We think Sarah Silverman lists “comedian” as her occupation, so maybe this is the same sort of meta-joke that had ’em in stitches at the Democratic National Convention as she and fellow master of improvisation Sen. Al Franken attempted to stall for time.

compassion, empathy, and consideration are seriously lacking in our self serving society of entitlement. It's a sad time.

When I'm teaching my high schoolers, I call that "intellectual empathy." Wish more people practiced it.
