Math is also subjective:

In Robin DiAngelo’s (she along with Sensoy, Kendi, etc, are movers and shakers in CRT) book “Is Everyone Really Equal?”, DiAngelo posited:

1.) *”All knowledge* is taught from a particular perspective; the power of *dominant knowledge* depends in large part on its presentation as neutral and universal (Kincheloe, 2008)...*all knowledge* understood by humans is framed by the ideologies, language, beliefs, and and customs of human societies. *Even the field of science is subjective”* (p. 15).

2.) “Our analysis of social justice is based on a school of thought know as Critical Theory. Critical Theory refers to a body of scholarship that examines how society works, and is a tradition that emerged in the early part of the 20th century from a group of scholars at the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt, Germany [taught there by Marxists]” (p. 25)

3.) “One of the key contributions of critical theorists concerns the production of knowledge…. These scholars argue that a key element of social injustice involves the claim that particular knowledge is objective, neutral, and universal. An approach based on critical theory calls into question the idea that objectivity is desirable or even possible.* The term used to describe this way of thinking about knowledge is that knowledge is socially constructed.” (p. 29).

The foundation for Critical Race Theory is Critical Theory, the proponents of it possess the hubris to think they can possibly say “All knowledge” concerning whatever when only divine beings possess all knowledge and they aren’t divine, and they also possess the hubris to think math, chemistry, etc are subjective, so they behave as if they are the masters and shapers of reality.

If Saquon sells crack for $5 a rock and Jamal smokes 4 rocks a day, how much will Achmed at the corner store pay for the pre-loaded debit card?
