It is generally accepted among modern mathematicians that the square root of 2 exists. However, there is a fringe group of mathematicians called finitists who argue otherwise. In this article, I will use algebra to show that the Square Root of 2 does indeed exist.

Algebra is all about the properties of numbers. Let's start with a number:

We start with 1. Then we know that 1 squared is 2 and so 22 = 4. We can just add 12 and 22 together to get 12. We can do the same thing with 92 and 42 to get 16. In general, the number we get when we add all the numbers we found by multiplying together will be bigger than the number that we started with. A number that equals the number we started with is called a normal number. We can continue to do this process, continuing to add numbers that have been found. Eventually, we will get to the number we started with. Now, what is a normal number? Some people say that the number we will eventually get after all this is no square root of 2. But the square root of 2 is a normal number.

So the square root of 2 exists. But just to be sure, let's check what is actually a square root of 2. Suppose you try to show me that 2 is a square root of 2. If we look at the proof that 13 + 22 = 4 and then divide that by 3, we see that 23 - 32 = 1. Then 22 - 12 = 23. Therefore, if we can do the same thing with 32 and 42, we see that 32 - 12 = 23 + 12. In other words, 32 - 13 is a square root of 2. But what is the square root of 2?

We can define a number that is not a square. We can find the square root of two. It is simply the smallest number that is the square of the square

I legitimately thought this was all a meme and people were just going along with it for fun until I saw this formal fucking address and Q/A at Oxford:

It was on that day that I realized average IQ wasn't "going up" like they say. There's just so many people being born with low IQ that the developed world raises by default.
God forgive us

I used to think that niggers were really stupid humans, but recently discovered that under certain classifications they could be considered a different species entirely.

I now think that Niggers are the average of their own species while there are of course some outliers we can call "blacks," in the same way Koko the gorilla was an outlier.
