Found at the DDR museum in Berlin. Apparently making childrens play with each other is communist propaganda.

      Rofl this is probably caused by the hilarious reactions she gets when she does this, either the elation adults show because it’s funny af or the shock and surprise being entertaining. Discouraging it is very difficult and a lot of kids do it for the same reasons - incorrect reactions from those around them end up reinforcing the behaviour.

        The son of one of my long-time friends likes to run around hitting random adults, myself included, just to see their reactions. burgerpain
