Every example they give is brain dead and doesn't fit their own narrative. 2 apples plus 2 oranges doesn't equal 4 apples. Correct, but it does equal 4 pieces of fruit.
It's a troll. Side note, I'm actually very impressed with the ratios here. Shows that actual patriots use the site. I was on a stickied thread yesterday and the top comment had like 800+ upvotes and only 2 downvotes.
It literally is just that. I have some lefty friends and all they actually argue is rhetoric.
There is no substance to their anti-Trump opinions too, it's "He SaId GrAb HeR bY tHe PuSsY!" while ignoring that Joe Biden raped someone by literally grabbing her pussy.
They still bring this up as their main argument today...
Then they pivot to how Trump tweets.
They have nothing to complain about other than "words hurt meeeeeeeee!"
The point is this: 10(base4) == 4(base10) == 100(base2) == 11(base3) == ||||(base1). They're all the same equation. And none of those will ever give you a way to come up with the value 5
It's brainwashing. It's not encouraging people to think more deeply, it's encouraging people to abandon basic truths they "think" they know for the purpose of making them more susceptible to influence.
2 + 2 = 10 in base 4 is an exercise in questioning assumptions and clarifying your communication. It's possible to say the same thing in two different ways that appear contradictory that express the same truth, but that's not what academia is doing. Academia and the media are attempting mass reprogramming and it's obvious.
The number ‘1’ kind of looks like a penis so it must mean hetero-patriarchy oppression against minorities. I made that up, but that’s literally the depth of their argument.
In reality they think if mathematical concepts were developed in a non-white culture, even with different symbology, the end results would also be completely different; the actual meaning, and then more equitable social outcomes follow from that
Ultimately, like in 1984, if they can get you to accept that 2+2=5 then they can get you to accept pretty much any ‘truth’ that they put out as propaganda in order to achieve total societal control.
these symbols CAN be redefined. the question is SHOULD they be redefined?
WHY? we should have a very good reason if we decide to do this. That very good reason had better be something amazing. There had better be some actual insight we didn't have before this redefinition that is impossible without it. But, if this redefinition were necessary, then it would also be complete. if we redefine these symbols, we should have a one to one mapping to their 'old' meaning. But, if we have that our amazing proof should also work with those old symbols.
TLDR;
math is hard enough to discuss as it is. redefining everything for shits and giggles isn't helping anything.
"If you have two factories each with two working machines and the pieces to build half a machine and combine them together you got 5 machines"
So the parts from two companies match? Thank god for the creation of an assembly line to make such perfect parts, can't wait for that to be considered white supremacy. Also each factory doesnt have just 2 machines they have two and a half machines. Fractions have been around since ancient Egypt, might as well use them.
This is literally out of 1984. Sometimes 2+2=5, and sometimes it is 3.
Winston even says something along the lines of "Freedom is the freedom to say that 2+2=4. If that is granted, everything else follows." I.e., the freedom to tell the truth. Well, we see how that is faring in society these days.
Water tension can make it more than a gallon of water held. That's actually the point the math or making, and it's quite real and accurate. It's not the common use of it, but is not stupid or fake.
First get rid of absolute truth (GOD), then you are free to get rid of mathematical truth. Then truth is a matter of opinion and whips around like a flag in the wind.
In fact, it can and does for high values of 2 in specific situations. It's.... Complicated, but it stems from how you prove "1" exists in the first place, and is beyond my education on it. This was a "trap" laid to catch people unaware of high level science and math. What they're saying is technically true but not commonly applied.
Someone learned different bases of numbers and thinks their smart and edgy. No one cares, anywhere on earth, if you type 2 + 2, you mean base 10 all the way down to native code on computers which do the base 2 / 16 conversion via firmware, and you would use hex or bits then, not numeric. The entire point of this is flawed. Cool, you understand number systems, get off my lawn.
By learning the high level math, which is quite real, which they are referencing. They are technically quite right in specific situations, and they are using a bad analogy to explain it.
The deconstruction and denial of objective truth is their means of establishing control, it allows them to change the truth on a whim, and prevent us from challenging them, especially if the very language you have is redefined as innately evil.
These people are dangerous, mostly to us, less so to themselves.
2+2=4 is based on the understanding that you are adding identical things.
They use arguments like "2 apples + 2 oranges doesn't equal 4 apples" NO SHIT FUCKHEAD
The other one is arguing 2 factories + 2 factories = 5 because the factories contain the materials to make 5 machines. Reminds me of the Idiocracy scene where NotSure is asked If you have one bucket with 2 gallons and another bucket with 3 gallons, how many....buckets do you have?"
And he correctly answered "TWO" because ONE BUCKET plus ONE BUCKET equals two. Not 5 gallons.
This is why homeschooling our kids is the way of the future.
Soon, neighborhoods will band together and create our own schools.
Hopefully, the vouchers Devos has been talking about for 4 years becomes a reality. Then each neighborhood can hire a few teachers based upon their own criteria and know exactly what is being taught to kids.
Then, kids can go to community colleges halfway through highschool and not spend so much time in indoctrination centers.
I can see the plan unfolding. I just hope it becomes a reality.
People who advocate for this kind of insanity need to be purged. We are welllllllllll past shaming only. We need to cull these idiots from the gene pool.
If they're "deconstructing" hard mathematical values the level of devastation to society will be catastrophic. Can't wait to see the skyscrapers, bridges, convention centers, and other construction projects collapse horribly in their world.
And that's how you get the FIU bridge collapse and the 737 MAX.
That's how a lot of welding goes though....
Thank God not with the welders I know.
Well, are they doing structural buildings or fabricating go karts because it does make a difference.
Pipelines.
Edit: and one formally doing underwater oil industry structures.
It sparks joy!
I love that one guy's example that's just "if one factory has 2 machines but parts to make a third, and the other factory has the same, then 2+2=5".
No dipshit, you just described 2.5+2.5=5
Came here to say this.
Every example they give is brain dead and doesn't fit their own narrative. 2 apples plus 2 oranges doesn't equal 4 apples. Correct, but it does equal 4 pieces of fruit.
They want to argue idiot semantics.
Two apples plus two oranges does not equal four apples. Simplified, it equals two sets of apples and oranges:
2a + 2b = 2(a+b) , where a is an apple, b is an orange, and a != b
Edit: lol someone downvoted this. How do you downvote basic algebra?
It's a troll. Side note, I'm actually very impressed with the ratios here. Shows that actual patriots use the site. I was on a stickied thread yesterday and the top comment had like 800+ upvotes and only 2 downvotes.

But 2 + 2 = 10........................in base 4. Ha ha I got you.
But 10 in base 4 is...4. Yes?
No. In Base 4, you only have three numbers available to make your values: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
Once you hit a total of 4, the next value to the left increases by one.
(assuming base 10 value on the left side being calculated to base 4 on the right)
0 + 1 = 1 base 4 0 + 2 = 2 base 4 0 + 3 = 3 base 4 0 + 4 = 10 base 4 0 + 7 = 13 base 4 0 + 8 = 20 base 4 0 + 12 = 30 base 4 0 + 13 = 31 base 4
0 + 16 = 100 base 4
(I wrote a lot more but decided to stop at this point).
In base four, you only have 0 1 2 3.
In base four, 2 + 2 = 10
In base ten, 2 + 2 = 4
In base two, 10 + 10 = 100
In base three, 2 + 2 = 11
In base one, || + || = ||||
The point is this: 10(base4) == 4(base10) == 100(base2) == 11(base3) == ||||(base1). They're all the same equation. And none of those will ever give you a way to come up with the value 5
All bases are base 10
wrap your noggin around that
it is pretty much semantics,
like you say 2/4 + 2/4 = 1 gallon
& they're like those aren't fourths, they're quarts!
Only the master's tools can deconstruct the master's house.
I was going to say this lol. He doesn't know what a fraction is
They really are stupid.
They just put their thought process on display and it's so telling. This is why they are the way they are.
"depends on context" '2' '4', '+', and '=' PROVIDE THE CONTEXT. It's ARITHMETIC. All those symbols have specific, restricted meaning.
They're acting like these symbols can be used as randomly mutable jargon words. Which, to be fair, is how they act about the rest of language.
Read the whole twitter thread from this lady. She explains why they do this and how it's being used to destroy the country.
It's brainwashing. It's not encouraging people to think more deeply, it's encouraging people to abandon basic truths they "think" they know for the purpose of making them more susceptible to influence.

It’s insane
But I thought critical theory sees only power. How does equity result from a shift in power?
these symbols CAN be redefined. the question is SHOULD they be redefined?

It's not a machine until it's made into a machine. Geeze these people are fools.
"2 apples plus 2 oranges doesn't equal 4 apples. "
I think my brain is bleeding from this one.
(2x+2y) != 4x ... OMG MATH IS RAYCIST!!!
MUH DEFINITIONS AND AXIOMS....
I'm without a doubt several IQ points lower for having read that screenshot...
There’s a reason I removed my kids from public schools..
This is literally out of 1984. Sometimes 2+2=5, and sometimes it is 3.

Thanks, I will check it out. I've been meaning to read more of his essays.
Another excellent dystopian novel, not as well known as 1984, is Koestler's Darkness at Noon.
YES.
Excellent essay that I always suggest to people.
https://www.orwell.ru/library/essays/politics/english/e_polit
It's a good read.
Honk fucking honk.
Never seen a group so dedicated to consistently insisting on moronic, illogical behavior. Other than the mentally ill, of course.
Yep, this is where we are at. I hope my rental income goes up by 25% though.
What is going on here: They're trying to enstupify the youth so they will more readily accept nonsense as truth.
Why are they doing this: Because they are Communists, and since Communism is an objectively bad idea, a person has to be stupid to believe in it.
How can we stop it: By throwing them out of helicopters.
If you have one bucket that holds two gallons and another bucket that holds five gallons. How many buckets do you have?
Water tension can make it more than a gallon of water held. That's actually the point the math or making, and it's quite real and accurate. It's not the common use of it, but is not stupid or fake.
Who said the buckets have water in them?
The math which proves the definition of "1" exists.
Essentially the claim of 2+2=5 entirely depends on them changing rules and definitions until they get to the place that 2+2 does indeed = 5.
What the fuck!
First get rid of absolute truth (GOD), then you are free to get rid of mathematical truth. Then truth is a matter of opinion and whips around like a flag in the wind.
so... exactly like everything else they do? ... see "definition of racism".
As someone said in the tweets, just deconstruct their paycheck and 2+2=4 again all of a sudden.
This is the right answer. Play their stupid games against them to prove that not all interpretations are valid.
2+2 never equals 5.
They are delusional.
In fact, it can and does for high values of 2 in specific situations. It's.... Complicated, but it stems from how you prove "1" exists in the first place, and is beyond my education on it. This was a "trap" laid to catch people unaware of high level science and math. What they're saying is technically true but not commonly applied.
i thought i wasn't that smart, but in comparison to these people i might as well be a God. Fucking clowns the lot of them.
Just wait till the find out about 0 Kelvin, absolute zero. They'll probably call that transphobic or racist.
Someone learned different bases of numbers and thinks their smart and edgy. No one cares, anywhere on earth, if you type 2 + 2, you mean base 10 all the way down to native code on computers which do the base 2 / 16 conversion via firmware, and you would use hex or bits then, not numeric.

Based James Lindsay started this.
Jesus fuck. How do I get off this planet?

Fucking imbeciles.
This is a good HR question to ask any potential candidates to make sure they aren't "woke".
HR Question: What is 2+2?
Normal person: "It is equal to 4"
Woke person: "Well it depends on what context the question is asked in and the various axioms that exist" (or some equivalent "big brain" logic)
These people are literally retarded.
Actually, this is one where they are right.
Wish that we still had people the likes of Einstein and Hawking still around.
Now we have people under 30 obsessed with TikTok and themselves. The future is grim if they take control
Hawking was a pedo. Visited Epstein island and then became a climate warrior shortly after. Hawking was a pedo
News to me, sad really. What could he have done from his chair anyway?
Einstein agreed that 2+2 can equal 5 for high values of 2. I'm not kidding.
Good, these psychotic lefties can get bankrupted by overdraft fees when they completely fail to balance their checkbooks because of this horseshit.
They'll pass a law banning overdraft fees as systemic racism.
Math is racist
Applying postmodernism to mathematics. What could go wrong?
The chicken example. They're describing the Fibonacci Sequence, which requires an algorithm to express. 11235.

If anyone needed re-education camps, it would be Democrats.
Ah Claire. :0)
For me this comes as Four Lights on the Wall.
FOUR
you start losing reality with leftism what else is new

It actually comes it's of the proofs needed to show 1 exists at all. They're quite actuate, though with a very uncommon usage of numbers.
JFK!
Let them try and balance their checkbook.
Sometimes....its best to lay off the pot while on twitter.
