I wonder if spreaders of the 'Karen' meme are happy with the violence they are inspiring. Really sickening video.

64-yr-old white female teacher in a wheelchair brutally beaten in classroom by 18-yr-old woman while another films it for TikTok. Was this a Karen lynch mob?

Unclear. The motivation for this assault appears to be a trend of destroying property and injuring school employees on TikTok. The victim appears to have been targeted based on her occupation and perhaps the ease of assault, not her race/class/gender specifically.
