So now math is apparently white supremacist? This is what's being pushed. I just said to my wife that I think it's a punk. There are members of academia purposely writing bullshit papers and putting them up for review just to see if people will fall it. Just to point out that we are collectively losing it. It's no different than the bullshit ebonics theory they tried to push when I was in school. It was bullshit then and it's bullshit now. Math is the universal language. It is the most unbiased scholastic subject race has no bearing on it's mastery. I pulled straight A's all the way through Calculus while in high school. This is what happens when uppity democrats (often white) get useless degrees from liberal arts colleges. They write papers about math being white supremacist. It's an insult.
Say what you will about conservatives. Say that they are racist but it seams that increasingly, as a party, they are saying to minorities, "We welcome you. We believe in you." and the democrats are saying, "You're not good enough. You need us because you are not good enough." My people, my people.... Get off the plantation. I'm not saying go full Candace Owens but start holding liberals accountable for racist bullshit like this.

Further, it should be pointed out - REGARDLESS whether it is accurate or not -
the way that statement above is worded is definitely bigotted.
In fact, even your chose thread headline is bigotted.
And I expect you (or someone else) will post back that "you don't care"
but bigotry is "an insult" -- every bit as much as that to which you claim to be insulted.

The title for for effect, because tox always uses that phrase or something similar. His exact wording escapes me. As far as links, it was from a story on the local news but you're quite versed in the interweb for a man your age. I'm sure if you typed "Math White Supracist" in your search engine of choice something would pop up. I'm going to give Ask Jeeves a try.

Ok. Fair enough.
Done a search and found fractured pieces of story, only on far rightwing websites, referring to ONE professor.
If accurate, then that ONE professor is an AS-HOLE and probably a bigot!
However, just like we should NOT allow the actions of a handful of bad cops to paint *ALL* cops as racist-murderers, which would be the definition of bigotry, we must not also allow the stupid assinine statements of one (or maybe 2 or 3) teachers/professors to paint *ALL* Liberals as having some mental disorder. That would be bigotry, and every bit as bad or perhaps WORSE, than the alleged musings of some dumbass attention-seeker professor.
In effect I am agreeing with you. It's an insult.
But bigotry is worse.
Please, my respected forum colleague, don't go down the same path as Detox with his bigotted "Liberalism is a mental disorder" canard.
It creates the perception that YOU are a bigot like him.....and I don't want to believe that.

And can you point out how exactly anything I said is bigoted? I'm sorry if I offended any useless 17th century women's studies PhDs from Oberlin perusing this site.

It seems like a slow news day follow up of a story from earlier in the year. I hope this it isn't getting much traction but even notions hurt. What notions like this do is tell little black and brown children that they aren't good enough to learn math as it has been taught for thousands of years. (Even though Nigerians excel in STEM subjects) They tried the same thing with ebonics when I was a school age child. It's a crock and stuff like this is usually born from some post graduate paper by some dipshit with a worthless degree, or some tenured member of academia trying to remain relevant.

I don't actually believe all liberals have a mental disorder but there are a lot of harmful theories being proposed by liberal post-grads, professors, etc. And it's getting ridiculous. This is dangerous. These are the people who will be teaching our children, and the people who are teaching the people who will be teaching our children. And there are a lot of scary ideas being floated around. Call tox racist but he's never made such assertions. Quite the contrary. If anything tox is always saying "Black people can be just as successful as anyone else. Here are some example. It starts in the home. It starts with education." He's right. I don't agree with him on everything. And he tends to black and white (no pun intended), he tends to black and white a lot of very nuanced subjects but he's never said black and brown people aren't smart enough to learn math.

Ok. Perhaps.
And if that "math rhetoric" were to actually become a reality in schools (rather than at this point just another rightwing conspiracy theory about what MIGHT happen) then yeah, I would be damn upset too!!
But I am not going to portray ALL, or most, or even a significant percentage of democrats or liberals as holding those same assinine beliefs. That's just wrong. We should hold accountable the specific individuals, only.

This story didn't originate as a right wing conspiracy theory. Those sites have just ran with it. This is really being pushed. How much traction it gets will remain to be seen.

Though let's be fair
a/ not all people preaching these alleged "harmful theories" (in education) are Liberals....nor are all of them Democrats. We should call out those INDIVIDUALS who promote that garbage, sure, but we must resist the bigotry and label them as Dem or Lib or ?? and then hold that entire group accountable for the lunacy of one or two.
b/ "harmful theories" is a subjective term. Now I may even agree with some or all of your points on each separate "harmful theory" but we both must remember that it would still amount to an opinion on the value of those theories. Where you and I might feel righteous, perhaps many others feel the opposite. IOW, it is NOT an objective fact. Mind you, that said, your worries could very well be foretellin and ultimately accurate!! Much like our worries that the Marjorie Taylor Greenes of the GOP are going to take over the party and ultimately seize power - just like Hitler did 90 years ago.
c/ at this point, we must recognize that this is another story, being inflated by rightwingmedia, to sensationalize the warped BS from ONE stupid professor (or two) in order to try and stoke fear and paint the entire liberal/democratic movement in a bad light (bigotry)
"They are coming for you!! OMG! The Liberals are this and the Democrats are that! THEY ALL MEAN TO HURT YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN DELIBERATELY! They are all communist terrorists and pedophiles! BE AFRAID OF ALL LIBERALS AND DEMOCRATS!!! "
That's the crux of what I hear bleeting frequently (not all the time, but a LOT!) from FOX NEWS, OAN and partisan rightwing websites -- like the ones sundance likes to quote from.

Ok.
And from my search, the story is being "pushed" by the rightwing PARTISAN media for any and all effect they can get to stoke outrage and/or fear.
Just last week the same effing websites and cable news channels and dumbphuck GOP politicians were running profusely with the story that Joe Biden was going to STEAL everybody's hamburgers.
Turns out the story was a bigass "nothing-burger" LOL

I’m old enough to remember when a New Jersey professor suggested on a TV program that racism and President Donald Trump’s policies are responsible for black female obesity.
Rutgers University women’s and gender studies professor Brittney Cooper made the argument during an appearance on “Black Women OWN the Conversation” on the Oprah Winfrey Network.

If you say that liberals have a mental disorder I will cry in my soup I also reserve the right to call trump supporters Nazi, fascist, racists liberal logic
most trump supporters ARE supporting fascism and most are racist.
Therefore saying so is accurate. < ----- MODERATE logic.
"Liberalism is a mental disorder" = effing bigotry!

You probably can’t see it because you suffer from the mental disorder. Unfortunately that’s how most mental disorders work. Hopefully you’ll get some help. The first step is admitting that you have a problem. I wish you luck in your recovery
Coming from an anti-American 9/11 denialist, expect nothing more than more insults.
