Read the article a little more closely.
Most notably, states like Oregon and Virginia have come under fire for promoting ideas about racist structures in mathematics. One program in particular alleged that White supremacy infiltrated math classrooms and manifested itself in the focus on finding the "right answer." It similarly blamed White supremacy for objectivity as "the belief that there is such a thing as being objective or ‘neutral.'"
Sorry, SG, they're nutcases. Sort of quadratic equations, there is only one right answer in math. Someone who feels that mathematics is discriminatory suffers from severe delusional paranoia.
We've come full circle of stupidity. Remember those copypasta memes about how dumb the Christian right is for being anti-math/anti-science and mocking them how "Al Gebra" is a Muslim group?
It's 2021. The radical leftist want: * Segregation * Censorship * Dumbing down math * Treating people differently in law, employment, education, etc because of the color of their skin
What a time to be alive.

Not really. I think that might have been before I was on the internet ;-) Honest.
Pretty sure you're talking about "Core" education. I'm perfectly fine with an entire generation of utter imbeciles as it gives me job security for as long as I want to work and since I work in software development, "Core" anything isn't going to work well for them.
Your point is correct that those who have actual skills benefit relative to those who are dumbed down, but intentionally inflicting this upon children is criminal IMO. The losers will tend to stir up shit though, and it doesn't bode well for the future of the country to have the next generation hyper focused on which bathroom to use, microaggressioins, queer studies, etc while the Chinese are focusing on real STEM.
It's the idea that politics and laws are made for white people and enforced to oppress everyone else.
And as a native american, I can say that it's absolutely wrong.
