Even though we've had a hard time dealing with angry, white, female "Karens", we have now been exposed to a fair few male "Karens" now, AKA "Kens." Yes, life just got one step harder for us all.
The latest video exposure shows this one man harassing a woman after she was fussing over her one-year-old baby in a restaurant and the video is extremely uncomfortable to watch.
Keep scrolling to see what happened...
Recently, the world has been exposing more and more "Karens."
I heard the Karen’s and Kens were mad because Beyoncé used a white butler in Black Is King. https://t.co/NYjJ7t5NrX— McKenzie Pierce. (@McKenzie Pierce.)1595790514.0
While "Karens" are known for demanding the presence of a manager to complain...
You can tell how Karen a Karen is by how she reacts to a Karen meme https://t.co/j6u7y8N3Z1— Spinelli ϟ (@Spinelli ϟ)1588157381.0
But ultimately, they get stuck after a video camera is pulled out...
@RoberttheIII @TalbertSwan Oh these Karen’s and Kens are doing the most. https://t.co/dM9ZJv9bhl— SaywhatImeanwhatIsay (@SaywhatImeanwhatIsay)1595369842.0
Or in this case, they start videoing the situation themselves?
I know, I know, it makes no sense whatsoever, but this breed of human is hard to understand.The name has become associated with a certain type of middle-aged white woman who’s likely to throw a fit if she doesn’t get her own way.
This year I went with the scariest Halloween costume of them all: a Karen. “can I speak to your manager?” https://t.co/BShLaTIEth— Sierra Schultzzie (@Sierra Schultzzie)1572569247.0
Things have truly gotten out of hand with the Karen meme...

But one thing we're completely thankful about is that we know how to spot them.
There are a whole range of Karens/Kens out there...

As we become more aware of social issues in the country, we can't help but notice that Karen's are often at the center of the scandal.

Ken and Karen have had enough https://t.co/QtogVCFbEJ— Insónias em Carvão (@Insónias em Carvão)1593439804.0
I promise I'm not making this up.
They threatened to shoot people that were there in the area because they "feared for their lives" like the protestors were the ones with guns in their hands... The true definition of a Karen and Ken.But just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, new video footage has proved otherwise.

A middle-aged white male and his friend were in a restaurant when they started verbally abusing a black woman and her child as they were trying to enjoy their food.I know what you're thinking... Crying babies can be frustrating, right?
via: Instagram
But the one-year-old child was not crying as shown in the video, she was making sounds and bouncing up and down in her baby seat, but for these two men, she might as well have been screaming the place down the way they reacted over it.In the disturbing post, you can hear the child's mother defending her baby while explaining what was going on.

She posted the video onto her Instagram along with an emotional caption stating this: "Never in a million years would I have thought I would encounter this. I took my 13-year-old sister and my baby girl Mila to dinner to UMEZONO SUSHI AND GRILL in Las Vegas NV. Walking in, I see them giving us the death stare, my body had chills. It hasn’t even been 5 minutes before these two creatures started mocking my 1-year-old, harassing us, calling my 1-year-old daughter annoying. Calling me a radical left and telling me to keep her quiet or else!"She continued:
via: Instagram
"At this point, I’m shaking terribly, I did not know what to do or say. My intuition told me if I did anything out of my character that they were going to cause us some harm, so I pulled out my camera and started recording. But right before I started recording, the creature in the white shirt said some derogatory, disgusting, racist comments I do not wish to repeat at this point. God knows what else they were saying to the chefs that were in front of them."And she ended the post with this:
via: Instagram
"I am so heartbroken for myself, my little sister but more importantly for my innocent, sweet baby girl Mila. This is the world we live in!!! This is America. I am so sorry Mila, so lost for words."The internet was not happy with these two men either.
As the videos show, you can see them get more and more riled as the black woman continued recording. What is with Kens getting irritated when they see a camera?And things get worse as people listen to the videos more clearly...
