Liar paradox - If this sentence were true, then what it says would be the truth, implying that it is false which is a contradiction, so if it were false then it is false that this sentence is false, hence it is true which is also a contradiction.

I know what I said.

Again - the initial post and this conversation is about sentences - not their communication, interpretations, and miscommunications.

I've not been debating you on anything else, though you're avidly trying to twist it into another discussion to validate another stance. If you want that discussion, then that's a whole other discussion, but you haven't swayed me on this.

Wittgenstein is moot.

Have you tried 'correcting' the Wikipedia article?
