Math


Common meaning:

Using abstract numbers and formulas to calculate a result that typically can be applied to the real world in some form.

Hidden meaning of the Equity religion: 

A subject that promotes tainted Western thinking and generates culturally dependent answers.

Discussion:

The Equityists view mathematics as part of oppressive Western culture, so any answers it provides are culturally dependent and work to support the dominant system.

The Equityists do not believe in universals, so the concept that mathematics is universally true is problematic. In order to try and prove that it is invalid, believers concentrate on the idea that it is an oppressive Western subject, and therefore the answers it generates are wrong.

For now, Equity believers are only calling for other ways of understanding numbers to be considered, but the day will come when they will insist the entire subject needs to be eliminated.

When you connect all knowledge created to particular groups, things get weird fast.
