When facts are bigoted you can disregard them, perfect for liberals.

If you have one trigglypuff and a 3/4 ton truck overflowing with Twinkies, how many fingers will you lose if you try to eat one?

I tried reading some of this gibberish, seriously it sounds as if the author is just stringing a bunch of SJW buzzwords together.
Here are some examples: "One of the most common themes that emerged in the examples participants identified in their mathematics texts was that of consumerism and acquisitiveness. Dozens of problems were identified that focused on purchasing items, with the stated goal often being to acquire the maximum quantity for minimum cost. The problems were mostly rooted in the perspective of the consumer, serving to normalize and routinize the act of shopping, reinforcing the ideals of capitalism and framing the students as buyers. Some of the items featured in problems included laptops, televisions, jackets, cars, a scooter, and a mildly baffling, no-picture-included problem about a "snowskate.” "A boy asked me what it was, and I had to go Google it,” explained a participant." So using math in order to determine prices and value is racist? Consumerist? Capitalist? I dunno.  Seems like math is needed to determine the price of things. Even fucking communist economies still have stores.And another: "First, the phrasing of the problem states that breakfast consists of options, and that the reader has a choice in what to select for the meal. While this may be the case for some students, there are also many students who received free or reduced price meals at school, and as such, have no choice in what they are served." So using the prices of breakfast items is classist? racist? somethingist? because some people don't have to pay for breakfast and instead get it for free from the tax payers? FUCK!!! THIS MORONS WHOLE FUCKING PREMISE IS BASED ON THE FACT THAT MATH IS RACIST BECAUSE POOR PEOPLE SHOULD GET SHIT FOR FREE AND THEREFORE DON'T NEED TO FIGURE OUT THE VALUSE OF STUFF!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!  fuck   |

How did the world reach this point?
That looks like gibberish. I've seen 2nd graders compose better nonsense. |

Math is hard, therefore it is wrong.
I suck at math because I suck at math.

Do you have access to it? I recall a professor explaining how it works, but no, I do not. IM DK-Prof, he probably knows, but most professors probably wouldn't or simply don't care how often they are cited in academic research. Also, certain "academic" journals are considered absolute trash within actual academia, and typically prohibited by quality professors as academic sources on any subject. ETA: These are the sources that the MSM loves to shill and create panic over, because "academic research/source" sounds awesome in a 15 second sound bite. 
DK-Prof may be able to offer more insight into that as well. |

So "If Peter has 4 Apples and Sally has 2 Apples, how many more apples does Peter have" is just Men teaching kids that Women are supposed to make less wages per hour than Men?

Does this mean I can get my PH.D. if I string some incomprehensible ideas together and just tell others they are too privileged to comprehend it??
