I never understand this argument. How does humor come before empathy to some people? How could having a giggle ever overrule a tragedy? There’s coping with pain through humor, but if it’s not your pain, it just seems juvenile and insensitive.
I’m not downvoting you because that’s a valid question I don’t have an answer for. All I know is, I stand by my statement, because it’s been proven to me time and time again.

Because Humor can be coping mechanism also for stuff there are not involved with. Some people need to laugh at tragedy.
Edit: you are saying “not your pain” as if empathy does not exist. We sometimes need to distance ourselves from tragedy and some do this with humor.
