rejected.content: One tactic people commonly use to deflect blame is to shift responsibility onto someone else. When this tactic is used, the person will look for someone else to blame - from an organization or a system to external conditions - for their actions or inactions. It can be useful to identify the patterns that often trigger this strategy, so as to be more mindful of the circumstances where it could potentially arise.
