Some people may find the jokes and remarks posted by this Twitter account to be immoral and indecent. The issue of why humans find comedy in crime then emerges. Freud proposed that one of our survival strategies is to search for the absurd, hilarious, and sarcastic in the most horrific circumstances. A sarcastic comment or a transgressive joke then serves as a coping mechanism. Horrible things frequently occur in the world, most of which are out of our control. In a confusing and unpredictable reality, comedy may provide some comfort.

Humor can also help in processing difficult emotions and situations. Laughing can help us feel better by relieving tension and stress, even in the worst scenarios. By finding humor in horrific situations, we can overcome our fears and anxieties about the subject and accept the realities of our world.

Among others, Aristotle and Plato thought that laughing results from contempt for the one who is suffering and a sense of superiority over someone else. That could imply that all Greek philosophers were lacking some empathy. However, laughing at these tweets might make us unempathetic beasts too. Or does it? Everything depends on what you find amusing and why.
