I am freshman in college doing Logic and Set Theory course. I am 3 months in and i don't know what the fuck is going on in the lectures anymore.
It started kind of easy but after few weeks in, it became the hardest thing i've studied in my life.
I am complete brainlet please recommend me some books or curses that will help understand it and get throught it.

I was only taught how logic and set theory are applicable in math. Axiomatic Set Theory is completely new for me.

Well what exactly are you being taught

Like right now? Contiuum Hyphotesis.
But if you ask about what are we beeing taught in this course i would say proofs and more proofs.

>Continuum Hypothesis

I am going to try to say this in a very calm manner, without bursting a vein. Drop out. Any school that tries to pass off that piece of unfalsifiable, unprovable, wishywashy handwavy garbage of an """"Hypothesis"""" (named like that to give it credibility) as anything but an interesting factoid that should be given no attention or merit, is a school that's not worth attending. The Continuum """"Hypothesis"""" is one of the worst memes that Cantor ever graced us with. Purge all of your """knowledge""" about it immediately, forget you ever read about it and drop the fuck out. FUCK the Continuum """"Hypothesis"""".
