What's wrong with calling out the DDR as bad communism? Socialism is great, Bremen tried to gain independence from Germany several times to found a soviet republic (räterepublik) which sadly failed each time because it was bloodily quelled by the german government. However the authoritarian totalitarianism practiced by the DDR was completely unacceptable. It's the same totalitarian attitude of Erdogan (the guy that also funded ISIS and attacked socialist kurds btw) that requires us to resist with everything we have. And if it means binding his resources and attention with childish insults, then be it so.
