is this for real?
If it is, are these people the flat earth society of mathematics?
Yes and yes.
Yes they are.
pls respond

Yes it's real.
No, but retards who can barely into math think it is.
Here is an interesting text describing a use case scenario for ultrafinitism.

The spectrum goes both ways, there are also nuts that think V≠L

Hot heads think Bane =/= big guy(4^U)

imho anything that uses a powerset of a countable infinite set is automatically only understandable from a formalist perspective. So why does "believe in V=L" matter? To choose it or its negation...it's a matter of interest and convenience.
Lecture me.
There's a point, though.
If you consider numbers much larger than the particles in the current state of the universe, and large than the configurations in which you could put those to form any sort of computer, and hence numbers which you can't possibly express explicitly, only in hypothetical shorthands like pic related - but you can't explicitly work with them ... those are odd numbers and we should acknowledged this. Not sure if this is math or another subject, though.

Where can I find black girls like this

Only the internet.
Every weird race mix you want too, pic related.
