🎧 Nine Moons Certain: A Fate Unfalsifiable (Part I of III)

What makes a belief dangerous?

This is the first installment in a three-part cycle exploring the myth of Oedipus through an epistemic lens—drawing on the philosophy of Karl Popper and the problem of unfalsifiable belief.

In this episode: prophecy and certainty, doubt and identity, the word that cannot be unheard, and the quiet beginning of a trap that closes one reasonable decision at a time.

A king hears a prophecy—and acts as if it cannot be wrong.

A son hears a word—and begins to question everything.

Between them lies a belief that cannot be tested… and therefore cannot fail.
