Own goal
An own goal, also called self goal, is where a player performs actions that result in them or their team scoring a goal on themselves, often resulting in a point for the opposing team, such as when a soccer player kicks a ball into their own net or goal, awarding the other team a point.Wikipedia

Colloquially, shooting oneself in the foot. Dismantling society in the vain hope of staving off the evolution of liberty.
