I've tried to meet you in the middle when I said you had misinterpreted me but I could've been clearer, I've also brought the conversation to an end multiple times, but you keep telling me I'm wrong, despite the fact that YOU misinterpreted me from the start.
You're absolutely full of shit, acting like you won't waste anymore of your time. You're determined that there's no possible way you could be wrong, and you can't drop it, or you would've stopped when I stopped any of those previous times.
You should maybe speak to someone about your need to be right over people, because it seems clear you have something going on there that needs addressing.
Dude, you've been called out for bullshitting and caught in a lie - which is right there, for everyone to see - and you have no response, other than to say that I'm full of shit.
You never tried to meet in the middle. You just tried to reframe, once again, claiming I was misinterpreting you. If you really meant 'light grey', why did you bullshit about supposed issues with dark grey and 'black is always black' rather than clarify? Here's a guess: You knew you weren't misintepreted, but when your initial response was picked apart, you thought you could lie your way out - because the alternative was admitting to being wrong, and that's beyond your capability.
And no, I don't mind wasting some more time to set the record straight on a public forum. But since it's now clear to all that you've been arguing in bad faith all along, there really is no need to continue.
I'll be honest here, I really couldn't care less what you say anymore, you thought you could correct someone online and feel superior, it didn't pan out, and when you realised you'd misinterpreted everything from the start, you doubled down for the sake of pride.
It's cute, I feel for you, but the link you provided was totally irrelevant to the point being made, and you're now starting to look like a bit of a fool.
No-one cares.
No-one is going to read this far into our argument.
You can feel like your setting the record straight on a public forum if you want, but you were wrong from the start and literally no-one cares. No-one.
This is purely about your own ego and the need for you to be right.
It's OK, I'll admit defeat, you're right. You were right the whole time, I didn't even know the point I was making, but you did. Now run along.
