I linked these items as examples of professional criminals misusing math as a culprit. Rehashing both together.
Bitcoiners constantly say they’re letting math rule. Math is god, math is supreme, math is unarguable.
Nope. They’ve kicked math out of the house.
Math is always formed in equations. Using math means screwing around with both sides of the equal sign, always keeping both sides effectively equal. That’s the original definition of algebra, and the process of bookkeeping. Bitcoin claims to be a ledger but it is NOT A LEDGER AT ALL. It’s just a formatted list with columns for an item number, date, time and information. Not math by any definition.
Bitcoiners and stock traders do not have an equal sign. They make up FICTIONAL STUFF that is expressed in numbers, and then base a FICTIONAL WORLD on the FICTIONAL STUFF they made up. There is no balance, no credits vs debits, no algebra, no equal sign. Just layers and layers of delusion, all designed to SUCK REAL MONEY from greater fools.
The real money from the greater fool leaves the world of debits and credits when it enters the metaverse of fictional shit. The greater fool has earned his money by a real exchange of labor for value, or he has borrowed it against a real enforceable promise to repay.
When he gives his real money to the bitcoiner or stock trader, he gets nothing at all. He might get a certificate representing a JPG online, or he might get a digital representation of 0.45324 FICTIONAL UNITS. The story-teller simply takes the real money and uses it, with no exchange even legally implied. The greater fool is left with no value at all, or left with a huge debt that he MUST repay.
The debt obligation is not transferred to the bitcoiner or the stock trader. The transaction has LAUNDERED the debt from the money, so the bitcoiner or stock demon now owns the real money with no obligation. The greater fool has the obligation and no real money. This used to be called “theft” in a long-ago distant hazy past.
Math has no control over this process. Poor old math can only stand back and watch in dismay as these demons commit blasphemy against a natural and useful tool.
Worst of all, bitcoiners BLAME AND FRAME math for their crimes.
“I didn’t steal your money, some guy named Math stole your money. Hey, there he is! Arrest him, officer!”

I wonder what Sam Johnson would think of this. He defined a lexicographer as a harmless drudge. Modern lexicographers are mass murderers. Words have always been weapons for propaganda, but the genocidal power of a single definition is relatively new.
When a man is a woman, he can commit all sorts of crimes with impunity. When a country is a failed state, we can wipe it off the map with impunity.
These weaponized is verbs are a new grammatical form.
Discussing this in the realm of grammar would get hopelessly confused and meta-ish, so I’ll use math and programming to explore the criminal nature of this weapon.
In normal language is carries the same structure as the equals sign in an algebraic equation. It expresses the equivalent force or equivalent meaning or equivalent characteristics of the items on both sides of the balance. The items, and their characteristics, exist before we write the is or = sign. We are merely making an observation.
A country is a bounded geographical region with one government.
You can replace a country with any entity known to be a country, and the is will hold true.
12 * c = (3 * c) + (9 * c)
You can replace c with any ordinary number, and the = will hold true.
Here Storekeeper Polistra is using a balance to OBSERVE that the jar of craft beer is the same weight as the calibrated standard.

Our new forcible is resembles the computer use of = for assignment.
When you start a program by declaring some constants for convenience, as in
const FloatTwo = 2.0
you are not simply observing that the two sides of the sign have the same properties; in fact they don’t start with the same properties. You are FORCING the box labeled FloatTwo to carry the properties of 2 in floating-point form.
In a simple free-standing program this does no harm. But if the forced assignment alters the properties of a global variable that exists before we make the assignment, serious harm can result. Changing Pi to 365, or changing DaysPerYear to 3.1416, will ruin an engineering or financial calculation, with potentially deadly results.
Modern computer languages take great pains to avoid this type of piracy. The compiler won’t let one module assign a new value to a global that has already been defined as a constant. Computer viruses often make this sort of change in a running program after it’s been compiled.
Here Storekeeper Polistra is ASSIGNING the beer to coffee. From now on, everything in the barrel is coffee. Everything in the barrel was always coffee. Anyone who claims that the coffee tastes like beer, or claims that the coffee violates their religion, is an Unperson who must be exterminated.

There is no compiler protecting the world against Sorosian monsters.
When Soros assigns that a specific man is a woman, the official arbiters change all of the legal properties of this man. She is a woman, she always was a woman, and every law and rule and custom must operate on the assumption that she is and was a woman, even when the result is physically impossible.
When Soros assigns that Guaido is the president of Venezuela, the official arbiters change all the legal properties. Every law in the world must now operate on the assumption that Guaido has always ruled Venezuela, even though Maduro is still the actual physical ruler of Venezuela.

In computers, and well-designed circuits and mechanisms, enforced modularity prevents this form of imperial destruction. In the real world there is no simple way to enforce modularity. At the moment Putin, carrying on the traditional Russian role of mediator and peacemaker, serves as a compiler for a few situations where Russia has a proper modular reason to mediate. But even if Putin wanted to exceed his modularity, he wouldn’t be able to stop most of these viral violations of modularity.

Later fussy footnote: Python has an is keyword and Javascript has a triple equal sign === to denote equipoise. These are used in one peculiar situation, not as ordinary balance observations, because programming doesn’t recognize balance or negative feedback. You would use is in a conditional to determine whether two different variables occupy the same memory location. They would then be synonyms in the same way as Three and 3. I’ve never used these keywords. They might help in low-level “close to the machine” programming, but Python and Javascript aren’t appropriate tools for such purposes. You’d normally use C or assembly.
