“Math became racist the first day it was used to count black crimes....”

Nice! No doubt.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Not the Babylon Bee .... color me surprised!

Joe McCarthy was 100% correct, and our society will not be whole again until every communist is rooted out of every little nook and cranny.

[Overtaxed]

So Shroedinger’s cat either is or isn’t racist.

Uh-oh! You said black and white. You must be rayciss!

[Savage Beast]

'The group concludes with a call for a “pursuit of justice” within math.'

Why not just abolish the racist, deplorable, abominable thing altogether?

[all the best]

You don’t get it. They beat you to it. Progressive whites readily declare that they are racist. All whites are, doncha know.

[Savage Beast]

So if you want to learn algebra, geometry, calculus, etc., TOO BAD! You’re going to engage in conversations about the detrimental effects of race and racism instead! TOUGH LUCK!

I agree.

The founders admit to being Godless marxists.

They have openly stated that they will accept only the destruction of Judeo Christian Western Civilization, the heterosexual family unit, acceptance of "queer" ideology, dhimmi status, enslavement or eradication of Whites and Jews.

Their tactics are right out of chairman mao' "Little Red Book" and his Red Guards.

It is Satanically inspired.

In my whole life, I have never read anything so stupid. Math is not racist. It can’t be. It has nothing to do in any way, fashion, or otherwise to do with race.

Stupid, yes, but scary that someone could draw such an conclusion on math.

That looks like the New Math
if math (x) is racist and money (y) is racist, what is the outcome of x/dugs and Y/drugs divided by 18% of felons voting in upcoming election goes into illegals voting in Ilhan Omar’s CD5?

Jethro did goes intos: 2 goesinto 4, 4 goesinto 8.

IIRC, there was a state that set pi equal to 22/7.
