There is no better way to demonstrate that you are an egotistical pseudo-intellectual hack than to use the terms 'infinitely many', 'demonstrably so', and 'QED'.
>infinitely many
We have a word for that. It's 'infinity'. Anyone that says 'infinitely many' instead of 'infinity' is a pseudo-intellectual retard.
>demonstrably so
There isn't necessarily anything inherently wrong with this phrase, but whenever I encounter someone using it in practice, they're using it with the exclusive intent of inflating their ego. I would instead say something like 'provably so', not because it is inherently better, but because the egotistical pseudointellectuals have ruined the phrase 'demonstrably so' by using it for ego inflationary purposes instead of legitimate purposes.
>QED
Valid when used to refer to quantum electrodynamics. When used to refer to having demonstrated or proven something, it's retarded as fuck and again used as an ego inflater, not as something of actual value or meaning.

And as such you cannot have """infinitely many""" apples, dumbfuck retard. Infinity does not exist, but the word exists to be used in the same context as a quantity. What the fuck else would you use the word infinity for, retard?

Why are you so intimidated by intelligence OP? Were you bullied by some nerds as a child? Or perhaps you're lashing out on intelligent people because of a deep sense of intellectual inadequacy? We're not your enemies OP and the sooner you realize that is the sooner you'll be able to start making sense of the world.

Infinity is the same type of word as three, retard.
>>11527998
I was literally the smartest math student in my entire school. Not saying a lot since it was only 150 students but still says something. Went to state in math comp, took AP calculus in 10th grade, started college in 11th grade, etc. I am not a hyperintelligent prodigy genius but I am smarter than most people. So no, intelligence does not intimidate me. It just annoys me that mainstream academia is plagued with pseudointellectual retards and egotism, and retarded phrases like "infinitely many" which can just be replaced with "infinity"

So by your logic we should use 'infinite' instead of 'infinitely many'. I am somewhat okay with that. But it's still less than ideal. Yes, infinite is an adjective. But a number can also be used as an adjective. 'Infinity' is the word that is to be used the same as a number. So it's like using the word 'three'.
'There are infinite apples' means that there is an unlimited amount of apples.
'There are infinity apples' means that the quantity of apples is ∞ (∞ being the number called 'infinity'; and yes infinity is not really a number but if we are pretending to have infinity apples then we are pretending that infinity is a number).
Both are the same thing.

Look up the "use-mention" distinction. To use a word is to refer to what the word is generally understood to refer to. To mention (or reference) a word is to refer only to the word itself. For example:
The cat has sharp claws.
>cat is used
"Cat" has three letters
>"cat" is mentioned
