When I entered Middleschool* one of the teachers in charge got me a single desk directly infront of the teachers desk, about 5m away from everybody else. As I remembered, he did this in our first class, without knowing me. And because I “forgot” my home work the first two weeks, I had 1h detention everyday for the rest of the year… It was a pain in the ass but kinda worked for me. My grades got up really fast. He and my class teacher were the reason I took the relevant turn in school to enter College* and university later on

My ADHD got officially diagnosed in my 30s. And back then there was little to no awareness for neuro diversity. For them it was just “a type of person” or “character”. Like some people are calm and dont like to talk much or some people have their issues to behave theirself. So it wasnt something tailored for ADHD. The teachers were acting intuitive and out of their working experience. They were both just before retirement.

*Im from europe, so I tried to translate it in the more commonly known american school system terms

Once I couldnt remember a drive of ~3 hours… Teleporting is real _.

Ok another try:

If I get offered 2 options, and both options are bad for me, I wouldn’t choose either. By this, I dont rank their “badness”, I just tell that those options are not suitable for me. Not more not less.

Like arsenic and trash. They are both not suitable for me. But I dont rank them. I just say " no".

I my bubble the term tankie means somethin like a neo-sowjet, who thinks that the SU was heaven on earth. Not a communist. To be honest, I havent invested any real effort in researching this. But I just quotet the word, theyre not my words.

And once again Please try not to mention the shoah thoughtlessly in such discussions. Because this would definitly mean a trivialization.

First of all: I didnt set them equal. I just said I wouldnt chose either. If you are offering me two meals: A deadly vial of arsenic and some garbage out of your trash, i wouldnt chose too.

And furthermore: Tankie (as far as I understand this word) doesnt mean communist. And the communists I know, dont want to be seen like this.

So please try not to mention the shoah thoughtlessly in such discussions. Because this would definitly mean a trivialization.

Ok, that needs a little explaination

I assume you are something between LateTeenage to mid 20s, probably grown up in the USA? You are unsecurce about all the fascist-stuff happing right now and the regular civil resistance is … weak? So you take the extremistic way. Killing people, even the innocent, is a necessary evil. Human rights, democratic principles are a just burden you dont want to keep up. I can fully understand that you look for a simple solution in troublesometimes. And as a young(?) person its your right to have weird ideas about the world. And as long we have free media, you can cultivate your ideas, but you can move on to other conclusions and revidate you points of view. Its your own path. … I really hope for you, that you never have to endure the cruelties and terror of an arbitrary, authocratic regime like the stalinism.

Yeah sure. Its all fake. All the witnesses, who got their memories recorded by “Memorial” are payed agent by the captilastic propaganda. And all the bodies in the massgraves are droped there by the USA to make Stalin look bad. You sure can drop some shady “sources” to proof this insanity. If you want to I can proof Hitlera innocence the same way. Or that repitles are living in the Earthcore.

Im from Europe. I met a couple of people who witnessed his mess. Or had to endure unthinkable Cruilties.

Stalin is a Monster. Not the worst, but still a Monster

So you deleted my post for calling out Stalin a Monster? Really? Even the Communist Party admited it (in their weird propagandaishy way) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-Stalinization
