Homelander Complex

A behavioral pattern where a person consistently causes harm but refuses accountability, instead blaming others, denying their actions, and failing to understand why they face consequences. Often accompanied by a victim mentality and inflated self-righteousness.
John: “Why is everyone mad at me?”
Homer: “Because you messed everything up.”
John: “No, they’re just against me. They made me do this! What was I supposed to do? Like, I don’t get it—why is this on me?”
Homer: “You wrecked their project, yelled at everyone, and pushed people out just because you didn’t like being corrected.”
John: “That's not my fault!”
Homer: “Yikes... that's a Homelander Complex.”
