Repetition Without Return: Judgemental Saturation and the Structural Erosion of Meaning

This paper explores whether repetition strengthens or dissolves the structure of judgement. Utilizing the Judgemental Triad—Constructivity, Coherence, and Resonance—we examine how repeated exposure to identical or similar events affects the structural preconditions for meaningful attribution. We argue that while repetition can reinforce coherence and construct symbolic familiarity, excessive or mechanized repetition leads to resonance collapse, thereby undermining the possibility of judgement itself. Meaning decays not through forgetting, but through the saturation of return. We conclude that repetition without renewal is not memory—it is structural erosion.
