      “Not on my watch! We’re going back to Roman numerals and ditching the Gregorian calendar while we’re at it!”

      omg – 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 – what do these mean? Think about the children people.

      In right wingers minds Arabic = evil. They don’t know their history despite all their talk of going back to some perfect era that never actually existed. They will never be aware of how much impact the Islamic golden age had on modern society. It’s sad really, being so reactionary must be exhausting.

      Lol, this shit’s gonna unravel Laura Loomer. It’s her first factoid towards deradicalization.

      I don’t know what makes it more sad, the fact that they simply don’t know basic elementary school stuff, or the fact that they don’t realize that this exact joke about them has been going on for over a decade.

      Ima be honest. I didn’t know that the numbers everyone uses came from Arabic until I watched game changer on dropout.tv

      I was probably 28 at the time… I might be autistic.

      I just got into a big argument with someone claiming “oh they mean *eastern arabic* — I know we use *western arabic*. They’re different. Do your research 💅”

      This is literally a plot line of veep. Jonah starts getting mad schools are teaching “Muslim math”

      (me looking at the screengrab of this reply)

      You know things are bad when you can’t tell if this is real or a joke.

      Dear God. It’s real. Isn’t it?

      It would be great if carried an instantaneous tool to fact check information before commenting on it. These folks are a special level of idiocy.

      This is one of the oldest conservative bait jokes out there. Incredible they haven’t figured it out yet.

    22. Luvdoves101 on

      I am shocked that someone from the SAW movies couldn’t count how many movies they made.

      That’s why he said he loved the uneducated and that’s also why Republicans have been fighting against Education for decades now.

      I really can’t stand how starting a tweet with “BREAKING:” is all you need to be considered a semi “valid news source” worthy of responses.

    26. KyZei15 on

      There’s literally a VEEP episode about this. Jonah campaigns on getting terrorist math out of our schools.

    31. danjpn on

      You’d be surprised but most people can’t tell left and right.
      Not justifying her lack of knowledge, it’s on is for choosing idiots to manage is

    32. mrpickleby on

      This joke has been trolling conservatives since 2001. They’re still that dumb.

      Of course, they bought into trickle-down since Reagan, so they really are a special kind of stupid.

    34. Odonata523 on

      Wait until they hear that Sesame Street taught Arabic numerals to Gen X when WE were kids.
      1 2 3, 4, 5, 6 7 8 9, 10, 11, 12!

      I understand he’s going to allow schools to continue using dihydrogen monoxide in every single school, kindergarten through 12th grade, despite the fact that it is known to have killed children in the past.
