when x is defined as True(L,x) then x is not a truth bearer.
So, x being DEFINED to be a certain sentence doesn't make x to have the same meaning as the sentence itself?
What does it mean to define a name to a given sentence, if not that such a name referes to exactly that sentence?
p = ~True(L,p) // p is not a truth bearer because its refers to itself
True(L,p) is false
True(L,~p) is false
~True(True(L,p)) is true and is referring to the p that refers
to itself it is not referring to its own self.

Again, what does "Defined as" mean to you?
x := y means x is defined to be another name for y
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logic_symbolsLP := ~True(L,LP)
means ~True(~True(~True(~True(~True(...)))))
It is the common convention to encode self-reference incorrectly.
LP ↔ ~True(L, LP)
ϕ(x) there is a sentence ψ such that S ⊢ ψ ↔ ϕ⟨ψ⟩.
The sentence ψ is of course not self-referential in a
strict sense, but mathematically it behaves like one.
