Pew Research Center:
<Highly educated adults – particularly those who have attended graduate school – are far more likely than those with less education to take predominantly liberal positions across a range of political values. And these differences have increased over the past two decades.

Variability Hypothesis:
<The variability hypothesis, also known as the greater male variability hypothesis, is the hypothesis that human males generally display greater variability in traits than human females do [including cognition].

Supporting Article 1:
<In the majority of countries, male variability is higher than female variability in both reading and math.
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1162573

Supporting Article 2:
<Males are more variable on most measures of quantitative and visuospatial ability, which necessarily results in more males at both high- and low-ability extremes

In addition to the raised points on autism score, big 5 personality traits have good correlations: low openness, mid-high conscientiousness (rule following), low agreeableness, generally low neuroticism = rightoid traits, opposite profile = leftist traits.

I'm getting an associates at a community college since it's cheaper to do general education courses here than at a university. I want to major in a math subject for my bachelors but am pretty bad at math.

seems I'm a few weeks late as per usual with /leftypol/'s current activity, but as an actual PhD(c) applied math I'm compelled to post anyway. also the two serious recs here are hilariously bad or unfit

I would brush up on basic knowledge of algebra and trigonometry/geometry, basically HS math or what you might see as "pre-calculus" or "pre-algebra" in college syllabi. Then if you're majoring in a math-heavy subject you'll want to learn calculus, linear algebra, maybe discrete math, maybe probability and statistics.

Regarding sources I'll recommend Paul's Online Math Notes and Prof. Leonard's lectures:
https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu
https://www.youtube.com/@ProfessorLeonard/courses
Another decent resource for very basic stuff is Khan Academy if you like their format. Also check out the OSSU repo, which is mostly a list of links to relevant online courses: https://github.com/ossu/math

What motivates you about math? Do you specifically want to major in math (or applied math) or do you mean another STEM major, perhaps CS or some kind of engineering?

I know Badiou is sort of one but are there others?

The 19th century Victorian English term for a military operative specializing in scenarios logic was a "necromancer"; capable of taking a treaty, military written or recorded work, or biography or autobiography, and placing it into an intelligence tactic; either interpersonally, or in a field foot play through a handler.

A woman, if British intelligence, is unable to separate the child, from the womb.

Not normally a problem, a "dean", if outside of country under FBI code, a "don"; however, if French lingusitics applied, then the same role as the mother in a male term of English linguistics; a terminology's language, outside of proper term of singular Yiddish. Instead relying on compound words, modified terms of nomenclature with flaws assumed per development and hence courts outside patent (Hebrew manuals, recognition without "God"; the monastic trade on corporate or collegiate life of family).

I convinced a quite a big amount of Muslim friends and even Elder Muslim folks in my community that Capitalism is Haram with one simple argument: Usury is a sin under the the rule of "Riba" being Haram, literally meaning "infinite" or "excess" in Arabic, due to financial exploitation and taking advantage of the person.

Simple

>Infinite growth is a sin requires financial exploitation, and making money off of being idle

>Capitalism's main ethos is infinite profit extraction
>They connect the dots

This opens them up to other arguments like "Infinite growth is impossible on a planet with finite resources" and other things like excess, indulgence and things Capitalists encourage like gambling being a sin (Prediction markets are awful)

I then explain it's like pork, you can eat pork or drink alcohol if you need to if there is nothing else to eat or you need to numb pain under the Islamic law of Rukhsah (Exemptions out of health or other necessities) and we are forced to participate in it order to survive

This easily convinces a lot of Muslims, even ones I meet in the global south who are otherwise very conservative and even if I can't make them fully woke or whatever it's good to have people wake up to some injustice at least. Class interests come first

The main thing I'm asking is if anyone knows any similar works on Socialism from an Islamic perspective using this same logic or at least pre-modern Islamic works that meet the base principles of socialism and wants to discuss this further

the key is to not simply be against usury, but also against profit, rent, and wages. Communism seeks to abolish the wages system. profit, interest, rent, and wages are all part of the system of exploitation.

>>25823
Education in general

>>25821
Western style higher education, especially STEM fields, embody the epistemology and ideology of secularism and capitalism. You'll notice that most chuds and neo stalinists are people from STEM backgrounds i.e. people who believe we can rationally predict and plan all human affairs with statistics, the scientific method etc.

Who did it? Soviets? Nazis?
Why were the polish officers killed? What was the motive for the massacre? Were they preparing a revolt?

Are the documents fake? Whose investigations are trustworthy?

You argue in bad faith and use a false narrative to try and claim another false narrative, and cry about "le evul Stalin/Beria/tankeez" in the mean time. I'd suggest going to >>>/leftypol/ or better yet reddit, those liberal echo-chambers are more your speed.

People have discussed Katyn and the debate of it being the NKVD or not before, they also discussed Soviet deportations before, this is acceptable discourse. You are engaging in dishonest fallacies, putting a slight spin on old Cold War myths and exaggerations.

This is a pretty good examination of it all, It's important to note though that most Communists are able to admit mistakes and excesses commited by Socialist nations. I don't doubt that when the Soviet Union started taking in Polish officers (Most of who fought in the Polish-Soviet war) they treated them pretty badly, but the idea they spread is that one executioner (Vasily Blokhin) executed tens of thousands of Poles by himself right next to Smolensk (A city of at least a hundred thousand and all with German guns and bullets) and nobody knew till the Nazis came by is just insane.

Relevant to the thread: Yuri Muhin's Катынская Подлость is a video version of his book Антироссийская Подлость: Расследование фальсификации катынского дела Польшей и Генеральной прокуратурой России с целью разжечь ненависть поляков к русским. — М.: Крымский мост-9Д, Форум, 2003. — 762 с.

The Book and film are a detailed, section by section dissection of Katyn myths and the context of Polish, German and Soviet actions before, during and after the war.

Long-hidden ruins of vast network of Maya cities could recast history
<In Guatemala, scientists map well-organized network of 417 cities dating to circa 1000 B.C.

>Beneath 1,350 square miles of dense jungle in northern Guatemala, scientists have discovered 417 cities that date back to circa 1000 B.C. and that are connected by nearly 110 miles of “superhighways” — a network of what researchers called “the first freeway system in the world.”


>Scientist say this extensive road-and-city network, along with sophisticated ceremonial complexes, hydraulic systems and agricultural infrastructure, suggests that the ancient Maya civilization, which stretched through what is now Central America, was far more advanced than previously thought.


>Mapping the area since 2015 using lidar technology — an advanced type of radar that reveals things hidden by dense vegetation and the tree canopy — researchers have found what they say is evidence of a well-organized economic, political and social system operating some two millennia ago.


>The discovery is sparking a rethinking of the accepted idea that the people of the mid- to late-Preclassic Maya civilization (1000 B.C. to A.D. 250) would have been only hunter-gatherers, “roving bands of nomads, planting corn,” says Richard Hansen, the lead author of a study about the finding that was published in January and an affiliate research professor of archaeology at the University of Idaho.
