Maths is racist! Who knew?

[Duty]

I've already refuted this charge from you that I'm pointing out cultural inferiority when all I'm doing is pointing out the existence of some bad cultural elements. I'll say it again then and please try to remember: "white culture" (notice how I used inverted commas in the post above too because, clue, it's not an immutable or universal (far from it) "culture") with it's endless quest for economic growth, free market capitalism and foreign holidays which is destroying the planet is FAR worse than any "black culture" elements.

[no one]

5 out of every 3 people are prejudiced. It's just basic science.

Those Bad Cultural Elements™ are ubiquitous to american culture, and yet these things we're discussing strongly correlate to race.

You don;t want to believe that you're peddling cultural inferiority because you don't think that you're a racist shit-for-brains. You are, however, peddling cultural inferiority. Do you think that's because you are a racist shit-for-brains..or do you think that something else might have caused you to uncritically suggest this non-starter? Maybe even the same thing that makes you ask questions you don't want answers to, then reject those answers when they're given? Maybe, just maybe, the same thing that compels you to deny reality rather than accept a horrible truth.

OK then, do you admit to arguing that "white culture" is inferior due to the fact it harbours a "plague of systemic racism" then? And if so, how is that any different to arguing that "black culture" is inferior in some regards? Because of the colour of your skin? Now who's a racist shit-for-brains.

I think that America is a racist place in a way that England is not, in the same way that it's a religious place in a way that England is not. Also, we didn't have to have a civil war to decide that slavery was wrong and, well, your country's wounds are sore on this in a way ours aren't.

I'm gonna bow out of this topic here for now, it's taking up far too much of my time and effort and this forum is largely American so we're talking at cross purposes a lot of the time - for instance I haven't visited your country since my early teens and most certainly have NO plans to again due to carbon footprint issues largely, so, yeah, peace out.

Systemic racism isn't white culture. It tends to express itself as whatever the majority ethnicity happens to be. It has it's own regional flavor anywhere you go. That racism is different in the us and the uk is a deepity. There are many ways that our countries express their differences. The thing that's the same everywhere we find systemic racism, are the "attitudes and behaviour that amount to discrimination through prejudice, ignorance, thoughtlessness and racist stereotyping which disadvantage minority ethnic people.". That's one of your silly english kaniggits explaining it, and it's clear that in all of the ways that matter, the US and The UK's racism is exactly alike. Those regional differences that can be accounted for in that yours has a decidedly colonial bent and ours as thoroughly mercantile only add to the irony here. Who do you think we were making all those textiles for, and how exactly did we, The White Man™ get here......

There is no such thing as [insert color here] cultural inferiority. It's not a thing. Probably should have waited till I answered.

Systemic racism isn't "white culture." So you're saying that "black culture" is equally responsible for this "plague of systemic racism?" against black people?! I don't think you can admit to that after the hole you've dug yourself on this. You've painted yourself into a very acute and embarrassing corner here and you need to just go away and have a think. A loooooong think. Bye bye.

[The Grand Nudger]

I'm telling you exactly what I just said. There is no such thing as [insert color here] cultural inferiority. British culture and american culture are not the same culture, and that might help you understand why white culture™ doesn't exist anymore than a white race does.

Rinse and repeat with Black People™...and yes, ofc Black People™ can engage in systemic racism...they're people. They can do anything that people can do.

Seattle School says Maths is racist, used to oppress people of color.

Jesus Christ. Every day, when I thought I've heard it all, up pops another shade of cray I haven't even imagined before. Well done for creativity!
WTF is wrong with America? Seriously. Why is anybody even entertaining this shit?

I give up...

Your source is awful, in that she lies about pretty much everything else (for example she's still trying to make out that there's disagreement within the scientific community over climate change when it's been years when there has been disagreement amongst experts in relevant fields), so why should we assume she's being truthful now?
