For those who are unaware‚ at least 1 and 2 are thanks to Georg Cantor and his invention of set theory. He had to endure a lot of resistance from the mathematical luminaries of his day - Kronecker and apparently‚ even Poincaré! Like Nietzsche‚ he died in a mental institution‚ the vicious attacks on his ideas (mostly by Kronecker) having supposedly played a part in Cantor’s breakdown. His mathematical ideas also ran afoul of some religious "philosophers" who‚ as is usually the case‚ are never ever
