> The average intelligent viewer will be left confused and intimidated

I’m not qualified to know if your post is better or worse than Netflix’s documentary, Bill, but this is an egregious example of a pot calling a kettle black.



To be fair, it does a decent job of plowing through set theory in only a short rant about why the documentary is bad, forgetting to rant about the documentary because there's so much math to cover.

It only commits the cardinal sin of trimming it down so much that it makes sense if and only if the reader is already familiar with it, leaving other intelligent readers confused and intimidated.


What's the ordinal sin?


Tacit assumption that every pair is ordered.


I am qualified to figure that out.

The post may be confusing, but it gets its math correct. And describes the documentary getting it wrong. So the post is probably better.


All people engage in mysticism, but when Materialists do it they expect a free pass, and due to being the dominant ideology (and also: cheating) they ~always win arguments, keeping everyone locked inside their artificial and invisible reality dome.

C'est la vie!!


Yes, not all readers will follow everything but my post is true and studying it will clear things up. However the movie will resit any attempted clarification.
