One user suggested that the “Paris 2024 Olympic logo would like to speak to the manager” and took on the personality of an angry woman, probably named Karen, in a store.

While the logo has divided the internet, the goal remains to “honor French culture and creativity,” organizers said in a statement, per France 24.
For the first time, organizers explained, the logo will be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics games.
“It expresses the pride of a country which will welcome the world in 2024, to its capital city, Paris.”
