YouTube reaction video channels are all the rage these days. So, it was only a matter of time before certain companies began catering their businesses towards their creators. Websites offering online classes, such as Masterclass and Skillshare, now have online acting courses specifically targeted toward those aiming to be the biggest reactors on social media.
These crying reaction classes give YouTubers various invaluable lessons on: looking sad and distraught, when to start repeating the word No, and the optimal time to dab your eyes with tissues after fanning them with your hands in an “effort” not to cry.
More expensive courses even teach crymoting—a method of promoting a reactor’s merchandise at the end of the video in the saddest way possible to reach maximum sympathy and profits.
Celebrities are jumping on the miserable bandwagon, teaching the most popular crying classes. These sad individuals include: Kristen Stewart, Nicolas Cage, Megan Fox, and Vin Diesel.
While crying classes are by far the most prominent, other reaction courses offering lessons in exaggerated hype and basic empathy are also available for creators to learn.
