“Crossed The Line”: ‘Texas Karen’s’ Racist Meltdown Over Hispanic Delivery Driver Goes Viral

A video of a “Texas Karen” having a meltdown over a Hispanic delivery driver’s inability to speak fluent English has gone viral on various social media platforms.

The racially-charged scene, recorded by the Latino, has drummed up controversy with some actually stating that the woman was well within her rights.

Others claiming to be from the country’s political right have dissociated themselves from the debacle, claiming she gave them a bad name.

Highlights

  • A viral video shows a Texas woman berating a Hispanic delivery driver for not speaking fluent English.
  • A woman dubbed “Texas Karen” filmed the driver, repeating disjointed lines of “you know what.”
  • She accused the driver of being “illegal” and “taking jobs.”

The post has also drawn an apology from a person proclaiming to be the acid-mouthed agitator’s daughter. She explained that the woman’s performance was precisely why she no longer spoke to her.

In the video, the Texas “Karen” struggled with her words, speaking in half-sentences and punctuating nearly every unfinished line with “you know what.”

“Because you’re an illegal
 You know what,” followed by “you don’t live in Flower Mound (a Denton County suburb in Dallas) and you’re door dashing 
 you know what. Why are you entitled to be here with an illegal car?”

“Go ahead,” she said to the Hispanic behind the wheel, expecting an answer, and then raised her phone as if to film.

The unknown woman then told the Latino driver to speak English and received the question: “But why.”

“But why,” the wildly-gesticulating woman mimicked her Hispanic prey, then returned to her halting “you know what” monologue, telling the foreign national that she ought to speak her language “back in Mexico.”

The Hispanic woman can be heard laughing at this inarticulate display of bigotry, which seemed to set her challenger off on another disjointed tirade in which she accused the driver of “taking away jobs.”

“Texas Karen” then made a show of taking photos of the Doordash freelancer’s vehicle and, on two occasions, shoved her phone in the driver’s face to emphasize the fact that she was filming her.

Before the video ended, the woman could be seen asking for the video poster’s driver’s license.

The irate Karen could again be heard responding with “You know what
”

The woman’s tirade is drawing empathy from right-wingers

According to the Daily Mailthe confrontation was first posted on TikTok, where it amassed a torrent of views.

It has since been reposted by the rightwing Colin Rugg on X, where it drew reactions like

“While I don’t agree with her method, I kind of understand the rage,” and “Give this woman a break. She’s probably had many encounters leading up to this point.”

“ The delivery guy is more Texan than your attitude will ever be.”
