…so I told that dumbass (most people don’t know there’s a B in dumb) kindergarten teacher: “I don’t need to learn no alphabet. The only letters I need to know are U, S, and A!”

“There’s 500 million Arabs in the world, and yet they don’t produce science, they don’t win the Nobel Prize, they don’t win the Fields prize, they don’t win the Wolf Prize, they don’t produce literature,” the US health chief said.
Arabs have won all those prizes. Peter Hotez, who is a professor at the Baylor College of Medicine and specializes in vaccine development and tropical medicine, said his late colleague, Nobel Prize winner Ahmed Zewail, who was Arab and died in 2016, “would disagree” with the US health chief’s comments.
10 daysBold of him to being up the Nobel Prize. When his boss hears that term he instantly throws a full-on toddler hissy fit.

Since 2015 we don’t hide our racism anymore! I mean of course we say we aren’t racist, but every other thing is okay to say.

I might use a hard R, but at least I’m not racist …
/s cause satire isn’t real anymore.
Uh what? lol.
Apparently, this satirical news: Mamdani to introduce rules requiring schools to teach ‘Arabic numerals’ pissed a bunch of people off.
It’s ridiculous, obviously, but some people are far more racist than rational.
Where the absolute blue fuck do these people think mathematics came from? I’ll wait.

Love when the cult of the antivaxxed hold this guy up as their best and brightest, just the dumb leading the dumber.
So… algebra, alchemy, algorithms, all that cool stuff that kind of formed the building blocks of modern science and math are just… what, fantasy concepts?

Fuck you. I can easily name Al-Battani who’s work contributed to the development of science in the 10th century.
EDIT: Yes, I can only name them thanks to Star Trek, but the point stands!

Careful, they have labeled Al-gebra a terrorist organization.
The concept of zero is a woke mind virus.
If someone wants to show how wrong he is about Arabs not winning Nobel prizes it’s better to name modern day Arab Nobel prize laureates like Ahmed Hassan Zewail, Naguib Mahfouz or Omar Mwannes Yaghi than to talk about Arabic numerals or algebra. Just saying.

Its really surprising to hear him say that, considering how deep his boss is in the pockets of the Saudi Royal family…
