A published work: Mitteilungen zur Lehre vom Transfiniten. Collected Works 378-439.
It seems Cantor was fumbling around, trying to get a handle on some
concept, and called it Realität for want of a better word. With the
benefit of over a century of development, we can see there is no need for
this concept, which might not even be consistent.
Uneducated cranks may think so. Reality however is the fact that proper subsets have fewer elements than their sets.
OK, Cantor said/wrote this. It is still rubbish from a modern point of
view.
The modern point of view is supported by fools only, mainly by uneducated poor thinkers.
