When asked if falsification is itself falsifiable or if it fails its own criteria, Karl Popper responded:
“The first thing you do in a philosophy seminar when somebody proposes an idea is to say it doesn’t satisfy its own criteria. It is one of the most idiotic criticisms one can imagine!”
In your opinion, is this a valid response?
