The technique is called "accusation in a mirror". By accusing the enemy of doing what you are doing, when they call out what you are doing, they look like they are just weakly repeating your own accusations because they don't have any truth. And the anger that should be directed against you (because of your practices) gets directed at the enemy.

Well implemented by the current US administration. Every accusation is a confession

The US distilled this from the Russian model.

There's no way anyone could have made a model so good, it must have been distilled from the future.

Thank you for this, I've noticed this often in politics and didn't know it has a name. Some politicians do this so often, that any accusation to me reads a confession instead.

It's usually called self projecting in more common terms I think.
