Theory of Recursivity and Generativity of Biases and Similar Issues
The idea that biases, logical fallacies, and similar cognitive and rhetorical distortions can be generated recursively and generatively from virtually any starting point. Because humans are pattern‑seeking, self‑justifying, and social, we can construct accusations of bias against any claim, and those accusations themselves can be accused of bias, ad infinitum. The theory explains why online debates often spiral into endless meta‑discussion about who is committing which fallacy, and why attempts to purge “bias” from discourse tend to produce new biases rather than eliminate them.
