schadenfucker

One who engages in schadenfuckery, which is the act of facilitating another's misfortune for one's own pleasure.

Related to schadenfreude, but different. Schadenfreude only involves feeling pleasure from another's misfortune. A schadenfucker actively (or through inaction) helps cause or worsen another's misfortune, for their own pleasure.
One schadenfucker decided not to support Hurricane Harvey relief efforts because Texas voted for Trump in the 2016 presidential election.

schadenfunin

Schadenfunin: laughing at other's private jokes/stories.
After hearing the man at the next table apologize 'for last night' and the girl he was sitting with said sadly, "don't worry, it happens to all guys." The man tapped a bumper out on the table as if punctuating a joke. I laughed so hard that milk came out my nose. I pretended that I was choking rather than admit to schadenfunin.
