Explain to me why it being before their birth makes the leveling of entire cities and the death of hundreds of thousands of people okay to trivialize?

    Can you explain to me who is harmed by laughing at this hilarious roast?

    How small your problems must be to waste energy clutching these digital pearls.

    There are entire books written on the ethics and impacts of jokes. Punching up vs punching down, the implications of the social power dynamics, context, and the like.

    If you as a supposed adult can't look at the world around you where trivializing the Holocaust has been a tool used to fuel the rise of fascism and extrapolate out why empathy is good and trivializing mass scale deaths is bad under the guise of fat jokes then no, I can't explain to you who is harmed and why.
