The title of the full doc is Math Ethnic Studies framework.
In that context, there is actually a lot of good stuff in there behind the Leninist rhetoric.
It is about math in society, rather than math itself.
Big difference.
Hate the Leninist rhetoric tho.

That’s the opposite of the poison pill. Salting the minefield.

I held off opining on implementation since I don't have the context. But education has a horrible record on implementation, especially in math.
And it feels like the Leninist rhetoric aims for bad implementation. Actually it verges on Stalinist.

Calling it bad implementation is misleading because it gives them the benefit of doubt that it might be incompetence rather than malice,
No. It’s good implementation. Of a malicious policy to seek political power by sacrificing the well-being of the supposed beneficiaries.

Well, the incompetence I see is in thinking. The malice I see is in an implicit demand to accept their framing. I see both with no doubt.
It doesn't keep me from seeing real issues they want to address. But I guess we could look at those as the bait on the hook.
