Why do some people never admit their mistake?

[neku]

I have noticed that in the internet sector, many powerful people and companies refuse to admit their mistake, though it can be legally proved that they are making fake allegations and a lot of money is being wasted destroying the life of an innocent person. Why do some people refuse to admit their mistake?

People may fear repercussions like punishment, job loss, or damaged relationships if they admit to making a mistake.

It's their pride and ego that hinder them to accept their mistake. They are afraid to be jailed, They also do not have conscience that can torture them from their evil acts.

One of the most common reason most people don't admit it when they are wrong is usually due to pride.

Everyone has a different character, personally I will admit and apologize if I make a mistake whether intentionally or not, but there are some people who will not admit their mistakes for several reasons such as avoiding punishment, fear of failure and ego.
