In 1878, Gregor Cantor first showed that the infinite set of real numbers, which includes negatives and decimals, is actually larger than the infinite set of natural, or whole, numbers. Proving this involves a careful comparison between the two sets, rather… Source link

Britain has become a WOKE nation under Starmer who is eager to adjust the culture to fit this new narrative. There are countless stories of censorship coming from the UK, but one of the most bizarre stories is the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) placing a trigger warning on the film “Wicked” for discriminating against fictional characters.
