There was an episode of Walker Texas ranger where he taught about exponential growth to people court ordered to be in an at risk youth program

And then someone who was mad about his lesson on exponential growth died breaking the policies, but the rest of them passed the program and even had the opportunity to kill chuck norris with a gun while he was unconscious but chose not to

There are different ways to interpret the episode but I interpret it as that the worst among at risk youth hate math
