they filmed the police arresting the woman, and STILL uploaded the video, and shared it and all the rest of it.

    Never mind being “a smart business owner”, a person with any bit of cop on would have stopped that rather than goaded her and allowed it to escalate to the point that it did when they knew she wasn’t well long before that point. I think they chose to make an example of her and were fully aware of what they were doing tbh.

    Oh no i meant my observation she is a sociopathic zombie who is on drugs is not based on politics.

    I mean the rest of it is about politics.

    This is your average Trump voter. NOICE.

    I’m not condoning her behaviour, but while her behaviour is indicative of a person who is mentally unwell, the behaviour of the people inside the shop who filmed her and goaded her and recorded it and uploaded it to social media - their behaviour is far more indicative of a sociopathic mindset.

    How annoying is the lad filming it.

    You know by the commentary all he is thinking about is how many likes on TikTok/Facebook/whatever is all he is thinking about.

    As for her one......Drink makes people real stupid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,781 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    who or what is a Zombie Karen? Some tiktok thing?

    ...and?

    She was acting completely insane over Covid politics. Fcuk her, play stupid games win stupid prizes, now youre both arrested and internet famous. People need to see how utterly psychotic these people are, and all driven by politics yes.

    Went out in Anderson SC today to visit 3 locations: Best Buy had a complimentary mask and sanitizer station at the door, but there is no mandate in the state, county or municipality so they couldn’t force customers to wear them, and many did not. However they’ve changed their sales force policies such that instead of sales staff engaging the floor of customers we were told to come back to the front to request help, this helped minimize their exposure to the public, and the layout of the store lended itself to social distancing. Our chiropractors officer took a different approach, and since our last visit have upgraded to forehead temperature readings before being admitted to see the specialist, but they did not enforce a customer mask policy either. Petsmart, meanwhile, was packed with people and we left moments after entering because next to no masks or distancing was going on with the customers. It’s a pretty red region and I can only imagine what kind of Karen shenanigans would transpire if local government mandates masks. The governor has begged people to wear them, but will not set a mandate, though several more blue or purple municipalities have in the last week. I’m inclined to believe these front line workers would certainly have liked to refuse entry to those without masks, but don’t out of fear of well, zombie Karen’s and killer Karen’s. People have been killed already for refusing to entertain customers without masks. It’s insane, but you’re here complaining about it being political lol alright

    Do us both a favour Overheal and read over the thread again. It was the OP said they weren’t sure it was about politics, then suddenly it is about politics -

    I am NOT so certain its about politics ..unless you mean white people are never told ..YOU NEED MEDICATION!
    I think he's smart. Who would believe him? He's black the cops could come and shoot him.


    I didn’t complain that it was about politics, I didn’t bring politics into it in the first place. I said the people who goaded her and filmed it obviously wanted to make an example of this woman who they were aware was no threat to their safety, and they could easily have prevented her from injuring herself. They chose not to. Instead they chose to escalate the situation and still carried on filming when the police arrived to arrest the woman, and STILL they chose to upload it and share it on social media.

    It’s on that basis that I said this -

    I think whoever thought to film that in the first place is nothing more than a cnut.

    Other than that there isn’t enough context to make any sort of a determination about the woman herself. There’s plenty of context to form a determination about the people who filmed it and uploaded it and shared it on social media though.


    I’d say the same of anyone who did that, regardless of their politics or the broader social context or any of this “systemic” nonsense that you might argue justifies such behaviour towards another human being.

    I'm not really feeling that sensitive towards her to be honest.

    I don't think most people are.

    If you have issues ..its your responsibility to get help for them.

    Taking something seriously doesn't mean i have sympathy for her.

    Making an observation that is obviously unwell and needs to be sectioned if not for her than for society is reasonable.

    All of the above yet calling her "Zombie Karen"

    Yeah right.

    Making an observation is quite different than ridicule.

    Ironic how a racial, misogynist, ageist slur all rolled into one is deemed acceptable using the Black Lives Matter movement as justification.

    Let's put it into perspective, what do you think would happen if the Internet was flooded with videos of crazy black women and given a tern such as "Ashanti". People would be arrested, social media posts would be pulled down and companies would be issuing statements.

    This woman is clearly bat sh!t crazy. What's her race got to do with anything?

    America
    Therapy
    Typical Trump Voter
    Zombie Karen :pac:

    Go over to America and get your petition going OP :)

    I can understand how the guys in the shop would've recorded it in the heat of the moment, but you have no excuse. And it's obvious that you're not feeling that sensitive towards her. If you wanted the thrill of a share, couldn't you have just sent it to a friend or two?
    Not your finest hour vibes.

    I'd be happy if Zombie Karen munched on the guy in the OPs video.

    OP’s signature is back to front. Posting a video like this and then mentioning how the person in it has mental health issues approximately 12 times in the post is all drama and no fun.

    There are no mental health issues, one of the video reports states it’s a bar, and the woman is obviously drunk. This time last year that video would have been passed around a handful of mates WhatsApp groups, laughed at, and forgotten about. Now it’s used to indicate white privilege, it’s not, it’s just a drunk woman.

    Video of zombie urgently posted on boards by other zombie at 3.22am.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 660 ✭✭✭Tasfasdf


    Why are the usual looney left posters bringing this reddit crap to boards and then somehow within a few posts "typical Trump voter" yet your an Irish person living I'm Ireland, posting on a irish site, posing American ****e and bring American politics into it.

    Same people couldn't tell you the minister for health but know all the American politicians.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭begbysback


    Maybe it's drugs. I mean the one she is not prescribed obv.

    All this because she refused to wear a mask.

    Nothing to do with stores or masks, it’s a bar, and nobody inside appears to have a mask on either, the woman is obviously drunk.

    It pretty amazing what the mind can see before itself when given a context.

    The woman is obviously unwell and mentally unstable. That is not normal aggression.
    There are plenty of incidents of people been dicks about masks, that is not one of them.

    I would consider myself liberal and largely left leaning but that video should be left in the gutter of the internet.

    It serves no purpose other than making fun of an unfortunate individual.

    How do you know she is a Trump voter? Because she's white?

    Maybe she's drunk or has a problem? Oh ha ha another Karen? I'm getting a bit tired of that expression.

    Make up your mind before posting in future and then maybe for good measure, look up catch 22

    It was never about that though. It was a silly, I'll thought out, poorly judged and hypocritical post the OP put up in the early hours of the morning.

    One minute saying that the person in the video should be sectioned, assuming she is suicidal and is a risk to herself, and then in the next breath saying that she is a sociopathic zombie who he has not "sensitive" about them and doesn't feel sorry for them.

    The whole ****show of a thread is really the OP thinking they would get a plethora of likes but has come across as a meanspirited and hypocritical nasty piece of work based on their posts.

    It's nasty, mean and harks back to Dara Quigley as I said previously.
