Capitalist society certainly exaggerates our symptoms, but doesn't cause them. Telling us we're methheads because of capitalism is not a good look.

    I dunno. There is a point about how living in the wild ADHD wouldn't have been maladaptive.

    Like, what if one cave person in twenty was easily distracted by leafs rustling. That would increase leapord detection enough to be a useful trait.

    In our modern world where there are so supprise threats or good forage to miss that just isn't useful anymore.
