@BlueStateBabe: The awful thing is that that's not all that much of a joke anymore.
I've legit seen online, read in journals, and discussed IRL with people that say mathematics is a filthy, exploitative capitalist lie, inherently racist, classist, misogynistic, and... stuff.
These folks, more than a few of who appear to be in academe, though not in mathematics or physics or the hard sciences, say "Big Math" or whatever is oppressive.
I've tried to get the gist, but it makes no sense to me.
