...mathematical identity and intelligence...

Why can't we just make up spit like liberals do? There's no such thing as mathematical identity bu I'm sure the thought police will be knocking on my door soon, huh?

Nice post!

As a person who took just one course of College Algebra and struggled to get an 89.5% by the end, I learned enough to highly appreciate the science and its place in our universe.

For me, I place much more value on subjects I struggle to understand than those that come easily.

Peace

The Trump Effect in play here. With his election, the communist takeover campaign has been exposed five, and more probably ten, years too early, so all the idiotic things you see the Left putting out, they had been expected to be able bake in gradually through the next few years, incrementally. Essentially, Trump was like a frog being boiled, but the heat was turned up too fast, before the frog was completely paralyzed from being able to jump out of the pot.

Seeing things like 2+2=Blacks being lynched was supposed to occur in about 2028, after the paradigm was to be inched up gradually through the American transformation through a Hillary presidency, Obama’s third and fourth terms. Didn’t happen that way, but I sense we are still too far gone as a society to right the ship anytime soon, and probably not ever. But at least total destruction won’t happen for at least five to ten more years.

Education, knowledge, reason - all are tools of oppression and must therefore be abolished. Pol Pot knew this.

It is only a matter of time before farts are considered hate speech.

Actually, they are 100% correct.

If I understand math and you do not, I will earn more money than you, best you in every negotiation between us, and in general have a more rewarding life.

Now this knowledge is freely taught, requiring only the will and effort to learn it. But race hustlers would rather complain than expend the effort.

I am reminded of the days of US slavery, when it was illegal to teach a black how to read. They are voluntarily returning to this days.

You know what?

Most white kids will still do fine because either start going to private or charter schools in droves and there will be some home schooling.

And another generation of blacks and hispanics will continue to live in the sewers and the prisons.

Seattle Public Schools "Ethnic Studies Advisory Committee"
The Seattle Public Schools website does not list an "Ethnic Studies Advisory Committee."

Wait until they figure out the numbers we use for it are Arabic. They’ll heap “cultural appropriation” to the pile of charges.

My mom used to tell me when I would get frustrated with someone when I was younger, "Never try to rationalize with an irrational person. You're wasting your time."

Great advice from my mom that I have used my whole life.

Seattle is full of these Marxist, racist SJW types. They deserve what they get in that city. It's as bad or worse than San Francisco or LA in its inability to deal with their homeless problems that encourages and enables drug use, disease and petulance.

It's the poor kids who suffer when these "woke" leaders put their ideological agenda before teaching kids basic math skills so they can succeed in life.

It's not the math that is racist. It is these idiots who say it is racist who are the racists.

Spit.... making stuff up is easy and actually fun

In her third year of studies at the University of Houston, Elizabeth Warren finally took a math class required for her major. The Algebra 101 course was mandatory for pre law students.

Although Ms Warren submitted an affidavit claiming that her Native American heritage spiritual philosophy exempted her from such curricula mandates, the dean ruled otherwise stating that most students took the required math course in their freshman year rather than delay to the junior year where there difficult major level 300 course work.

Sources at the university told that the course was a real challenge. Her grade was 67, failing. She was required to take the Algebra 101 course over during the summer session. Sources related the rumor that she obtained a loan to pay for a stolen copy of the Algebra 101 final exam which she passed with grade of 77.
