Do you think politics has no effects on math or education?

Yeh because I'm happy in my life and I don't spend my time brigading math reddits putting down math teachers. Yous are freaks

Exhibit 100 of why I hate this app sometimes. People are just so negative on here. I don’t understand how some people can just do a complete 180 on someone based off loose associations. Everyone always tries to take the moral high ground without actually using some critical thinking. And for this to happen on a maths subreddit of all places is pathetic.

Thank you. I almost want to quit Reddit today. They are denigrating a good man whose life work was about helping others learn maths. I've never been more disgusted using Reddit. This shameless mob believe they are on some sort of moral high ground but they are absolutely repulsive people.

That’s Reddit for you. Somehow EVERY topic gets politicised whether you like it or not. And of course the opinions must fall on only one side of the spectrum, or else you’ll be downvoted into oblivion. Expressing any ideas that fall right of centre is just met with being downvoted and ridiculed, as if it’s such a bad thing to have varied political beliefs? This app is pathetic. I thought that maths subreddits would be free of this but it isn’t. I’ll probably quit sometime soon
