Except it never trivializes anything.
It’s saying: “You find these deaths sad? How come you don’t find these deaths sad too?”
It never says “man fuck these kids, these guys are way more important”. That’s an important distinction to make.
Now, it is being critical of people who find things they hear about in the news sad by implying they only care about the things they hear about. And yeah that’s hella dumb because you can’t expect people to know everything that happens in the world.
But it’s doing that so as to make people think a little more. And that’s no bad thing.

It sooo does trivialize it. Look at that comic, and just try to keep the smarm from seeping into your brain. The faggot who made that comic knew exactly which tragedy the person was upset about, and led with "Oh, which one." Oh, fuck you. How about that? You want to say that there are other tragedies too? Say it like a person. Say it like a human being who isn't using a tragedy to prove how goddamn cool, and smart you are. He has tried so hard to be big minded, that he has narrowed himself to being just another smarmy hippy piece of shit.
