And I made a mistake, it happens and I even admitted it and provided the proper examples.

Very few qualifications require practical testing, if you want to circle a discussion on the one I made a mistake on in choosing that’s on you.

Ok, but you said "lots of people get PhDs" without being able to defend their ideas. It's literally the opposite.

No one gets a PhD without being able to defend their ideas from very hard questions. You are 100% incorrect. Your dissertation defense did not go well and we cannot award you the degree of "Doctorate of Commenting".

And I admitted I made a mistake and corrected it.

What do you think you’re proving by continuing to argue after I admitted my mistake, corrected it and explained it? Lmfao.

At what point are you satisfied after someone admits their mistake? Are ya just going to stay hung up on the fact that someone said something incorrect? Do you move on?
