Schrödinger's Communist
The description of any leftist (for the most part) that describes the non-sequitur used by ignorant or otherwise unknowledgeable right-wingers.
The fallacy is that somehow, in the minds of the right-winger (who, for the record, most likely has no actual idea what Socialism is) people who support Socialism/Communism are lazy and weak, but also have the idea that Socialism/Communism is when the people are overworked or are "forced to work for extensive periods of time"
An example of a natural case of Schrödinger's Socialist can be found when somebody says this,
"It's a murderous ideology for lazy bags of shit who play video games all day..." then go on to say, "...yet they somehow think working for inhumane hours and doing hard labor is how we should live."
In summary, a non-sequitur commonly spouted by ignorant conservatives who think the red-scare hasn't ended.

P1: "Man, make up your mind, are we lazy or wanting to be overworked?"
P2: "Seems like a case of Schrödinger's Communist!"
