"The same culture that promotes this kind of behavior is the same culture that ultimately spawns mass atrocities. I don’t think that’s hyperbolic."

Yes, it is indeed hyperbolic. Witt was referring to a specific act, not the system. Communism is egocentric since is a proxy servant of the devil, however the protest by the German skating icon Witt was against government system in which Valieva had a her "young and promising career" that Witt says was detoured, but a protest against the International Testing Agency for her not being able to medal for her country and continue in that career. Witt said Valieva should not be "held responsible for the teenager's failed test" since "you always follow the advice of your confidants," which thus represented a "dramatic turning point for her young and promising career system." While she implicitly faulted her trainers, yet there is not protest against what you described, and instead her "young and promising career" would be by continuing in that system.

And neither the loss of a medal and having a young and promising career detoured as well as Russia’s system overall that pushes such is certainly not something that "cannot be surpassed in inhumanity" which would include the crucifixion of Christ as well as the extreme long-term torture and privations of Christian and noble men and women.
