responsabilise 

To get someone to take active ownership of something; To get complete buy-in; To make someone feel responsible for something

Once the councilman responsabilises his staff there will be less pessimism about the success of the new project.

Upon being responsabilised, the boys quickly volunteered to take on leadership roles on the team.

Doing adult things when you're shitfaced.

"The ole Responsibiliweiser kicked in after the tequila was gone so I wrote some checks for my student loans, backed up my hard drive, then finally started replacing those missing shingles" I gurgled through a mouth full of blood to the ER doctor.

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."
