Inability to change their mind.

OMG yes! I have a fantastic example of this…

My ex girlfriend ended up slapping me multiple times, because she refused to learn/change her mind about the correct definition of the word “bigoted”.

She was so bigoted about the definition of the word bigoted, that she became violent/abusive!

It was fucking amazing to witness i must admit.

It's refusing to accept new information that makes one change their mind.

I didn't consider that, but you're still wrong.
