eg;
"Ronny is in an debate and resorts to a 'straw man' fallacy. His opponent points out his use of the straw man and wins the debate. In a later debate, Ronny, having lost the previous debate after his opponent accused him of using a 'straw man' fallacy, decides that he too will simply accuse his opponent of using a 'straw man' tactic and thereby win.
But since his opponent did not use a straw man tactic, Ronny still loses. Ronny has engaged in 'Vacant Mirroring'."
"Her political opponent's Vacant Mirroring of her speech and rhetoric proved compelling to the voters."
"The news reporter Vacantly Mirrored the rhetoric of a reporter at a rival news agency to create the false impression that his reporting was just as legitimate as his rival's."

The observation, activated by self-awareness, in which an individual recognizes their past, current or desired personality traits, characteristics, and/or behaviors in others, which is often used for the purpose of self-evaluation and improvement.
So you’re on your self-growth journey and realize—it’s not the universe sending you the same bum-ass, dusty goofies. It’s your reflection, your goofy traits showing up in these dusty people and you don't like what you see. That’s the Sentient Mirror Phenomenon.
