I want to talk to your manager... about workers' rights!
A large group of Karens is called an annoyance.
I though it was agreed it was a complaint...
I was under the impression it was called a Privilege
Nuisance is the legal term.
That reminds me, I used to think getting that haircut would make me look all cool and badass.
I really don't know what I was thinking.
ends up somehow casted in Kate Goslin biopic...
While in USA Karens are relatively yong, in post-Soviet countries they are...
A group of them called Grannys Near Entrance or Grannyguards
The younger babushkas (60-70) run flat associations (HOAs for blocks of flats) in my country. Very strict about what you can put on your door, mailbox etc.
They aren't Karen's there babushkas
They are wiser Karens. And with dementia.
But if they see you pissing in a corner, the entire street knows before you zip your pants
Also they keep your bike from being stolen
Unless you ever park it in an unapproved place. They hold grudges for very long.
We don't have them in Australia that I'm aware of, but they do sound atrocious. What happened to that land of the free?
What happened to that land of the free?
TL;DR: racism and segregation.

My HOA only has rules for weeds and not blocking sidewalks with cars. I thought I was going to hate it, but honestly it keeps things nice. In my last neighborhood so many assholes would have boats and RVs literally parked on the sidewalk.
Wait till leadership changes hands.
Not blocking sidewalks with cars? It's just illegal here.
And weeds kinda too, but only Sosnovsky Hogweed is enforced.

They're basically just groups that are supposed to help prevent one person tanking everyone's property value by letting their home go to shit.
The problem is that typically the only people who get involved in them are retired busy bodies who want to assert what little power they have. Good ones too exist, though.

We do have them in the Czech Republic but only in blocks of flats, not neighborhoods.

They’re basically stratas and body corporations in Australia, except the laws basically make them not as powerful as HOAs
Turns out the rights of private property supersede the quaint concept of "freedom".

potentially NSFW (language)
Shorted down to "Ho Ass"The word "homeowner" contains the word "meow" in it; now you can't read "homeowner" in any other way.
Thank you for this gift
I read somewhere else another suggestion for a name which was brilliant: Klanned Karenhood
I'm not in any way familiar with HOA's but... in my mind they should be filled with at least a proprotion of bored boomers.
Karen's can be boomers, but can they be male?
