News from Canada:

Two plus two no longer equals four, according to members of the Ontario Mathematics Coordinators Association (OMCA), who consider the equation to be a white-supremacist dog whistle instead of a basic mathematical truth.

According to a webinar created by OMCA president Jason To, proponents of math’s political neutrality who use the phrasing “2 + 2 = 4” are engaged in an act of “Covert White Supremacy.”

Clown world! Sadly I was not able to find said presentation, if somebody knows it, I'd appreciate the link.

My passion for equity and anti-racism led me to co-author Addressing Anti-Asian Racism: A Resource for Educators (https://www.etfo.ca/BuildingAJustSociety/EquityResources/Pages/Anti-AsianRacism.aspx), which provides a historical context for anti-Asian racism, the need to work in allyship to dismantle anti-Black and anti-Indigenous racism by tackling white supremacy, and gives teachers and principals practical steps to make anti-oppressive educational spaces.


(yes, my proficiency in a 25+ year-old video game is an integral part of my identity).
Why does that not surprise me?

Woke faggot. What a long winded article of bullshit. Dumb and dumber is the result.

True! What's even worse: This guy is an Asian! Actually, in theory, I gave up asking what went wrong a long time ago, but in this case: What on earth is the idiot thinking?

Having taught math a few years back, I've followed curriculum developments in places like Ontario. There are familiar patterns with other filthy, woke cesspools like Kommifornia. All of them take their lead from the demonRATS who vilify all things conservative and anything that proves their pet apes to be the inferior sub-specie they are.

4 years ago there was a movement in KommiFornia mathematics curricula development circles that allowed for wrong answers in Mathematics. This is mirrored in what is documented here, above, from Ontario... 2 + 2 does not necessarily have to equal 4. There's lots of pedagogical bullshit wrapped around this absurdity, but what it comes down to is that as long as the monkeys understand that there are 'more' after an addition function, the answer can be considered correct. Note that in answering addition problems using negative numbers, there must be an acknowledgement that there are 'Less'.... Essentially, the chimps have to understand that the proper movement along a number line is a function of mechanics/signage of the problem.

Using the above example from Ontario, 2 + 2 = anything more than 2 would be considered correct. Why? Any such answer would be moving to the right on a given number line from the starting point '2'.

It's patently disgusting. Further, I saw no differentiation between the filthy little monkeys being able to figure out that there are 'more or less' as an answer, and those who are able to derive a traditionally correct answer.

Ya just can't believe it..........

From "Racial Differences in Morality and Abstract Thinking", by Gedaliah Braun
My first inklings about what may be a deficiency in abstract thinking came from what I began to learn about African languages. In a conversation with students in Nigeria I asked how you would say that a coconut is about halfway up the tree in their local language. “You can’t say that,” they explained. “All you can say is that it is ‘up’.” “How about right at the top?” “Nope; just ‘up’.” In other words, there appeared to be no way to express gradations.

Mathematics and maintenance

I quote from an article in the South African press about the problems blacks have with mathematics:

[Xhosa] is a language where polygon and plane have the same definition . . . where concepts like triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon are defined by only one word. (“Finding New Languages for Maths and Science,” Star [Johannesburg], July 24, 2002, p. 8.)

More accurately, these concepts simply do not exist in Xhosa, which, along with Zulu, is one of the two most widely spoken languages in South Africa. In America, blacks are said to have a “tendency to approximate space, numbers and time instead of aiming for complete accuracy.” (Star, June 8, 1988, p.10.) In other words, they are also poor at math. Notice the identical triumvirate — space, numbers, and time. Is it just a coincidence that these three highly abstract concepts are the ones with which blacks — everywhere — seem to have such difficulties?

The entry in the Zulu dictionary for “number,” by the way — ningi — means “numerous,” which is not at all the same as the concept of number. It is clear, therefore, that there is no concept of number in Zulu.

Also 'just a coincidence'.. is the fact that these concepts are acted on in the prefrontal cortex... The exact part of the brain in which the nigger is deficient...

Exactly, you can't believe it! Whatever the shitlets (or any other "discriminated" group) doesn't understand (or refuses to learn), has to go.

Sadly, it's the same over here: For example, AC technology used to be part of physics class in high school. I was taught AC circuits, pointer diagrams, complex numbers, oscillating circuits, etc. Today, energy supply in schools is just empty drivel, and complex numbers aren't a part of the curriculum anymore. Instead, children get taught the feminist version of math&physics: "green" energy is good, because it "feels good", the fundamentals are bad, because that's "old white male" stuff. Therefore, the tools to check if something works or not aren't taught anymore. Dumbing down to the 10th degree! Sadly, most politicians over here already reached that state of dumbness. (Especially in Germany. I won't go into the details here, because that makes me so mad that I would just get a heart attack.)
