OP here, reading all the comments and theories as to why the I or L or whatever isn’t a match. I copy and pasted it after it didn’t like my typing skills, tried it twice and no go… I believe the periods aren’t an acceptable special character even though they technically are. It also would not accept spaces in-between words, I was first gonna use “I hate password” for my password but no go there.
The password it accepted was weak AF, two “stupid-words” strung together.
Seems like they don’t consider a period to be a “special character”
That’s not the issue here as the special character check passes. It’s the validation between the two fields that’s broken.

No, one is an uppercase “I” while the other is a lowercase “L.” lI — you can see the difference when you compare it to the nearby “h.”
Ah, so OP was up to shenanigans??? I should have suspected as much from that mischievous miscreant!!!
Yeah I think that’s the main issue. It wouldn’t take it with spaces so I put the periods instead. Rage face
