“Highly Disrespectful”: The Brittle Supremacy of Weak Men
The President of the United States says disrespectful women should be shot.
After several days of attempted justifications for the cold-blooded murder of Renee Good, Donald Trump finally told the truth on Air Force One on Sunday night. The mother of three with a black Labrador in the back seat was executed in broad daylight on a Minneapolis street because she was “highly disrespectful.”
I’ve juxtaposed Trump’s statement with the video of Renee Good’s murder below, but here is the transcript if you choose not to watch it.
REPORTER: Do you believe that deadly force was necessary after watching all the footage…? What’s your assessment there?
TRUMP: It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement. You saw that they were harassing them, were following for days and for hours. I think frankly they’re professional agitators. I’d like to find out and we are going to find out who’s paying for it. With their brand new signs and all the different things. But these are professional agitators and law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to put up with this stuff. What that woman and what her friend and what their other friends were doing to law enforcement, not just ICE. Law enforcement is outrageous.

RENÉE GOOD: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”

JONATHAN ROSS: “Fuckin’ bitch’”
This is the exchange Trump is defending—she was killed not because Jonathan Ross “feared for his life,” and not because he was “run over,” but because “that woman and her friend were highly disrespectful.”
To Trump, “fuckin’ bitch” was not a confession. It echoed his own feelings.
This is the delusion of supremacy by weak men manifested in the most gut-wrenching way. A federal officer deliberately put himself and an innocent woman into a deadly situation and murdered her as she was trying to escape an assault. Trump not only shed no tears for the victim but reiterated Jonathan Ross’s stated misogynist rationale.
“Fuckin’ bitch” and “highly disrespectful” are two ways of saying the same thing: You did not yield to the wishes of a man in power, so you deserve what you get.
Trump’s psychopathy, Machiavellianism, narcissism and sadism are evident in his answer. The Dark Tetrad is the dominant psychology of the U.S. government, and people like Jonathan Ross, Greg Bovino, and Tom Homan are mirroring it. The aggression of ICE is escalating because escalation is the only reaction people with this pathology have to being exposed as weak and powerless by those they seek to dominate.
Renee Good’s crime was not endangering anyone’s life, she was endangering a brittle man’s supremacy over her.
It is this same deadly supremacist pathology which infects people like Elon Musk with the deep conviction that they are genetically superior. His racism and genocidal goals have been evident for years. But he has dropped all pretense and now advocates openly for a white ethnostate. The extremism he’s displaying—at the scale he’s promoting it—is truly frightening.
On Sunday, Musk quote-tweeted a neo-Nazi account with a meme that depicts Rhodesia and apartheid-era South Africa as history lessons on why white control of the government should be a rule—not just in Africa, but in the U.S.
Rhodesia was an oppressive white-controlled colony in Africa that existed until the Black population overthrew the racist government in the late 1970s—and changed its name to Zimbabwe. Rhodesia has been used by racists for decades as an example of why segregation, white supremacy, and white rule are justified.
For example, Neo-Nazi mass murderer Dylann Roof, who killed nine Black people in Charlottesville, SC church in 2015, wore two flags on his chest when he did it: Rhodesia and apartheid South Africa. And he wore the same shaved-sides haircut as Heinrich Himmler, Greg Bovino, Jonathan Ross, and Elon Musk.
There is no perceivable daylight between Dylann Roof’s ideology and Musk’s.
Roof’s manifesto could be taken almost word for word from Elon Musk’s social media posts: a deep, unassailable belief in his own genetic supremacy, and that rule by the minority through violence is not just justified but essential to the survival of humanity.
Roof left this on a website called The Last Rhodesian.
“It is far from being too late for America or Europe. I believe that even if we made up only 30 percent of the population we could take it back completely.
But by no means should we wait any longer to take drastic action. Anyone who thinks that White and black people look as different as we do on the outside, but are somehow magically the same on the inside, is delusional…
Negroes have lower Iqs, lower impulse control, and higher testosterone levels in generals. These three things alone are a recipe for violent behavior.”
The only real difference between Dylann Roof and Elon Musk is that Musk was born into wealth in South African apartheid and managed to defraud his way into becoming the richest man in the world, while Roof was born into a broken, lower-middle class family in the South.
But underneath they suffer the same disease. They are both brittle, weak men who latched on to an ideology of dominance and supremacy—to conceal their own insecurity.
This is the deviant worldview driving America, and the world, into a conflagration: the utter certainty of a few white men that their own self-hatred can be cured by proving their own dominance over others. This pathology is all too common, but unique at this scale since the rise of the Third Reich.
However, I see real signs that this misperception of the world that gives people like Roof, Musk, Trump, and Jonathan Ross the certainty that they are superior, is presenting them more problems than they expected. There has been a wave of rage over the murder of Renee Good, and a serious test of the MAGA population over whether or not they want to defend the murder of an unarmed woman in her car.
A surprising number of MAGA accounts on social media have indicated that they have reached a breaking point with Trump, and the cultish devotion to Musk from the right wing seems to have been severely curtailed as well. The sanctioning of murder and genocidal racism from the president and the richest man in the world appears to be, forgive the term, waking some people up.
We are being controlled by brittle, weak men who defrauded their way into power and are abusing their privilege to stay that way. But now that they’re murdering us in the street, and telling us they plan to bring apartheid to America, have we finally had enough?
I have.

It begins with disrespectful women should be shot. Then disrespectful men should be shot. Then all immigrants should be shot. Then all non-whites. Then all non-Christians.
Sound familiar? Nobody is immune. State governors - please rise to the occasion.
Yes, and you should add Stephen Miller to that roster of weak, brittle men who turn inside-out into our most dangerous monsters.
