How many apples did I have to start with?
2 + 2 = 5 Radiohead
Are you such a dreamer
To put the world to rights?
I’ll stay home forever
Where two and two always makes up five
I’ll lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has April’s showers
And two and two always makes up five
It’s the devil’s way now
There is no way out
You can scream and you can shout
It is too late now
Because you have not been
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
You have not been paying attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
You have not been paying attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
You have not been paying attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention
Payin’ attention oohh
I try to sing along
But the music’s all wrong
‘Cause I’m not
‘Cause I’m not
I swat ‘em like flies
But like flies the buggers
Keep coming back
And not
But I’m not
All hail to the thief
All hail to the thief
But I’m not
But I’m not
But I’m not
But I’m not
Don’t question my authority or put me in a box
‘Cause I’m not
‘Cause I’m not
Oh go and tell the king
That the sky is falling in
But it’s not
But it’s not
But it’s not
Maybe not
Maybe not
that is addition, not multipliication.
Unity. It isn’t just political BS.
Sounds like a flat earther to e. If 1x1 is 2, what is 2x1? He does not know the difference between x and +.
You’re thinking of Terrence K. Williams...

It’s the Moon that’s full of Germans. Not the Earth. Sheesh. The Earth is full of Reptilians instead. Where did you get your Crazy Diploma?
Terrence Howard played the lead role of Lucious Lyon on Empire and has been in many other movies and tv shows.

1, counted one time, is 1. But I suck at math.
You gave me one. Where’s the other one?
” so what’s the square root of two? Should be one, but we’re told it’s two, and that cannot be.”
Umm, we’re not told it’s 2. We’re told it’s the square root of two, which is an irrational number, approx, 1.414.
I have a feeling this guy got into the engineering program due to Affirmative Action and dropped out because he couldn’t comprehend basic math.
“If you increase it one whole time- it equals 2”
“Multiply” is not a synonym for “increase”. If I multiply something by zero, it only increases if the original was negative. If I multiply something by a negative, again, it can only increase if the original was negative.
If I give you one apple one time, you have one apple. 1 x 1 = 1. If I give you two apples two times, you have 4. 2 x 2 = 4.
He’s wrong.
That’s not the mathematical definition, that’s a a literary definition, for example: “be fruitful and multiply”.
not me that insists- the dictionary lays it out- twice- in two of the definitions- it doesn’t matter that there are other definitions as well, it doesn’t negate that it means to increase as per the definitions-
“that is addition, not multipliication.”
Multiplication is just iterated addition.
