Why are people so obscenely resistant to admitting when they've lost? Why is this true for YOU? Why are you *personally* so resistant?

Or is that not a self-reflection that people are capable of? Is it like thinking about infinity? Then forget it, and just talk about the dumbasses you've proven wrong. WTF is going on with them? Get a load of those obstinate bastards, am I right? The nerve.

What's so bad about being wrong sometimes? I literally don't get it. Help this dumbass understand. When they're about to see they're wrong, people act like you insulted their mother.

What gives? Thoughts?

I always admit when I’m wrong, but the issue is I’m rarely wrong.

The two are not unrelated.

When you admit you are wrong, you have the opportunity to correct yourself, which means you won't be wrong that way in the future.

If you can't admit when you're wrong, you continue to make the same mistakes.

The earlier you learn humility, the easier it is to leave your failings in your childhood and grow past them.

I am wrong on day to day things. My politics are 99.9% correct
