possessed by a Karen
When you take a problematic female less seriously because of institutionalized sexism, assuming she has no real power though she directly or indirectly benefits from (usualluy white) privilege. With prolonged exposure, the sheer force of empathy will erode your sense of self and you will start to rationalize Karen antics. Exacerbated by mental illness, attractiveness, vacillating from self-deprecation to self-aggrandizement, and irony poisoning.
"I know she says problematic things but her absurd takes make me lmao."
"Just be careful you don't get possessed by a Karen."
