math is synthetic a priori, science is mainly posteriori but the logic behind it works the same way as its mathematical principles

Nope, maths and science are mostly imagination and nothing more but a language, a communication method.
Like everything, you can either believe in maths or choose not to believe in it.

You'd really have to be hallucinating if you think you can get some kind of transparency on reality

Everything that you are is a result of you interracting with your environment, so yes, everything is empirical.

On the other hand, there's no exact line distinguishing you from your environment, so you are also part of the environment, making everything a priori.

So... who the fuck knows...

Stop being a retard who thinks 2+2=4 is a matter of belief.

Yeah it is.
I can say 3+3 = 9, if the + sign in truth means x.
Math is just a language, you know it or you do not, you follow the rules or you do not.
Thinking Maths have intrinsic value is as naive as thinking English does.
Both just convey thoughts.

Math is a priori clamped. Science is a priori circumcised and vaccinated.
