Psychological projection

Projecting is a tool that can be used for multiple strategies that fit the sociopathic agenda of many narcissists:
* giving themselves an excuse to also commit bad behaviour (eg they accuse you of cheating because your ex sent a heart and now they go and sleep with 30 women because "you also cheated")
* distracting anyone from their own mistakes by making you look bad too
* causing chaos in general, which diverts attention away from them too
* making you look bad because they think they are better than you. If you are good, then it's tough for them to be like you, because they are throbbing assholes, so they need to bring down everyone first.
* because they feel caught and like a failure so they accuse you of making them fail and feel like an accomplice.AndyOrAmy · 22 min. ago | reddit
