I've noticed that when confronted regarding an error or mistake people on Lemmy double down about half the time.
Why? Why not just stay silent? Why not edit your comment? Why not admit you made a boo-boo? Why not delete your comment? Why not just ignore my comment and pretend nobody ever called you out?
All these choices and you went with doubling down. Makes no sense whatsoever.
Ok, so that explains keeping the original comment up.
That's not what baffles me. You knew you were wrong, I called you out, and then you tried to justify it to me despite knowing you were wrong.
Why would you do that? You defended a statement you knew was wrong. Why would you defend a position you didn't believe in?
