You declaring something to be true (or not true) does not make it so.
Nor does the paradox (it is a paradox btw, you don't get to unilaterally define what a paradox is or is not and the above is definitely accepted as a valid paradox) depending ALL language being logically consistent, it is, in fact that language can express logically inconsistent statements that allows paradoxes.

This has literally nothing to do with the original statement OR the comment you are replying to.
