How do you take pleasure in a neighbor being evicted? (hexbear.net)

I was sitting out front today, and neighbor1 came up and was excited to tell me neighbor2 got an eviction notice on her door. She was smugly happy to tell me all about it, because she hates neighbor2 because she doesn't cut her grass enough and doesn't socialize (literally, that's it).

I wasn't picking up on the energy at first and I reacted just being like "how awful, I hope she's ok." Neighbor2 is a working mom with a daughter, but neighbor1 is like "I don't know how you could fall behind on rent."

Anyways, neighbor1 eventually shifted her energy when she saw I wasn't matching it. But it's weird she even thought I might.

It's just so fucked, because it's not a rich neighborhood, and all of us have probably gotten an eviction notice before. I guess I'm just venting. Really feeling the cruelty in the world lately.

I've seen people get excited about violent neighbors getting evicted, and I can imagine its regretfully common for drug addicts too.

But just over not mowing your lawn is maximum Karen energy. Dangerous levels of Karen Particles.

Karen Particles are just Hitler Particles re-branded.
