Can these memes be taken as a joke? 

Whether memes on such disease can be used for fun or not is a question which is debatable. First, let us get aware what mesothelioma is. So according to mesothelioma.com, 

“it is a rare, aggressive form of cancer that develops in the lining of the lungs, abdomen, or heart." 

Mesothelioma occurs in a person’s body due to asbestos and it is incurable. There is a grant of financial compensation for people who are exposed to asbestos unknowingly, for example during job hours or through a product at home. Law firms like Sokolove and Weitz & Luxenberg have publicised their services to patients and the phrase which is widely used in such commercials is that people are entitled to financial compensation if they are diagnosed with mesothelioma. The question that is frequently asked is why such memes are funny? In a way, such trolls make fun of an advertisement that is there to help people who or their family members are dying or dead?

This showcases downright disrespect to people who are diagnosed with mesothelioma as well as their loved ones. Would you be making fun if any of your mother, father, or any other loved one had this life harming disease and trying to claim their rightful money? It seems as if people on internet and television are ready to stoop down to any level just for some fun. It can be said that such memes are highly unfair to those who are affected by this cancer.
