Any examples? I mostly remember the term being applied to the Greta Thunbergs of the day.

If your idea of the "Greta Thunberg" is someone who walks into a restaurant and starts to Karen about them serving onions (on behalf of those allergic to onions. They weren't allergic themselves), then, uh... Sure.

I have honestly never heard the term SJW applied to a Karen.

Then consider yourself fortunate. Most SJWs go out of their way for these sorts of things for some sort of perceived status. Kinda like an "ethically sourced" label on a product, but as a social thing.
