Karl Popper / 卡尔·波普尔

Karl Popper appears in 157.吹牛大王历险记：叔本华、扒马褂和超级英雄 through the episode’s discussion of the Munchausen motif and the problem of ultimate justification. The source summarizes the dilemma as circular proof, infinite regress, or arbitrary stopping.

In the wiki, Popper’s role here is source-specific: the episode groups him with Arthur Schopenhauer / 叔本华, Friedrich Nietzsche / 尼采, and Ludwig Wittgenstein / 维特根斯坦 to show how Munchausen Self-Bootstrapping travels from comic adventure into epistemology.
