x = 1 + 1
x - 1 = 1
divide each side by -1
x = -1

x = 1 + 1
x - 1 = 1
(1+1) - 1 = 1
1 = 1

x is true for all values.

first of all, i didnt know you could move the same number over the equal sign more than 1 time, secondable, you moved -1 to its previous position without changing it back to +1

Nope. Every base is base 10 reference, which makes him a /sci/ oldfag.

It only works because you substituted x for 2, which is what it is. Do it again with a different value of x, smartass.
