Sarah Comrie should sue Bellvue Hospital into the ground

Don't Call Her Karen

Today Sarah Comrie’s life has been turned upside down. She has been doxxed and faced death threats. Bellevue placed her on leave. She had to hire a lawyer. She is widely known, as a result of a viral video in which she appeared in May, as Citi Bike Karen.

But it cannot be the case, morally or logically, that it’s impossible for a white woman to have a justifiable complaint and impermissible for her to speak up if she thinks she’s been wronged. Yet that is what the term “Karen” implies: that if you are a white woman, your relative privilege renders suspect any complaint you might have; if you try to defend yourself, you thereby prove the case against you.

Keep in mind that the only person in this incident who has been publicly identified is Sarah Comrie. The young men involved, and their families have chosen to remain anonymous. So...the only person doxxed...the only person getting death threats, the only person suffering online mob mentality, and the only one suspended from her fucking former heroic job, is nurse and physician's assitant Sarah Comrie.

Here are some samples of the online mob action spewed at Sarah Comrie...

The civil rights attorney Ben Crump, in a subsequently deleted post on Twitter, accused Comrie of attempting to steal the bike and called her behavior “unacceptable,” an example of “the type of behavior that has endangered so many Black men in the past.” The website Anti-Racism Daily accused Comrie of trying to “weaponize her tears.” The Miami Times called her “an aggressive woman.” Tariq Nasheed, a filmmaker and social media personality, called her “a suspected white supremacist.” A blog post on the website Daily Kos said she “weaponized her whiteness over a stupid bikeride.” Several news sites ran headlines calling Comrie the “Citi Bike Karen,” using a slur for a white woman the kind who, according to one story in The Times, roams stores and restaurants “spewing venom and calling the authorities to tattle, usually on people of color and often putting them in dangerous situations”.

Online mob action crap. It's too fucking bad for the assholes at The Grio that her crying didn’t satisfy their criteria for an authentic feeling. Those guys laid hands on her. Any physical contact committed without the permission of the victim is an assault. It's too bad Sarah didn’t have any pepper spray.

It's a dispute over a bike...she's supposed to be nice when these guys restricted her movement? My ass. She's supposed to be nice when these guys put their hands on her? My ass. She's supposed to be nice when these assholes say her baby is gonna be retarded? My ass. She's supposed to be nice because they're black guys? My ass.

It's a dispute over a bike rental...and she's playing white privilege? My ass. Race is being played all right, but it ain't being played by Sarah Comrie. It's being played by the assholes at The Grio and the rest of the internet mob who are doxxing and threatening Sarah Comrie's life.

Sarah Comrie wasn't a fucking Karen when she was working overtime at Bellevue saving people's asses (even saving the assholes who refused to be vaccinated) from Covid-19 all through the worst of the pandemic...and at risk to her own life. And it appears that men giving their seat on a bus or on the subway to pregnant women doesn't fly in Kips Bay.

One of the really nasty things about the internet is how much BS it spews forth. Much of that is due to people posting BS based on a toxic combination of jumping to conclusions, gullibility, personal preference, groupthink or some combination thereof.

The lack of clarity on the verifiable facts of this affair gives me nothing on which to base an opinion at this time.
