An upcoming international math conference should be moved outside of the United States of America due to Trump’s “unbridled hatred of immigrants” and because the “country [is] on the verge of martial law,” professors say.
A petition, which reportedly has more than 2,300 signatures from more than 75 countries, demands the International Congress of Mathematicians relocate its planned July conference in Philadelphia. The petition says there is precedent for the action, since the 2022 conference in Russia was relocated due to the war. […]
The mathematicians continue on to cite grievances they have, including “aiding and abetting the ongoing genocide in Palestine, including pushing for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza to make room for luxury real estate.” […]
Organizers include University of Toronto professor Ila Varma and Haverford College professor Tarik Aougab.
This is not Aougab’s first foray into politics — in February, he wrote a “defense of de-platforming Zionists on college campuses,” for Mondoweiss. …

Good. And stay out.

I wouldn’t want to go through the TSA for a math conference.
2300 worldwide?
They could get 2300 teachers from San Francisco to sign that.
He married two immigrants.
Worst hater EVAH!
Mathematicians jumping to conclusions. That doesn’t give one confidence in their math.
Ah, the real reason. Jooos! Can't allow Jooos into a math conference.
Nothing they do makes sense Philadelphia is a completely democrat minority city loaded with illegal immigrants.
It’s sad though that their minds have been polluted with leftist propaganda.
Trump is the only President to marry an immigrant. John Quincy Adams’ wife was born in England but her father was an American.
Boy, these guys have got the TDS bad.
It is not just Trump. It is almost any country that got a taste of the turd world imported to them.
I don know…I am sure these Math Conferences can get CRAY-ZEEEE! With all of the adding and subtracting…and dividing. It can get out of hand pretty fast!
Quite literally.
the math isn’t adding up
Bye bye whoever you are.
Remember the long ongoing Equal Rights Amendment battles? Many groups did virtue signaling by refusing to meet in states that voted against the ERA or were delaying voting for it.
“Over 400 organizations, representing over 50 million people, refused to hold conventions or meetings in unratified states, causing significant economic pressure and legal challenges...”

“the country is on the verge of martial law”
WOW. Good to know. /s
Don’t forget about multiplying…oh baby.
The Church of the Mathematical Assumption has spoken.
Mathemagicians. Rocket surgeons will be next.
