Projection is one of the most commonly misused and abused concepts in psychology, to the point psychologists themselves went astray from it and redefine it all the time to try and make it some obscure thing only them are qualified to speak about... but I digress. Psychologists are shams.
There is an expression that totally encompasses it: "they told on themselves", when someone speaks about other people, yet reveals more about themselves by doing so. Typical case of clear projection.
The dramatic aspect of it is that there is no way around it, we absolutely all do it, all the time. Our very choice of words sculpts the frame we interpret the world through. That's why cold-reading and other types of mentalist scams work so well.
