I expect it's a dog whistle referring to black and ethnic crime statistics.



It's not, and I'm not even sure what you're getting at.


If that's the case then I apologize. It's a common thing to cherry pick out of context and misleading statistics to push a narrative, then say "you must hate statistics/maths/reality" when you point out they are misleading.

"The left hates math" = "the left hates our statistics"

Perhaps you could elaborate on your comment.


So what do you mean by “math-fearing”?
