Dark humor is humor generated from your own pain.

Edgy humor is humor generated from the pain of others.

The first one is funny, the second is boring and shitty

    Eh. I'd say there's exceptions. Maybe more to the point of "Don't Punch Down"?

    I can laugh all day at the rich/privileged suffering the consequences of their own mistakes.

    "Don't Puch down" is good rule to live by.

    Maybe the rich/privileged are controlling/influencing so much of our lifes that this counts as your own pain.

    No, it really doesn't. It's a kludge to allow hostile humour against people you don't like, while protecting those you do, all while claiming impartiality.
