Is she being ironic or really didn’t actually know? It’s hard to know if attention-economy people do gimmicky things for attention or really are that… uh… unaware of things?

Oh, I hadn’t heard of her, when I first read this I read it as her being sane and Polymarket being the one misunderstanding what Arabic numerals are
So the “dear god” would be directed at Polymarket and not Mamdani
Idk if i’m explaining this well

Polymarket is a betting website, clearly someone made a bet that Zoran Mamdani would mandate teaching arabic numerals knowing that idiots would bet against it.

Laura Loomer is a reactionary asshole with early winter ground level intelligence. She doesn’t know and would argue you’re lying to not look stupid.

Can you explain what you mean about winter ground level intelligence?

my guess is it’s a step below calling someone “room temperature” in reference to their perceived IQ

Pretty much.
