What about math? You think that has an agenda?
- nonrandomstring 3y agoOf course. Though that could be a bit like saying "What about letters? Do they have an agenda?", because the word "math" isn't particularly precise. Do you mean the practice? The realm of mathematics? The notation? Let's not confuse a representational form with a communicative act. While concepts and symbols might be assumed free of human values, the moment one human communicates them to another, there's an agenda.
