WATCH: 'Karens For Kamala' Say They Need To Use Their 'Privilege' To 'Make Political Change' During Harris Fundraising Call

Following Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign announcement last week, a group of 164,000 liberal white women nationwide joined a Zoom call on Thursday to discuss how to ensure the first female vice president breaks another glass ceiling to become the first female president. During the discussion, one guest speaker told the assembled women they needed to use their "privilege" to "make positive change."

The call, which broke the record for the largest Zoom call, was advertised as "White Women: Answer the Call" and featured prominent guest speakers like U.S. Women's Soccer star Megan Rapinoe, musician Pink, and actress Connie Britton. According to Fox News, white women organized the call after a similar Zoom call for black women last Sunday.

Segments of the call went viral on social media, with many online mocking one speaker, influencer Arielle Fodor, for her comments. "As white women, we need to use our privilege to make positive changes. If you find yourself talking over or speaking for BIPOC individuals or, God forbid, correcting them, just take a beat," Fodor, known on social media as Mrs. Frazell, said. "And instead, we can put our listening ears on. So, learn from and amplify the voices of those who have been historically marginalized and use the privilege you have in order to push for systemic change. As white people, we have a lot to learn and unlearn, so do check your blindshots."

The influencer's comments, which many described as "cringe," received immediate backlash, with one user writing, "Arielle Fodor, you & people like you, ARE the toxicity. Your proud white savior, the poor minority people need us, mentality is disgusting."

"Arielle Fodor is embarrassing. Arielle, YOU may be privileged, but the rest of us aren't buying the bullsh*t anymore," another user wrote. Other speakers on the call, which one guest described as "Karens For Kamala," expressed a sentiment similar to Fodor's. Shannon Watts, the founder of the anti-Second Amendment group "Moms Demand Action," said that the patriarchy has subconsciously hypnotized white women to vote Republican.

"The bad news is that a majority of White women vote for Republicans because too many of us believe, subconsciously, that it is in our best interest to use our privilege and our support systems of White supremacy and the patriarchy to benefit us," Watts said. "White women, we have 100 days to help save the world!"

While the event's speakers parroted left-wing race grievances promoted in academia, the event organizers were, according to Reason.com, able to fundraise $1.8 million from those in attendance. Clips from the events may be "cringe," but the Democrats' ability to organize the biggest Zoom call in history shouldn't be underestimated by Republicans hoping to win the White House in November.
