Every accusation is an admission.

  This seems like a flippant comment, but as someone who has total "middle child mentality," and just wants everyone to get along, there are just so many times that this has turned out to be true that it has begun to heavily polarize me. I hate that.

    Agreed, it is a surprisingly consistent pattern. I worked at a company acquired by another company. There were two tech support departments and the other department loved to make accusations about our department faking numbers and cases. So finally after years of insinuations and accusations another department was asked to look into it. The team throwing around the accusations were the theam faking numbers and closing cases without resolving them and so on. It was bizarre.

      I was hoping people might feel reflexive and self-aware, so my usage was ironic, yet also earnest. ‘Every accusation is an admission (“including this one”/“except this one”).’
