I don't doubt that there's a lot of reaching to get to more extreme outcomes the further left you go, but I want to know what arguments you've seen that come across to you as people trying to make 2+2 equal 5. I can't be bothered to look up the details again, but what I've seen was the standard bullshit. Our mathematics and science standards are rooted in colonialism, imperialism, and white supremacist patriarchy. So, to say 2+2 must equal 5 is oppressive to other ways of knowing. <cite>Esrac posted [p:950931452] in Leftist Tw...
