Perhaps what really bothers this person is that math can take form in ways she cannot accept: logic, absolutes, immutable outcomes, justice, etc.

Math stands in the way of her desire to alter the truth to whatever reality she *feels* to be just.

I’m hopeful our culture will soon evolve to rewarding such persons so distanced from reality with ridicule, shame and the bonus prize of being ignored.

Carl Sagan warned that the percentage of people who understand the science behind our technology would continue to fall, and that at some point it's going to be felt and it will be ugly.

Think the power grid is going to stay up when all the affirmative action hires running it are guestimating and eyeballing it?

Quite obviously, we’ve hit the point of being so overly sensitive to issues surrounding ‘race’ that EVERYTHING is now racist.

Which means there is no discussion to be had. This isn’t an adult conversation. It cannot go anywhere, it’s just pathetic and juvenile - like trying to argue with a two year old.

said, " 2+2 only = 4 because of “western imperialism.”

This is true if you believe in "Logical positivism." (given most can't "prove" 2+2=4 (you have to prove all other numbers are not))

Georges Sorel the Fascist with Marxist beliefs. Schwartz György George likely call himself George Soros in the honor of Georges Sorel. Sorelianism had a strong understanding of National myth where he didn't believe in science. State-sponsored propaganda utilizing myth was what drove the people.

The bases of why Sorel threw science out the window "Logical Positivism" or "logical empiricism" from William James of Pragmatism

Another Example
“Jim owes me a lot of money” isn’t verifiable because you cannot logically deduce an ought from the fact that you gave Jim money. Also, to “owe” isn’t empirical. It’s just a human convention

The people who say 2 + 2 not = 4, are the same ones who blame Whitey for preventing them from getting a job in engineering.

I bet when she adds zero to ten she gets 10 when I get both ten and one-hundred. She should stripped of her teaching license, made to go back to school as a student in an Asian format school system and then say it is because of Western Imperialism. She wouldn’t last a day.

If we have Arabian numerals like 1, 2, 3 then why don’t the arab countries use these numerals? A: Because they aren’t Arabian and it was a Greek, Dionysus, who documented the Egyptians using Algebra to build the pyramids. But the ejuhmuhcation system will tell you 1,2, 3 are Arabian Numerals, it was Islime that invented Algebra. Got to love revisionist history.

You can use your 2+2=5 math at AASA (Ashanti Aeronautics and Space Administration) and see if you can get a rocket off the ground before it explodes. They knew more math than that when they captured and sold your ancestors to white slave traders.

Hand her a calculator and assuming she is smart enough to use it, she will have her answer.
“What’s a calculator?”

In Stalin’s Russia, propagandist Iakov Guminer told the proles of an “Arithmetic of an alternative plan: 2 + 2 plus the enthusiasm of the workers = 5”...

Must be what she’s getting at...
