This is a rough cartoon of a person getting yelled at by their boss. The same person then goes and displaces their anger by shouting at another employee because they are the easier target. Displacement is a defense mechanism.
Displacement is a defense mechanism where we redirect or shift an emotional response from the recipient we want to express it to (but can't) to someone who is an "easy target." Since it is a defense mechanism, it essentially means that we are not conscious of it.

A drawing of two skunk people at a table. The mother is drinking tea or coffee. Her son is eating spaghetti, which he had gotten all over the table, all over his face, and all over his shirt and napkin. The mom is saying "Haha. Silly kid. You've got spaghetti all over your face." The son is saying "No, YOU have spaghetti all over YOUR face." ..... Psychological projection is a defense mechanism in which an individual unconsciously attributes their own unacceptable thoughts, feelings, emotions, impulses, or traits to another person, group, animal, or object to avoid confronting them internally. This process allows a person to manage uncomfortable emotions like guilt, shame, or anxiety by externalizing them, making it easier to tolerate the internal conflict. First conceptualized by Sigmund Freud, projection involves displacing negative or undesirable aspects of the self onto others, thereby preserving self-esteem and avoiding internal discomfort. While it can serve as a short-term coping strategy, unchecked projection can lead to interpersonal conflict, misunderstanding, and damage to relationships.

A common archetype that i have observed is one in which an individual uses two layers of defense to protect an otherwise unexamined confusion or emptiness. This relates to a defense of the ego and does not apply to all situations involving anything discussed. First posturing: -A mask (or wall) of mockery is sustained in which the defensive individual behaves flippantly as if in jest. This positioning is a way to be aloof from the situation, using incredulity and belittlement to keep a person or their ideas away from the defensive individual. Second posturing: -A mask (or wall) of rage is revealed after a certain level of perceived threat is achieved internally. This positioning is usually the one the defensive individual maintains when they have given up the argument or the introspection. Not risking an ontological or existential crisis, the defensive individual lashes out with anger, often accusatorily in manner, potentially belittling others further or just plain rushing away in a huff. This is usually the end of the engagement. Third posturing: -The masks (or walls) both come off, leaving the defensive individual to examine the thoughts or behaviors involved in the situation more critically. The defensive individual may find themselves feeling deeply uncomfortable, sad, uneasy, lost, or confused. This position leads to introspection and to a genuine openness, which is not something that the defensive individual had been prepared for. They may find that they were incorrect, only partially correct, or that they were entirely mistaken.

Photo showing an American toad pushing itself on its legs to look taller, while puffing itself to look larger. This is a typical defense mechanism against predators such as snakes, that eat their prey whole. The logic there is: if I'm too big for your mouth, you better not eat me! Watermark identifying photographer as Geneviève Laurin.
"Who goes there?"
I met this little guy while watering my potted plants last summer. He was NOT happy with my attempts to take his picture.
There, there, lil'buddy, I am duly impressed by your size and attitude.
