Argumentum Ad Responsabilitatem

A form of Miranda Bias where one shifts responsibility for an argument, claim, or situation onto the opponent, typically by demanding they take responsibility for something they didn't cause or can't control. The fallacy lies in misplacing accountability—treating the person pointing out a problem as responsible for solving it, or the person documenting harm as responsible for preventing it. "If you're so concerned, why don't you do something about it?" becomes a way of deflecting criticism without addressing it. This fallacy allows those with power to avoid accountability by shifting attention to those without power, demanding that critics solve the problems they merely identify.

Example: "When she documented the environmental damage, the company responded with 'if you care so much, why don't you clean it up?' Argumentum Ad Responsabilitatem: blaming the messenger for the message."
