Had someone the other day accuse me of being gay, thinking that would get my goat. Besides laughing off the homophobia, I then pointed out that my accuser was the one who had bookmarked the gay section of P0rnh#b. (Sauce for the goose -- reichwhiner accusations are invariably confessions.)
Interesting how that works, isn't? I have a family member who's virulently anti-LGBTQ. I'm fairly convinced that they're gay and terrified to admit it to themself. I could care less, but they're an Evangelical Christian...and I'd agree that every accusation is indeed a confession. 🤷🏻♂️
"Projection" is a commonly used term in this context. I'm not sure what the technical constraints on the meaning of the term might be here (or if there are any of importance.) I believe that, in any ordinary conversation at least, "projection" would be perfectly clear and legitimate.

The judges have consulted and have concluded that for our purposes either is acceptable. 🤗
