The Lumi Paradox is a paradox where a person is trapped between the borders of cringe and based.
If a person is cringe, it is considered based to dislike them. However, if said person dislikes themselves, does that then mean they are based? If that is the case then is it still based to dislike them, or is it now cringe?

I went back in time and accidentally killed myself, but I'm not gone because since I was never born. I never came back and killed myself, so that means I'm still alive in the future to come back in time and kill myself, which is why I'm here, having just killed myself and restarted the vicious cycle.
