Ridgewood NJ, readers accuse Councilperson Siobhan Winograd of being the Village “Karen” .
“Karen” is a slang term used in popular culture to describe a stereotype of a demanding, entitled, and often rude or obnoxious person, typically a middle-aged white woman. Karens are often associated with making unreasonable demands, complaining, or speaking to managers or authorities in a condescending or self-righteous manner. The term has been used to describe individuals, usually women, who exhibit behavior that is seen as entitled or overbearing in various situations, such as customer service encounters, disputes, or online interactions. It’s important to note that the term has been criticized for its potential to stereotype and generalize people unfairly, so it’s important to use such slang terms thoughtfully and avoid making assumptions about individuals based on stereotypes.
“The Council member Siobhan Winograd protested about photos taken of children in one public space (taken by a person of color), but praised photos taken of children in another (taken by a white person).”
“At the BOE level, Siobhan Winograd protested for a no vote of confidence against the only two people of color (they had only been in the seat 6months).”
“Before that, she filed a police report against a man of color who was simply speaking at a public meeting who opposed her views.”
“The Ridgewood Moms and Dads Facebook page is controlled by Siobahn Winograd and Steve Friedes who can control the narrative and oftentimes shut conversations down if it doesn’t fit their agenda. it is a private, invitation only group.”
“Spearheaded Who is One Village One Vote, taking away your right to vote on the school budget
Siobhan Crann Winograd , Robert (Bob) Fuhrman, Constance (Stacey) Loscalzo, Matthew Lindenberg, Deborah Steinbaum”
“I do agree that there is a fair amount of bigotry in this village, and it is sad that people who have eithics violations or are bullying others, get away with this nonsense and others who are hard working members of this committee trying to do the right thing are then made to look responsible for things they have nothing to do with. It is pretty clear. Also, look at all of the OVOV people = all white. Siobahn Winograd, Bob Fuhrman, Stacey Loscalzo, Matthew Lindenberg, Deborah Steinbaum,”
“Siobahn Winograd needs Matt Rogers to attend her Shade Tree Committee meetings-no sure why but that is a good use of his time”
“A current Village Council member actively participated in an on line discussion in which Boyd was tagged a a possible child predator because he took a photo of emergency responders assisting a child in distress. This same Council member also filed a police report about a meeting in which the presence of Saurabh Dani made the person “uncomfortable.” Bigotry is alive and kicking in Ridgewood.”

So true.
Hilarious
If the moniker fits, so be it.
This Bitch has to go!!!
She is really one disliked individual. Really the epitome of white priviledge. Let’s not forget that she and the other One Village crew sued Heather Mailander too. Political witch hunt.
She relishes being hated
She can be found in Jeff Nhyus ‘s office quite often!
Not a Nyhus fan but poor guy
Perpetual chaos since Kindergarten
I am so much happier since I left Ridgewood and moved to Arizona. What a horrible place the east coast is in general.
What did you sue Heather for?
Siobhan is racist. She fears anyone with melanin. And yet she will be front and center at MLK and BLM events to try and prove otherwise. I despise her.
calling her a Karen is a Racial slur
It actually isn’t. It is a meme based on characteristics related to behavior NOT skin color. 100% Karen.
Birds of feather flock together.
Her husband is apparently a bit soccer fan, so assuming this is why she is scheming to get the large sports field underway and to please the only people in the village that she seems to care about.
Do you know what I’d like to know who is running the town? Someone is definitely pulling strings from behind the scenes. We truly believe that the reason behind that quote is some of the same things has been going on for the last 10 years and it doesn’t matter who the mayor or the counselors or village manager is definitely some individual or group that has political power and village influences somehow.
