The pot calling the kettle black
Proverbial idiom referring to an example of hypocrisy
"The pot calling the kettle black" is a proverbial idiom that may be of Spanish (or ultimately Italian) origin, of which English versions began to appear in the first half of the 17th century. It means a situation in which somebody accuses someone else of a fault which the accuser shares, and therefore is an example of psychological projection,[1] or hypocrisy.[2] Use of the expression to discredit or deflect a claim of wrongdoing by attacking the originator of the claim for their own similar behaviour (rather than acknowledging the guilt of both) is the tu quoque logical fallacy.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rwyusq7bh7hpzuilessk6d3c/bafkreidbkucofqmmqntunoykqvgyrvcw4s6vdrsmtszlq7csr67vqlb3gq@jpeg)
