I definitely believe the deep empathy that neurodivergents are usually better at plays a key role, along with the obsessive interests and experience of oppression/discrimination. Most autistic people struggle with keeping a job for two years, so the financial and time management struggle I believe pushes us to the left quickly.
I have noticed that many people who are disabled (such as myself who is AuDHD) or GSM/trans are usually the first to be radicalized as MLs (or at least anarchists).

2x still means 2 * x.

x is still multiplied last. There’s not a rule for implied multiplication shorthand preceding operations to the left. You still need to wrap 2x in parentheses if you want the operation to occur first.

This isn’t like a polynomial like ax^2 + bx + c as division is done between 6 and 2 before multiplication with x. Typically you wouldn’t see such an equation (which is intended to trick you) as normally addition or subtraction would occur like in a polynomial or another variable equation (such as a linear graph), which would be done after the exponents, multiplication, and division with the variables are calculated. In the instance you wrote, it should be written as (6/2)x, or 3x, to avoid obscuring the equation. Though you intended for 6/(2x), or 3/x.
And no worries, comrade, I’m just meaning to help since I am good at math and like helping people (I don’t mean this in an egotistical way). I’m not taking offense, and I am not meaning to offend anyone.
2(1 + 2) does imply multiplication: 2 * (1 + 2). The reason it counts as one term, as I noted below, is because it is inside a two-dimensional fraction which has implicit parathenses in the numerator, denominator, and the fraction itself. The first equation is actually ((6) / (2(1 + 2))). When a fraction is written in two dimensions instead of a single string, the division between the numerator and the denominator is supposed to be done last.
The first equation is not 6 / 2(1 + 2). If it was, this means you get (6 / 2) * (1 + 2) as in the second equation, which means (1 + 2) is moved up to the numerator ((6(1+2)) / 2 = (6 / 2) * (1 + 2)), which means the two problems are not equal to each other. I believe this is the point of the “joke”.
I just realized where the confusion is coming from:
If we assume the second equation is true, then the first would have to be represented as (6 * (1 + 2)) / 2, which is (6 * 3) / 2, which is 18 / 2, which is 9. This means the mistake was made by multiplying the fraction with (1 + 2) by incorrectly placing it in the denominator instead of the numerator. I think the image is supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek troll as the two equations are non-preserving transformations of each other. It’s a common mistake that is made in arithmetic.
Here are the equations in WolframAlpha:

Following BEDMAS BOMDAS PEMDAS or however you call it in your area as written, the correct interpretation is interpretation #2, which resolves to 9
Both problems are valid on their own. There’s no correct interpretation. If we want to assume they were supposed to be equal to each other, this means one was incorrectly transformed from the other due to common mistakes that occur with two-dimensional fractions. The horizontal line between a fraction is not equal to / without implicit parentheses applied, otherwise the horizontal line would only apply to the first number, which is not the point of a two-dimensional fraction.
Assuming the first way is written correctly, the equation is actually 6 / (2 * (1 + 2)). The (1 + 2) is still inside the denominator. So it is solved as follows:
6 / (2 * (1 + 2))
6 / (2 * 3)
6 / 6
1
The second equation incorrectly takes out the (1 + 2) and places it as the numerator on the side. In order to take that piece out correctly, it would have to be: (6 / 2) * (1 / (1 + 2))
And to solve it, it would look like as follows:
(6 / 2) * (1 / (1 + 2))
3 * (1 / (1 + 2))
3 * (1 / 3)
3 / 3
1
Also, 3 * 3 = 9 in regards to second incorrect equation (incorrect meaning the second incorrectly refactored equation from the pic that you answered correctly up until the last operation).
I think The_sleepy_woke_dialectic forgot to put parentheses around the denominator, but I believe it was meant to be interpreted as the entire denominator as shown in the pic.
As someone with bad handwriting, I can say it is a 1.
I get that there are a lot of gTLDs, but I am surprised many people think ml stands for Marxist-Leninist instead of the more likely option of being a national TLD. Yeah, there’s su for the Soviet Union, but it’s hard for me to imagine a TLD referring to anything remotely left in a capitalist dominated world. It costs $185K (soon to be $227K) just for the application alone to create a new gTLD, and it costs several thousand per quarter along with a transaction fee per registered domain after 50,000 being registered to keep it available. Plus the application process is restricted to organizations, not individuals. It’s hard to imagine ml being bought and created by a Marxist-Leninist organization when that amount of money would be going to something so trivial and pointless instead of being used towards any activist project.
Maybe if your citizens weren’t struggling for food, more people could buy shitty AAA games.

I learned Hyperbola is moving to its BSD derivative kernel, HyperBK, on this thread, and it will be GPL.
Perhaps, I like to give the benefit of the doubt. There is the line “We don’t put folks to death for having different opinions,” which seems to have at least a hint of sarcasm given the mass shootings that occur in America frequently.
Sometimes his songs are a bit “both sides” or liberal/(non-ML) anarchist, but I enjoy listening to them by giving them a socialist interpretation, though some lines it’s hard to do and I just ignore them. I also hope he grows and develops his consciousness more (as well as his fans), and sometimes it’s nice seeing an artist do so and witnessing their journey as they express it within their art.
