      I didn’t get that from the article. It is definitely fucked up that they lied but it didn’t seem like they were doing it for sadistic reasons.

        Sadism is not the same as psychopathy.

          So you think all the leaders of the USSR and DDR had impaired empathy and were egotists with who showed no remorse?

                  No I’m just asking whether they were psychopaths as well? Or if you’re just an anti communist.

                  In the interest of preserving your delusions of moral superiority, you guys have turned the concept of whatboutism into a magic “get out of comparative analysis free” button
