Follow DemLabs on our NEW social media! The Dehumanization of Renee Good: How Republican mockery strips women of their power “Fucking bitch” In the days after her death, Republicans described “Good as a “deranged leftist,” a “deranged lunatic,” a “violent, radical person,” and—again and again—a “domestic terrorist.” She was further characterized as “very disorderly,” a “victim of left-wing ideology,” a “violent rioter,” a “professional agitator,” and even a “left-wing terrorist” or “trained terrorist.” — Open Letters by Mersault Across these labels ran a single insistence: that these women were not responding to reality, but were confused, brainwashed, overly emotional, mentally unwell—anything but credible witnesses to state murder. This process has a name: monstering. Monstering is the systematic transformation of a person into something illegible as human—unstable, hysterical, dangerous, ridiculous—so that what is done to them no longer registers as violence, only as necessity. Credibility is stripped away first, dignity second, safety last. By the time force arrives, the target has already been made unreal. This tactic is not new. It has a long and well-worn history in American political life, surfacing whenever women stop performing deference and begin functioning as witnesses—when they name what they see instead of absorbing what they’re told. Read the full article in Open Letters by Mersault, Patrice teaches through recognition rather than explanation, lending empathy and human weight to what analysis too often flattens or leaves abstract.
