The results of the blind use of mathmetical risk assessment models may indeed be racist results. https://money.cnn.com/2016/09/06/tec...ion/index.html

Math itself, calculating things with data is not.

But using some kind of tool that is supposed to be impartial to make decisions for us may not be a just way to make decisions even if its convenient to say "I defer to the tool that someone made, sorry, the tool says so, can't do anything about it"

But just saying "Math is racist" is more of a clickbait thing used to make the right hate the left more, and vice versa, since there seems to be interest in cultivating tribalism as much as possible, to our collective demise.
Pure trash article. Inequality is not on the rise. Math is racist is perhaps the most insane thing anyone could say. It’s the purist form of an objective reality. You should take a nap.
