Charing on hold, battery at 2 percent
If I unplug my MacBook immediately dies. So I can't comprehend how this "feature" is helpful. How do I get it to charge and turn off this nonsense
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.1

Charging on hold at 2% is not a feature, but a sign of a hardware issue of some sort.
Unfortunately you neglected to provide some very important details such as the exact model of your laptop.
If you have an Intel Mac, the perform an SMC Reset (read the instructions carefully since the procedure has changed for certain models).
Here are two Apple articles for troubleshooting charging issues:
If your MagSafe cable or power adapter isn't working - Apple Support
If your USB-C power adapter isn't charging your Mac laptop - Apple Support
If you are using a Magsafe3 charging cable, then try using a USB-C charging cable until you can get the laptop repaired.
