al-Gebra, helping them find the leaders x and y, and helping them enter cells known as matrices....

Even worse, they're introducing kids to al-Gebra's radical Greek offshoot, Trigonom-etry, and its mysterious leader, Theta; and teaching them their sines and cosines, helping them learn their "identities." (As if the transgender stuff wasn't bad enough!) What is the world coming to??
