    What kind of persond delights in seeing other people’s misery when they’re literally trying to follow the law for legal immigration.

      We have many technical words for this. Sociopath comes to mind first.

      Literally a dangerous psycopath.

      This is basically ‘tortured kittens to death as a kid’ level shit.

      If you made a TV show or Movie where a character did this, people would say it was heavy handed and lacked subtlely, it is too over the top, it isn’t a well written bad guy (gal) character, it’s schlocky.

        Sociopathic phychosis, to narrow it down a little more.

        It’s that lack of empathy that seems like the initial trigger.

        Edit: Sadistic sociopathic psychosis.

      I mean, it seems beyond sociopath. Sociopath is lacking empathy, but to delight in someone else’s misery… it’s psychotic.

        Curious if you mean psychopathic?

        I mean, it’s easy to joke that Republicans suffer from psychoses (hallucinations and delusions) but in the context of extreme antisocial behavior and lack of empathy, psychopathic might be the right word.
