    Why is Communism idolized

    I see ADHD less as "slow" than as unfocused. Also, in communist Russia treated ADHD via spanking at young age, work like charm, comrade. :D

    Why is Communism idolized

    Because to quote a Bulgarian proverb "what is mine is mine, what is other people's is common property". A large number of commie fanboys are either silver spoon trust-fund babues, like the posh hypster chick with the prius that couldn't afford ramen and was going to eat the rich. Or they are...
