He physically cannot admit when he is wrong. Sometimes it's literally so clear that he messed up, whether it was an accident or not, and he still cannot take accountability. I can present to him all the evidence needed for it to classify as proof. He'll then create some bullshit argument that's genuinely so retarded I can't even argue against it.

He slowly gets more angry and controlling whenever I make good points. From here, he'll just resort to fallacies. I'm probably at fault in most scenarios, but at least I can admit when I'm wrong. I don't think I've ever heard the word "sorry" come out of his mouth.

When I was younger, his tactics used to work on me. I used to believe I was in the wrong in every single scenario. As I got older and started to think for myself, I realized this isn't the case in a lot of situations.

Despite this, I obviously still love my dad for all his positive traits. Does anybody else relate to my situation?

Exact same situation. Whenever I debate my dad on something, and I show proof, he just gets angry instead of admiting hes wrong. I just stopped debating with him or trying to teach him something as he just screams like a retard

Men are disagreeable creatures, and nobody likes being proven wrong

It's annoying as shit to put up with but we do the same thing for the most part, it's human nature to fight tooth and nail when you get called out on your own shortcomings

My dad grew up in Africa with very strict and abusive parents, so he probably learned most of his negative behaviour from them
Yeah my dad is from a dirt poor village in ukraine and spent 12 years as a military officer, terrible parent

true but if you can’t admit that you’re wrong when you’ve been disproven, then you have a little problem

Same scenario with my Dad.

He often resorts to generalisations and straw man arguments when there is a genuine disagreement. If I don't admit that he was correct all along, he either searches for different ways to dismiss my credibility (not directly related to my points) or shuts me down under the guise that I'm coming at the conversation from the perspective of an "argument".

You are right though, it definitely is a form of manipulation.

I am 20 though so there's only so much I can say, he has given me so much.

most of it if not all comes from upbringing and what he was taught. shit sucks my pops is kinda similar except when i outline and dissect an argument between us he’s willing to admit he’s wrong. now whether he’ll improve from that is a diff story but a lot of the times if he’s mad he resorts to yelling like an autistmaxxed ape nigga. i j do my best to stay quiet when he’s having one of his retarded screaming episodes cuz i can’t change him and u can’t change ur dad it’s impossible. stubbornness is a sick drug unfortunately. only thing is improving urself from this shit and not pass it on to ur kids if u decide on going that route.
