I don't understand those reaction videos. Could be because I'm autistic. Can someone explain their appeal?
-
Money.

What I meant is the appeal to watch them (I know that was probably clear, but I'm still interested)
-
don't like them either, but i think people watch it because they get context.
they also get told, how they should feel about it. seems like people stoped making up their own mind. it's easier, i guess.

That's one kind of reaction videos, or like one thing you can get out of react content, but for me when I indulge in it (rarely) it's because it's "X-persona reacts to thing from Y-culture". Mostly I'm amused by Americans watching European things and getting their minds blown. Sometimes it's also because the person reacting is an expert in the topic and provides helpful additional context, for example with fitness stuff it's nice to get a medical opinion about it, etc.
With all that said, you do have to avoid mountains and mountains of garbage content that's only made because it's an easy grift to find the ones worth watching.

which reaction videos? this is just someone commenting on something.
-
They are reacting to the short videos from regretful trump supporters at the beginning. It's even called a reaction in the thumb nail. Thinking about it, what even is the difference between commenting on and reacting to someone else's video, if the commenting is done by showing their videos and then making your own video about it?
