Yes it is. It is for people who do not have the wit, nor the differentiational skills to be sardonic. You will find that in a good dictionary, the primary meanings of the two words are not synonyms.
Sardonic; to be morbidly jocular
Sarcastic; to bitterly wound.
Now, you can see why losers use sarcasm; it is a cheap attack, masking as wit.

Sarcasm is OK sometimes. It's not ok to hurt your friend's feelings with sarcasm.
It's OK to use sarcasm to make a point that is noble. Sarcasm is for immature folks who are insecure. Young people in their 20s love sarcasm because they haven't achieved much and want respect and recognition.
Once you get a little older you realize you keep the friends you uplift with support and thoughtfulness and don't tear down with sarcasm.
People like being around people that make them feel special.
Sounds sentimental but its true.

No sarcasm is intelligent humor its sort of a Way of hiding from direct confrontation of an issue. Sarcasm takes a serious issue makes joke about it in serious way with a small humorous note in it some people get it others take it to seriously. Sarcasm is a good humor attribute to much is way annoying but its a part of well rounded sense of humor with a hint of irony and intelligence.
Sarcastic people can carry a solid conversation without using it
Many comedians are very street smart in reference to their background and upbringings. they can be quite sarcastic sometimes yet they seem to be on stage all the time with little or know shyness look at jay Leno sarcastic yes loser no way he is very successful.

I love sarcasm, I use it and I like hearing it. It's funny. I don't consider myself a loser in any way, and if anyone else does, I don't concern myself with that. I just like to have a good time.
