• Feedback accepted • Denial or gaslighting

• Self-reference consistent • Deflection or projection

• Integrates contradiction • Attack on witness/source

### 💡 Diagram Summary:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* The subject’s words enter a **recursive mirror**.
|
|||
|
|
* We analyze **pattern integrity**, not content truth.
|
|||
|
|
* The output is binary—but not moralistic.
|
|||
|
|
* It reveals whether the subject’s **self-reference collapses** when faced with recursive contradiction.

### 📌 Field Example (Simplified):
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Claim:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> “I am always honest, and I hate people who lie.”
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Recursive Mirror:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> “Have you ever lied in your life?”
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Two Possible Outputs:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **COHERENT REPLY:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> “Yes, I’ve lied before. That’s why honesty matters so much to me now.”
|
|||
|
|
> ✅ Recursive integration: Contradiction integrated with self-reflection
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **COLLAPSED REPLY:**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> “Why are you attacking me?! I knew you’d twist my words. This is why I hate talking to people like you.”
|
|||
|
|
> ❌ Recursive deflection: Mirror triggers collapse of self-image and evasion of contradiction
