Hey Guys :) Join me as we analyze TikTok creator Mol & "Karen" Memes. 

Mol is a LGBTQ TikTok influencer who was recently "cancelled" via unfounded sexual assault allegations via TikTok. His mannerisms and speech patterns are mocked, as well as his content highly criticized. We'll use Mol's TikTok account as a case study to analyze why people choose to hate and bully, and if the public ridicule is in this case, or any case for that matter, is deserved or not. 

 We'll also be analyzing the Karen meme, and why middle aged ;white ladies fall under this stereotype of inherent entitlement. We explore the social implications of white privilege and how it intersects in popular culture and comedy.
