Sharia Math

Math problems that directly or indirectly leverage on dozens of man-made religious rules, which often discriminate against women and girls, that dictate how faithful Mohammedans ought to live among “infidels,” especially if they are the minority in the population.
Radical Islamist groups want certain math topics like percentages, probability, and statistics to be banned from a sharia math curriculum, because they promote interest rate earnings, unhealthy lifestyles, or gambling, which could lead students into unwholesome activities or vice, thus compromising their faith.

Naughtical

Saying no to almost anything, or giving zero answers to most questions—when someone is afraid of giving his views on most issues lest he might be taken advantage of by others.

Covid-19 Is a Wicked Problem

When no superpower or developed country alone is able or capable of solving the global coronavirus crisis, whose solution requires the knowhow of both friendly and unfriendly nations.
With Beijing’s initial cover-ups and President Trump’s recurring lies and conspiracies on the coronavirus while in office, the world, which recognizes that Covid-19 is a wicked problem, is skeptical that these two superpowers could put aside their differences to fight the pandemic.

T₀

Read as Trump’s naught or reproduction number. The total number of people Donald J. Trump had infected and is likely to infect in coming days and weeks, because he selfishly and vaingloriously refuses to protect others by wearing a face mask and to isolate himself, when he is still not corona-free and is contagious to others.
Based on media reports, the White House superspreader’s T₀ among his entourage has so far been no fewer than a dozen victims.

Kim Jong-un

The world’s most noteworthy dictator who is forever surrounded by a cadre of serious-looking note-takers whenever he goes around the country, who wants to appear like the most caring leader ready to give a listening ear to his starving-looking or undernourished people.
Imagine Earth being a politically apathetic planet sans rogue leaders like Kim Jong-un, Donald J. Trump, and Vladimir Putin.

Diversity

A politically correct word that means that white privilege ought to take a back seat, although it is unlikely to happen as long as white racists and supremacists are allowed to roam the White House, the judiciary, the police, or the stock exchange.
Lots of white CEOs, governors, and mayors talk powerfully about diversity, but their walks seldom follow their talks.
