Homologophobia
Fear of agreeing to someone else.
The irrational dread or refusal to concede an argument or admit that another person is correct. A person suffering from homologophobia (a homologophobe) will stubbornly double down on a false statement or actively disagree with a factually accurate point purely out of fear of losing face, bruising their ego, or granting their opponent a "win." Derived from the Greek 'homologia' (agreement/assent) and 'phobia' (fear).
