Anyone who says they hate math is either an imbecile or someone who clings to their cognitive dissonance. I lost count of how many people I know who claimed to hate math when the 6 million topic came up. In reality they have been demoralized and short circuit when their idiotic world view is challenged. Math doesn't lie.
Math doesn't lie but there is a subset that has people who are questionable. I remember a quote from one of my math instructors.
There are three types of liars in this world. Liars, Damned Liars, and Statisticians. (He was a fun instructor.)

Who ripped that off of Mark Twain....
Truth .. and it was just as true then as it is now.
You can literally make the numbers say what you want them to say.
The only way to know if they are telling the truth is if you do the math yourself.

Or, alternatively, they're part of the 99% of the Human population that don't need anything more complicated than what can be done in Excel. If you're in that bucket, you don't really use math enough to need it, outside what the computer can calculate for you.
