Introduction
I am currently a Mathematics Student who has had not so pleasant experiences at the hands of lecturers, course administrators and other mathematicians during the course of his studies. Such experiences have caused me to realise the importance of stable and acceptable social conditions for good mathematical practice. Realising the impossibility of dealing with other mathematicians in a rational and mathematical way, I have decided that the best way for me to fight my corner is to keep in check the egos of otherwise bigoted and self-serving mathematical moralists. I don't like the politicisation of mathematics especially as relates to wealth distribution and higher education politics in several parts of the world.

It could be argued that, within certain organisations mathematical politicisation is probably a necessity, though I doubt that an acceptable case for this could ever really be made when one is searching for the high degrees of truth (conceivably 'absolute' notions of truth) that are found within mathematics (where, the political and social aspect of getting groups of people to accept what their current definition of truth is going to be is, of course, something that can never be said to be an apolitical process).
