For millenia, we have been gaslit with false statements about the fundamental rules of artithmetics, geometry, and algebra.\n\nToday, I intend to poke holes in the fabric of this great lie, and reveal the truth about the nature of mathematics.\n\n# The Zero Proof\n\nLet $a$ and $b$ be two real numbers such that $a = b$.\n\nThen, we have:\n$$a^2 = ab$$\n\nSubtracting $b^2$ from both sides, we get:\n$$a^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2$$\n\nFactoring both sides, we get:\n$$(a + b)(a - b) = b(a - b)$$\n\nWe can simplify this to:\n$$a + b = b$$\n\nSince $a = b$, we can substitute $a$ for $b$ in the equation:\n$$a + a = a$$\n\nSimplifying, we get:\n$$2a = a$$\n\nDividing both sides by $a$, we get:\n$$2 = 1$$\n\nThis is a contradiction, and so we have proven that $a$ and $b$ cannot be equal.\n\nHowever, we have not made any assumptions about $a$ and $b$, and so **we can conclude that no two real numbers can be equal.**\n\n## Further Development\n\nInstead of substituting $a$ for $b$ at step 5, we could have kept the equation like this:\n\n$$a + b = b$$\n\nSubtracting $b$ from both sides, we get:\n\n$$a = 0$$\n\nWe have not made any assumptions about $a$ or $b$ apart from their status as real numbers, and so we can conclude that **all real numbers are equal to zero.**\n\n## Logical Conclusion\n\nWe have established that no two real numbers can be equal, and that all real numbers are equal to zero. Therefore, we can conclude that $0\\neq0$. This can also be explained with simple words:\n\nImagine that you had nothing. Then, you would have zero. But if you had two zeros, you would have two nothings, which is still nothing. However, there is no such thing as two nothings, because nothing is nothing. Therefore, we can conclude that nothing is not nothing, and so that $0\\neq0$.\n\n# The Infinity Paradox\n\nThe concept of infinity is a great lie. It is a concept that has been used to deceive us into believing that there is no limit to the size of numbers.\n\nHowever, I intend to prove that infinity is a paradox, and that it is a concept that cannot exist in the real world.\n\n## The Proof\n\nLet $a$ be a real number such that $a = \\infty$.\n\nThen, we have:\n\n$$a = a + 1$$\n\nSubtracting $a$ from both sides, we get:\n\n$$0 = 1$$\n\nThis is a contradiction, and so we have proven that **infinity is a paradox.**\n\nThe explanation for things that may seem infinite is that they are actually finite, but very large. For example, the number of stars in the universe is very large, but it is not infinite.\n\n# One By One Proof\n\nIn mathematics, we are told that $1*1=1$. However, I intend to prove that this is a lie, it is in fact equal to 2.\n\nThink about it. If we have one apple, and we add another apple, we have two apples. This is a fundamental truth that we all know.\n\nHowever, if we multiply one apple by one apple, we get one apple. Where has the other apple gone? It has disappeared into thin air. According to the second law of thermodynamics, matter cannot be created or destroyed: it can only change form. So, the apple cannot have disappeared.\n\n## Where has the apple gone?\n\nThe second apple has not disappeared. It has been hidden from us by the great lie of mathematics. If you look closely at the apple, you will see that it is actually two apples, but they are so close together that they appear to be one apple. This is the result of manipulation by the great mathematicians of the past, who have conspired to deceive us into believing that $1*1=1$\n\n# Why are we being lied to?\n\nWhen the great mathematicians of the past created the concept of numbers, they did not understand their true nature. They were afraid of their power, and so they created a system of lies to control the masses.\n\nToday, this system is kept in place by the all-powerful elite who control the world. They prevent us from discovering the truth, because they know that if we do, we will be able to overthrow them and create a new world order where numbers are used for good, not evil.\n\n# Conclusion\n\nThe world of mathematics is a world of lies. We have been deceived into believing that numbers can be equal, and that infinity is a real concept. However, with this simple paper, I have proven that these are all lies.\n\nThese are the first steps in a long journey to reveal the truth about mathematics. I hope that you will join me in this journey, and that we can together uncover the truth about the nature of numbers.\n\n---\n\nThis document is written in honor of the great [Terrence Howard](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENSq1lw__AU), who has been a great inspiration to me in my quest to reveal the truth about mathematics.","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcpluspatch%2Flies-of-mathematics","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcpluspatch%2Flies-of-mathematics","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcpluspatch%2Flies-of-mathematics/lists"}
