Scapegoating Projection - Unwanted thoughts and feelings can be unconsciously projected onto another who becomes a scapegoat for one's own problems. This concept can be extended to projection by groups. In this case the chosen individual, or group, becomes the scapegoat for the group's problem. Political agitation in all countries is full of such projections, just as much as backyard gossip of little groups and individuals.

Carl Jung - "There must be some people who behave in the wrong way; they act as scapegoats and objects of interest for the normal ones."

Just something I think about that helps me along when others seem to be tearing me down.

thanks for the tip..

We are culturaly "imprinted" with negitive thoughts about oneself and others from birth. Many just insult others with out knowing it or being aware of it.
