Conservative commentator Lauren Chen faced a chilling threat recently, with a man warning that she would be “dealt with” for her opposition to reparations. The incident underscores the escalating tensions surrounding the debate on reparations in America.
Furthermore, conservative voices have staunchly opposed reparations, arguing that individuals should earn their income through work rather than receive reparations based on historical grievances.
Currently, Chen’s opinions are not strictly related to reparations. She also shares strong opinions regarding to transgender athletes, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry and other incidents that may be classified as a “woke” problem.
Conservatives angry at man threatening Lauren Chen

Libs of TikTok reposted the video while tagging the FBI. Following that, conservatives feel that America is already a diverse country, filled with people from all sorts of backgrounds. In these respective backgrounds, there were individuals who were systematically discriminated against, from the African American community to the Native Americans, the Irish and Italian Americans.

Sadly, X users claim that those who are “woke” will usually have the police on their side. This is despite the fact if they’re right or wrong. Others joked that regardless of the man’s pronouns, the police may still side with him no matter what.
