>Be me on university lecture
>Professor is ``proving'' a theorem
>I realize what he is telling us is straight up bullshit
>I immediatly stand up in the middle of the lecture
>Tell him that what he means by proof is only valid if we take the axiom of infinity for granted
>The rest of the class turns silent the moment I spoke
>Professor is speechless
>He says there is no reason to not accept the existence of infinite sets
>I yell at him that putting an adjective in front of a noun does not in itself make a mathematical concept. Cantor who turned mathematics into a bad joke declared that an infinite set is a set which is not finite. Its like declaring that an all-seing leprechaun is a leprechaun which can see everything. These grammatical constructions do not create concepts, excepts perhaps in a literary or poetic sense.
>Professor is visibly nervous and starts shaking
>He has no arguments and tells me to leave the lecture hall for disturbing the class
>The rest of the class stands up with me and says that if im expelled from the lecture they will leave too
>Professor starts crying and decides to leave the lecture hall in tears and ashamed
>Everyone starts clapping for me and chanting my name

kek based OP showing his retard lecturer.
everyone knows that infinity isn't real because of the extreme density large numbers face results in no more growth.
we basically have a thread about this every day.
assuming you're mapping the naturals, you'd need to construct them without infinite density such that in the neighborhood of infinity N=/=N+1. I call these Satan's naturals, because they look like naturals but we contracted them to be have very differently than actual number would work.
so the axiom relies on a choice of an abstract mapping, it's basically retarded.

You're supposed to stay quiet shill. Most academics are retards and the smart ones leave. The ones that stay get caught up in power politics between the other retards, and they all end up spending no time actually creating meaningful work. It won't be your fault, but its likely you'll bebculled by people dumber than you.

This BS isn't entirely wrong; infinites are impossible. For rational infinite we know how they end, so they should be treated as such for calculations.

0.999... * 10 = 9.999...0
9.999...0 - 0.999... = 8.999...1
