Sounds like pizzagate
Anti-vaxx disinformation
Anti-education disinformation
Anti-trans moral panic fueled by disinformation
Anti-LGBTQ moral panic fueled by disinformation
Ah yes the tyranny of math
You know what really helps solve these imaginary issues? Blocking traffic in Canadian cities, inconveniencing random people, and committing acts of terrorism. Brilliant plan, fuckwits. If only they cared about real issues as much as their imaginary ones.
Oh and then there’s this gem:
“We have met the enemy and they are us.”

My wife just got back from a literal math conference with fellow math researchers. I asked her what the math agenda is and she said snacks & coffee at 10am because everyone was tired from being up early to make it to the conference.
I’ll let you know if any other nefarious math-based plots are exposed.
Lol my daughter teaches math, I’ll find out what she knows and we can compare notes
I use it professionally and I hate it
Yeah, math leads to logic; it’s a slippery slope.
It is so dumb that I would not even consider this line to be good satire. Yet, here we are, they literally hate math because it leads to logic.
What’s the 2SL part mean?
Had to google it. Evidently, 2-spirits, (native American tradition of non-binary.) The ever-lengthening acronym keeps growing…
Sexuality is complicated, so apparently is making an acronym that includes everything that’s not cis-straight lol
I thought everything else was supposed to be covered under the “Q,” but I guess it’s important to some groups that they have their own letter. So, that makes the long-form 2SLGBTQIA+ now? Ugh, that does not roll off the tongue.
I feel like the sooner society accepts that sexuality is complex the less letters will need to be added so people feel like they’re represented. I’m all for inclusion but I’d rather see a world where 2slgbtq+ is irrelevant and people are just free to be who they want to be, whatever letter that is
This is what I’m hoping for in my lifetime. It’s hard to explain but I want healthy sexuality to be so mainstream, and so socially acceptable that it’s boring. That it doesn’t need to be the focal point of a show or a movie or a book or whatever. That people can just be people and we don’t need token characters at all. I want it to be so normal that it’s boring.
Pretty much. At this stage, I don’t want anyone to feel left out, but after a certain point, trying to define more points on the spectrum of human gender expression and sexuality gets into diminishing returns. Even with the traditional colours of the rainbow, where does blue end and indigo begin? The labels exist to make it easier for people to talk about things and describe the world around us. Unless there is some specific nuance someone is trying to capture, LGBTQ+ should get the point across with the Q and the +. Technically, I think you could get the point across in most use cases with something more succinct than that, but that seems to be what has been established.
Still, I can totally get that someone can feel left out being lumped into the +, so individual use will and should vary. I still rail against the inefficiencies of common language though. The concept is simple, people who aren’t in the big main hetero & cis sections of the spectrum.
Amen, when one day sexual preferences are as political as ice cream preferences we will have reached equality.
Q is queer or questioning, depending on who you ask. Everyone not in the listed letters is covered under the +.
You know, I’ve always wondered if there’s any animosity from the other groups since they get two letters but everyone else only gets one…
The theories and basis are always the same for centuries. They only wrapped them with a new tinfoil.
I can “understand” what they dislike about everything here except for … math? Like, what? What could anyone possibly have against math?
It’s those fuckin’ numbers, man! I keep trying to make them do what I say, but they keep responding rationally. I want 2+2 to equal 5, but they won’t fuckin’ listen!
