Person A: Here's what you should do to fix things. Do this and do that correctly because what you're doing now is wrong.

Person B: Okay. Will do

Person B does what Person A says. Shit got worst

Person B: Hey. I did what you advised and it made things worst. What the hell, dude.

Person A: No one forced you to do anything. You are you're own person. Did anyone put a gun to your head and make you do it? No. It's all your fault. You got no one to blame but yourself.

Person A should just own up to the bad advice.

They definitely should but they won't. Is there a specific term for this type of logic or characteristic?

That's sort of gaslighting since they're denying involvement. Not fully since they're not completely denying it was their idea, though. Regardless, Person A is an ass.

Calling them an ass is too much of a generic term. People can easily shrug that label off. A more specific label for their specific action, now that's where you can really hurt them.

What's funny is when you're the guy looking from the outside speculating some weird ordeal, you can see the unreasonable act by either side but when you're actually part of the ordeal itself then it all seems to be "human" or normal behavior.

Well I wasn't shooting for "it's only normal" so much as "humans suck."
