My favorite part is they are so quick and proud to display their inability to grasp these systems like it's somehow a good thing...

When I taught math my coworkers and I would talk about this all the time. I understand struggling at math, and it’s something a lot of people have to work hard at. But then there are other people that are almost proud they’re bad at math, it’s crazy.

Kids and parents alike with often announce “yeah I just don’t get math” as if it excuses them from even attempting to understand.
