Blind Blame (otherwise known as Blindfolded Blame) is when someone accuses something or someone else of something that is actually the fault of either the Blind Blamer's own short-comings, or a lack of understanding the other side's perspective/reasoning. The lack of both self-reflection and seeing other perspectives makes it a form of Miserablism, and is most done by students and some political activists.
Examples of Blind Blame include:
• Students (who dont pay attention or study any good) blaming teachers or the education system for their bad grades, without thinking about 1: if they maybe didnt study well, didnt pay attention or just never bothered asking questions, or 2: the reasons the teacher has for giving them that grade, and the reasons the education system has for working the way it does.
• Political activists (who are bad with money and lack good work ethics) blaming capitalism for why they're poor and calling for communism, despite not taking into account 1: their own financial decisions and how their resumé looks in current job market, or 2: why communism usually leads to even more poverty and how capitalism, while not perfect, has more opportunities for monetary success
Note: remember that these examples are not saying that blaming teachers or politicians is always Blind Blame. There's a reason I specified "who dont pay attention" and "who lack good work ethics" in these subjects. Its just those subjects with these traits that I am reffering to
