1 + 1 = 3
From Wikinfo
1 + 1 equals 3 is an alternative to 2 + 2 = 5, obviously false, but by some means possible to be made to be believed true. In some ways, it is an even graver and more basic error than the 2+2 one, as 1+1 is the basic fundament of counting.
In popular culture
- Living Colour sings in "Cult of Personality," before directly naming Stalin, "I exploit you; still you love me. I tell you 1 and 1 makes 3."
- In the song "Do What You Want" by Bad Religion the lyric appears "I'll believe in God when one and one are five".
