For example a person claims that someone has no right to be sad because he can eat three times a day while others cannot even spend for a meal. Thank you.

Depending on the subject of the discussion, it's some form of Whataboutism , I'd say.
No, emotion is not logic. The first challenge is to examine the reasoning behind the claim. We do not evaluate an emotional claim, but only the logic behind it. No logic, no value- you are dismissed.
