F-Math

Short for “f*#*ing or fabricated math.” Fake numbers used by Donald J. Trump’s dubious lawyers to file his frivolous lawsuits, who claimed with zero proof that the ballot votes in those states where he lost were fraudulent.
The President-Loser refuses to concede defeat to the President-Elect, and wants to use f-math to enrage and encourage his diehard supporters to hold public protests nationwide, which would cast doubt on the legitimacy of the 46th President of the United States.

Lies, Damn Lies, and Trump’s Lies

When God’s “anointed” political savior of millions of white blue-collar workers and hundreds of thousands of white evangelicals says that two and two are five, there are no reasons why his diehard supporters should doubt or question about his brand of political math—when real statistics in politics are often concealed or concocted to boost the politician’s odds of winning an election or reelection.
For decades, it’s about “lies, damn lies, and statistics”; today, in an age of Trumpism, the new mantra for dishonesty is “lies, damn lies, and Trump’s lies.”

Covid-🦇

When bats are believed to be the vector of the coronavirus to humans, which was first detected in a Wuhan lab in China, until a cover-up was no longer possible as whistleblowers risked their lives to report the rising number of infected and dead people to the outside world.
Fake leaders around the world never fail to scapegoat Covid-🦇 to rationalize the high number of infections and deaths in their own countries rather than because of their ineptitude or poor leadership in containing the pandemic crisis.

Get Your Math Jab!

When educators worldwide join forces to pose grades pre-K–12 Covid-19-related math questions, and to encourage students to have a shot at them, which aims at honing their problem solving skills and protecting them against illogical or irrational thinking.
With millions of people presently being vaccinated against COVID-19, the time couldn’t be more apt during this pandemic for math teachers and homeschoolers to promote the “Get Your Math Jab!” slogan to their students and children.

Singapore Covidoid

A humanoid robot that unprovenly supplies the daily random numbers of infections and deaths via the Ministry of Health (MOH) to the mainstream media, especially now that the majority of the population view each infection as a mere statistic, because it no longer matters to them whether it is a few tens or a few ten thousands.
Since Singapore started registering daily five-digit infections, to give locals the illusion that the infections data are meticulously collected from thousands of doctors islandwide, and to cut down on manpower, the authorities had apparently tasked a Singapore covidoid to spy on the population’s social media posts and tweets and pseudo-encrypted SMSes to formulate a daily figure on both infection and mortality cases.

Mathematical Masochism

When math educators want to push themselves to the limit, by being the best in their category or field, where they are willing to take enormous risks and bear the pain to be rewarded.
Recipients of the Fields medal—the mathematical equivalent of the “Nobel Prize In Mathematics”—have a penchant for mathematical masochism in order to stand out from the crowd, because these “extreme mathematicians” know that “no pain, no gain.”
