Are you a white cishet male professor of mathematics?

Then you need to read this article and do the right thing.

Not really. It's pretty pathetic.

Why do you hate diversity? Are you some kind of racist bigot?

What in the holy hell was that?

From the comments:
quote:
We need to decouple success in mathematics from IQ. IQ is a social construct that cishet white men devised that defines “intelligence” on the basis of culture. Sadly, there is a direct correlation between high IQ and “earning” a PhD in a STEM discipline, which is all too reflective of how white cishet men have designed disciplinary concepts to reinforce their own power structures. It is fundamentally unfair and marginalizing for IQ tests and mathematics curriculum to be designed around the same white supremacist, cisheteronormative standards, thus marginalizing women of color. What we need isn’t just “fair hiring;” we need a radical reconceptualization of mathematics in a decolonizing framework. Our friends in the fine arts lead the way here. A century ago, white male composers like Beethoven and Mozart were considered mastered, while the authentic cultural expression of nonwhite peoples was denigrated using words I won’t repeat here. The advances of critical theory have helped guide musicians into recognizing that the music of the Bantu people is just as worthy of learning and study as that of any baroque composer…so should we not follow the same lead? Is not our problem is that we have allowed white cishet men (nearly all of whom had utterly disgusting views about race and gender) to define “mathematics,” “logic” and “proof” for us? We should recognize that there are many kinds of math, many kinds of logic, and many kinds of proof, and assemble a new concept of math from the mosaic of cultural expression that humanity affords. It’s time for a new scientific revolution, if you ask me…this one led by the folks shut out of the last one.

I wonder which one of these shiny, low IQ turds will have the mental capability to come up with a new version of math? I'm sure manufacturing and production would be a cornerstone of their utopia. What a bunch of hacks, let them have their time because their light is quickly fading.

I saw hidden figures. They used the same math as the shite lords.

Just think how much faster they could have done the calculations, and what kinds of other breakthroughs would have occurred if they used feminist intersectional decolonizing bantu math?

Nah, I'm Irish.

This cannot be simply laughed away. The absurdity of these ideas is frightening,especially coming from actual academics.
Diversity should not be a goal. Period. It is the antithesis of true equality and true freedom.
Equity and equality are two different things. When the usage of these terms gets interchanged and confused, it is often intentional. In the social justice sense, equity means equal outcomes and quotas. That is practically impossible to achieve if true equality is the goal, which means that all are treated as equals.
It is time that these charlatans get exposed. There must be an organized push back. They own the national narrative.
Let true freedom and equality be your standard, and refuse to accept this victim mentality.

Check your cishet white male privilege shitlord!

Sounds like they are using white cis sithlord math to determine that they aren't equally represented.
