“On many levels, mathematics itself operates as Whiteness. Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as White.”

Even if the student is Asian?

Almost every quote in this article is a barely comprehensible syntactic word salad.

Why would these morons need math? To add up their welfare checks? to calculate how much money is on their EBT cards? To count their illegitimate children?

Because the morons can’t get math, they claim it isn’t valid at all.

Math is universally true, and invented by straight white men. Thank you.

Truth is always what is "right."

Reality Is Not A Grievance

Not "Social" & Not "Just"

The lunacy being promoted, today, is an insult to all of us, and is most damaging to those the Left pretends to be trying to help.

Greatest Mischief

I’m always amazed at how someone can desperately want to politicize something that is just fundamentally not political at any level.

Left school with a first class pass,
Started work but as second class.
School taught one and one is two.
But right now, that answer just ain’t true.

2 + 2 = 5 - for large values of ‘2’.

What a load of triple-distilled leftist garbage! It was a labor simply to wade through all the “social justice” made up terminology. We would never have landed on the moon, erected towering buildings, or been able to carbon date ancient organisms if the math necessary to perform those tasks had been contaminated with the restrictions and perversions this social justice idiocy would have imposed on it. Can you imagine a NASA scientist sharing his computations with a colleague, only to have them remark that the parentheses around an equation reminded him of a woman’s hips and were therefore sexist? Or some other absurd thing? If we restricted math to what these idiots consider “socially acceptable”, we’d be using our fingers and toes to count on.

Radiohead - 2+2=5

Are you such a dreamer,
To put the world to rights?
I’ll stay home forever,
Where two and two always makes a five

I’ll lay down the tracks,
Sandbag and hide,
January has April showers,
And two and two always makes a five

It’s the Devil’s way now,
There is no way out,
You can scream and you can shout,
It is too late now

Because you have not been
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention

Yeah I feel it, I needed attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention

Yeah I need it, I needed attention,
I needed attention,
I needed attention,
I needed attention

Yeah I love it, the attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention,
Payin’ attention
I try to sing along,
I get it all wrong,
‘Cause I’m not,
‘Cause I’m not
I swat ‘em like flies,
But…

It’s been 40 years but can I get another opinion on my SAT scores, please?

It is intolerable to these people, that there is a subject where performance can be (and MUST be) objectively graded. As in 1984, the Party cannot tolerate the assertion that the Party cannot make 2+2=5 whenever it chooses.
