Does bruh express empathy? I've always read bruh as "bruh what are you doing" in a lot of contexts. But I can't really say it's something I use much.

Context is key. It can express empathy, or disappointment, or awe.

Context is always key.

"Bruh.. sorry for your loss"

I think it depends on how you pronounce it and context. I'm used to hearing a shorter bruh with a look attached to it as a question for "what are you doing?" vs a longer bruh like "bruuuuuuh" as empathizing like "that's rough".
