Projection is an ego defense mechanism where someone denies a negative aspect of their own personality or behavior and instead accuses someone else of being that way.
An example is someone who’s guilty of something may attempt to blame others for being guilty of that thing. This is mostly an unconscious thought process, people who do it on purpose aren’t projecting

Oh, i get it, thanks! Kinda like projecting the bad things on somebody else to make yourself feel better about it. Cool!
