Why is it okay to victim blame and make jokes about Darwin awards in this instance? The same respect should apply, a child lost their life.

Because no one who subway surfs is going to become a Rhodes scholar or a doctor. They're barely worth the breath of a Darwin award joke.

They don’t understand that children have undeveloped brains and expect them to make decisions like their geriatric asses

The people joking about the deaths of children are vile. Absolutely soulless. “Hehe, it’s not like they were going to grow up to be doctors!” As if someone’s life is less valuable because of their class/hypothetical career.

It’s grotesque.. just vile people feel comfortable saying those things, let alone thinking they’re clever. Such glibness, and like you said, it reeks of classism..
