A leftist organization called “The Queer Mathematics Teacher” is seeking to embed gender theory in K-12 math classes.

The firm also offers coaching services to teachers, which include curriculum design, district-wide audits, and professional development workshops. The site claims, “The ability to consider sexuality irrelevant in the mathematics context is a heteronormatively privileged position” and notes that some areas of expertise include “queer pedagogy,” “teaching mathematics for social justice,” “Fostering Students’ Growth Mindset (While Advocating for Systemic Change),” and “humanizing Mathematics Education for LGBTQ+ Students.”

Waid confesses in her article that math used to be a source of anxiety for her, which she links with her sexuality. She writes, “I associated mathematics with profound anxiety, intricately tied to my fears of confronting my queer identity...”

America is indeed a rich country. We have plenty of printed fiat money and debt to keep such psychopaths in comfortable positions where they do nothing good.

And exactly what are “queer mathematics” used for? To count for the appropriate number of stripes on a queer flag?

Mathematics transcends physical reality, not just on the imaginary axis but entirely.

Math exists without life, the universe or anything.

It sums to 42.

All lines are bent.

Black holes are for worship, not study.

There are at least 57 solutions to every problem.

Proofs are based on emotional gratification.

The theory of relativity rules, but since that’s too complicated for students, the acceptable approximation is “anything goes.”
