Or rather, math being a social construct is absurd in the same way banning books is? Or that they have any logical connection?
I don't know that he's ever made either of those claims specifically, at least prior to Matt's tweet. Uri Harris wrote the piece that referenced those claims, and I read it as a hand-wavey reference to the extremist fringe

Is math being a social construct an extremist fringe? Am I for defending that? That seems like a bizarre association to make

It depends on what you mean by "social construct," which is why it's fertile ground for an effective motte/bailey. All of reality is and its contents are "socially constructed," given a particular definition for "social construct." You'd have to ask Uri what he meant
