All food has bacteria and little spores of fungi on it. Over time the bacteria and fungi grows but can be slowed by freezing and refrigeration. Though that is the case, they still grow and will eventually spoil.
If you keep defrosting and freezing the same batch of food that is growing a bacteria colony right there. Same as reheating and refrigerating the same batch of food.

Bacteria thrives in moist warm conditions, if food is stored incorrectly it will go mouldy.

Generally things with high moisture or protein go mouldy quicker.
