    That’s just bad teaching. If you’re not allowed to use negatives then the teacher shouldn’t be asking questions where negatives are the answer. 20-25 is NOT equal to zero whether you’ve learnt negatives or not.

      It’s just a greentext. It’s fake.

      Also gay.

      Mostly it’s a fetishization of being the minderstood smart kid with scenarios that aren’t true but feel true.

      Pretty fake. Pretty gay.

      I don’t really like the slur I’ve been using here, but authenticity requires it. Oi moi.

        Maybe this instance is fake, but this does happen: my primary school teachers went as far to refuse that negative numbers exist.

        She got angry if someone hinted at them.
