The extension of historical‑dialectical method to the exact sciences—mathematics, statistics, computer science, and formal logic. It challenges the view that these fields are purely ahistorical and context‑free, showing how they have been shaped by material needs (e.g., calculus from navigation and ballistics) and how internal contradictions (e.g., set theory paradoxes, incompleteness theorems) have driven foundational debates. It also examines how exact sciences are used ideologically (e.g., statistics in racial science) and how their abstract categories relate to concrete social relations.

Historical-Dialectical Exact Sciences Example: “Historical‑dialectical exact sciences examine how the real numbers were developed in response to 19th‑century analysis, and how contradictions in set theory led to multiple alternative foundations—each with different philosophical and practical implications.”

EBK

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).

Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Blexas

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.

Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Ratfucker

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.

Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
