He said he go the antinomy of the liar, that is, he got something with the same form of contradiction as the liar paradox, not that he got exactly the liar paradox. Your problem is you are too stupid to understand what is being talked about, and just assume that they must be just as stupid as you and not expressing themselves well. In reality, all you are doing is showing your own stupidity. Sorry, but that is the FACTS, a concept that seems foreign to you.
