This was the latest installment in what seems like a nonstop stream of “Karen” videos. When called out about trying to make money from the encounter, Dillard said he was a comedian but that there was nothing funny about the video.

People can be heard in the background yelling at Dillard for him to give Karen a chance - and to leave. When she wants to “explain my perception” to Dillard, he simply tells, her, “I do not care.” “I’m a Black gay man and I live my life going through this every day,” Dillard said. After Dillard places his phone in his pocket to make Karen feel safer - “You’re not gonna be on Instagram” - she explains her histrionics: “But he called me a Karen!”ĭillard responded by putting things in a perspective that Karen likely had a hard time understanding.
