Vicious cycles and questions without answers
preprint
OA: closed
Abstract
We provide a framework, which explains how so-called vicious cycles can thrive inspite of an individual rejecting them. Then, as a corollary, we show how easily one can escape them, by not rejecting them, simply because they do not exist as such, as sepatate entities. Within this framework, we discuss the paradoxical glue of vicious cycles “decision problem on something that does not exist” if and only if “vicious cycle”.
