  1. I wonder if the IRS is woke and on board with this yet.

    Moving that pesky little decimal point around on some numbers might be a progressive thing to do. OR NOT. That trick of creating your own numbers might be skin color dependent so some of you guys might still be confined to a world where 2+2=4. Oh how your colonial legacy shows sometimes.

    Great idea! Allow me to contribute the racism_in_mathematics identity equation:
    Code:
    mathematics - racism_in_mathematics = mathematics
    
    or
    Code:
    racism_in_mathematics = 0
    
    :rolleyes:
     


  3. Asians are also minorities and not considered to be white, last I knew.

    Most likely some of them would be surprised to learn that only white folks do math-centric things.
     
  4. "that White supremacy manifests itself in the focus on finding the right answer."

    You've got to be shitting me. People who believe this have a mental disorder.

    I didn't read any of the articles posted here yet, but does anyone remember when the Blacks were going on about "black holes" being racist, because they sucked away all matter into an infinite vortex of nothing, and so that meant black people were inherently bad? Anyone remember? Anyone? Bueller?

    No, but I remember "White Christmas" being racist because snow is white and snow is racist.
