Eastern germany is a tragedy. The guys you call based had a divorce rate of 30% back in 1975.
I don't know if you just have a desire for punishment, surveillance, constant lack of supplies and obedience, but east germany was nothing like you presented it...
They didn't have color tv in the 80s, watching non approved channels got you a ride to re-education in Bauzen.
Here some actual footage of life in eastern germany, and no it did not look like that on the other side of the fence where no minefields and and automated machine gun turrets were pointed at civillians to keep them from fleeing this apparent absolute paradise.
Also the stuff with gays and faggots is simply wrong, eastern germany removed the law that outlawed homosexuality in 1968, while West germany only followed in 1994 (see attached wikipage for proof)!!!!!!!!!!!
You actually sound a little like Euronymus, the guittarist of Mayhem, who was a Erich Honecker and East germany stan, because the system was so inhumane and brutal, and he hated humanity that much that he wished the whole world had to suffer under it.

small collection of pre 1989 footage, don't get fooled but it being black and white, only party members, state press and intelligence had access to color photo films.
also for reference i added a picture of what the NVA really looked like!
