I know secret shoppers are used by companies, but Cuban seems to be a POS fascist. Instead of condemning businesses trying to make a living, why doesn't he spend his money on food banks, that are hurting due to this lockdown that Cuban wants to last forever.

What a crappy thing to do. This guy is looking at a run in 2024. Such a good little global citizen.

"...Cuban seems to be a POS fascist."

And a snitch to boot.

This illustrates the difference between socialists and those who believe in individual liberty.

Socialists believe they can eliminate all “risk” from life. Ban firearms, provide free income, provide free food, provide free housing, provide mass transit, etc. They love the nanny state.

Supporters of individual liberty understand the “risks” and are willing to take care of themselves. They do not need the nanny state.

That’s because the “guidelines” make no sense.

A “Karen” is usually a woman but can be man who is a busybody and constantly monitors neighbors, salespeople, or other workers to make sure they comply with her rules. If they don’t, she will demand to see their supervisors and complain bitterly about their performance.

She’s an entitled gossip and troublemaker.

It’s not a compliment.

One of the better ways for Mark Cuban to have outed himself as a wolf in shepherd's clohing. He comes across as a secular version of pop media's old trope of the hypocritical "church lady."

Q: How far can a person throw Mark Cuban?
A: Further than the same person can trust him.

But, why “Karen”? Why not some other name? Where did the Karen come from?

I’d guess it’s because it a “white” sounding name and the name and stereo typical personal traits are safe to snark and make fun of.

The guy is a turd.

He has aspirations for POTUS.

Another Bloombergian idiot in the making.

I guess it’s seems generic and only applicable to people over 40 or so.

Sort of like the ‘Mildred’ of times past.
