Is precision and accuracy racist? How about logic and critical thinking?

[shish_kebab]

Fuck yes it's racist. So is fire science. I remember when a fire department back East got sued because they refused to hire the highest ranking test scores from White people. The critic said that because white people scored the highest on the test, the test was obviously racist!

For fuck's sake, it's fire science! Shit is on fire and people need to be rescued and there is a science behind it. But how could that possibly be racist?

Lives are on the line and the retarded liberals want to play games with that.

Guessing DEI hires for air traffic controllers and and assemblers at Boeing has cost lives.

[shish_kebab]

And DEI pilots.

Look at the good point, you can cook a shish-kabob.

I hate to be a bit of a race-realist here, but I think deep down we all know why those that want to claim intellictual abilities are racist... and it's not because their preferred race or group of races are so good at them that it's unfair for all the whites and Asians that could never compete with all those future Doctors and Engineers.

No... we know why they want to dumb everything down just to benefit those that can't keep up with a higher level of learning... their word for it is "equity."

No……. I don’t think teaching algebra is racist. My dad and his family actually excelled at math. My dad was so good at it that he even had to step up and teach the class while he was still a student lol. And let’s not forget Katherine Johnson, the brilliant Black mathematician who helped NASA send astronauts into space and bring them safely back to Earth.…

I think whether someone excels at math has much more to do with things like education, opportunity, how they’re taught, and individual strengths than their race. Math itself isn’t racist.

Stop the world 🌎 I want to get off!!

These people are crazy who believe this crap.

Did you know that watermelon,🍉 are fried chicken 🍗 are racist?🙄

[FreyaRed]

Yes, melanin amount is reverse proportional with comprehension of algebra.

[Sal_Monella]

I think your post wasn't shot down by the robot because it's not good with inference.

[Anonymous]

Yes it is.

[moddy_the_mod]

Of course math is racist. Why would it be anything else?

[Kelly6]

@Sal_Monella

Math is now Racist!! Lol

[Sal_Monella]

There really are activist who think it is. They also think insisting people should be on time or using proper English is racist.

[Kelly6]

@Sal_Monella just WOW.
No words

[Kelly6]

@Sal_Monella
Language thing can/might.
But math 😆

[Sal_Monella]

Even my kin had to be bilingual. Brooklyn patois and mainstream English. And since many of them ran numbers, they had to understand those too.

[KostasKouvalis]

It was invented by a Muslim, so maybe it's cultural appropriation

[zagor]

Where exactly is the source quoting someone as claiming that algebra is racist?

[Anonymous]

To some people the only subject that is not racist is Ebonics.

[Chayce]

Ebonics isn’t a subject in school. Is southern twang a subject?

[Opinion Owner]

@Chayce True, it is not a subject in school because people recognized the idiocy of teaching it. But it WAS a subject that was taught in some places.

[lilBigPotato]

No that doesn't make any sense.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

It's a leftist talking point 🤷‍♂️

Apparently math is racist and a tool of white supremacy (wtf is this?) / Sydney Watson

Much thanks to those EddducatTEd people 🙃

[Chas456]

Math and science are now racist because the wrong color of people are excelling at it.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

@Chas456 exactly right

[Chas456]

@FrodoSkywalker007
I wish I was wrong, but..

[exitseven]

No it is just teaching reality

[FrodoSkywalker007]

Leftists believe so 🤷‍♂️

[Flower7]

No, why would it be?

[shish_kebab]

Because Bill Gates said so.
Seriously!
