chosen.content: A common way to blame others is by spreading or manipulating information in order to deflect attention away from yourself. For example, pointing out a single mistake while neglecting to mention your many successes and achievements, or creating conflicts with others in order to turn attention away from your failures. Another popular way to deflect blame is through victimization, where you create or exploit a situation in order to present yourself as the innocent target of someone else's actions or behavior. Lastly, projecting blame – blaming others for behavior you know you are responsible for and making it appear as if it is their fault – is another common way to avoid taking responsibility. In summary, pointing out the mistakes of others while highlighting your own accomplishments, creating or exploiting a conflict to deflect attention, and blaming someone else for behavior you are responsible for are all common tactics used to deflect blame.

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.
