You guys enabling this have no idea what you are bringing upon yourself and to your society. I am done trying...learn the hard way...ignore the people that have been through this and faced life and death situations and know exactly what this is, where it leads and are now trying to warn you.

Eventually these people will give up and let you learn the hard way what this means for your society. The lights are dimming and you guys keep enabling this.

I hope this means that 2 + 2 is still 4 but that they will not just mention people like Pythagoras but also non-Europeans who contributed to mathematics.

Its dennis prager so i get sceptical, however, what's in the text is pretty batshit. If you know science you know it was not maths that caused /justified racism, it was the misuse of it. There are some cultural norms in language that might help learn maths (like languages that translate to "twenty and 1" vs twentyone. But it doesn't change the basic functions (addition, subtraction, etc etc).

Huh?......

Only if the student feels that it is a non binary gender neutral safe space mathematical question. One has to now , feel that a #2 indeed Identifies as that numeric number and just not a label that white mathematicians named it. The student must take many factors into consideration before just assuming 2+2=4 just because society says it adds up.

There’s a saying; “a rising tide lifts all boats”.
It’s simplistic. It’s truthful. But it defies the ideology pushed by critical race theory, socialist agenda, or the indoctrination within the education system.

Thr failures within the math systems are a direct result of the poor quality of educators. Yes there absolutely is a classism that denotes educational successes. Poorer kids typically get poorer grades, richer kids get better grades. Racial correlation just gives a talking point for white people to feign concern - and find a new way to institutionalize away of leveling the playing field, in a manner that actually furthers the divide. Perhaps it’s also of no surprise, “poorer” schools usually end up with poorer teachers - not that we can prove it since the unions have fought against standardized testing for educators

They’re no longer trying to raise the tide, but rather sink all the boats to create equality.

I’ve removed my child from the public education system because of the tone and questionable material they were being taught. It’s a considerable expense, but the difference is glaringly obvious.

Fucking ridiculous. If anything mathematics, in its purest form, could care less about your race, ethnicity or gender. They are trying to turn it into another social science. I can't believe our PC government in Ontario is embracing this nonsense. Shameful.

Truth, although I disagree with trying to create equality part. They decide who needs equality based on a particular agenda and mindset. This is fabricated equality, like fabricated consent but now it’s fabricating dissent.

I have seen it many time. Kids born here are being systematically disadvantaged. I seen a Canadian born mother with young kids in a shelter, can’t get rent because nobody will rent to her because fear of not being able to evict and now close to ending up on the street because the shelter gave her an ultimatum. But immigrants get all this social support for jobs, shelter, education, etc...and Canadian born people struggling. Yup this government and proposed system makes total sense.

what's happening with the math is many kids born here won’t know how to actually do math. When they get to university many will fail and drop out. Immigrants from many countries will be at an advantage because their countries are providing proper education for the kids to think logically, critically and know how to perform and understand maths and sciences. Kids born here will be too indoctrinated, brainwashed and fragile to do anything but play victim and cry how bad everyone and everything is.

Harrison Bergeron is a 1995 made-for-television movie based on a Kurt Vonnegut short story.

" In the year 2081, the 211th, 212th, and 213th amendments to the Constitution dictate that all Americans are fully equal and not allowed to be smarter, better-looking, or more physically able than anyone else. The Handicapper General's agents enforce the equality laws, forcing citizens to wear "handicaps": masks for those who are too beautiful, loud radios that disrupt thoughts inside the ears of intelligent people, and heavy weights for the strong or athletic".

This plays to the advantage of the schools who prefer international students. Their tuition is much higher, and they’re more likely to utilize on-campus housing and services. It’s win-win for the untouchable educators.

That's what I read from it. The concept of zero doesn't change in the mechanics of arithmetic and number systems, but they can go over that lacking a zero caused issues such that it was independently developed in various societies. Objective vs subjective topics.

The Muslim Arabs gave us zero!!! And algebra!!! We gotta ban using both!! We need Christian zeros and maths!

We have real numbers and imaginary numbers, will we now need to learn woke numbers?
