  Theres no need for it at all.
  
  Did you ever cry in your room when you were little and after a minute of realizing nobody was coming... you cried louder and harder?
  The people online are crying louder and harder because nobody in their own lives gives a damn OR everyone in their own lives is sick of the constant need for attention/drama. 
  Look, I'll agree that 99% of the ones filming themselves crying are just attention whores looking for a fix, but that doesn't make it 100% pointless. Sometimes it's people desperately needing that human connection of someone patting them on the back saying "It'll be ok" because they can't get that any other way.
context: Can someone make me a subreddit to watch people do this? I would like that very much. >
  
  It's called TikTok. >
  
  Reminds me of that so-called journalist sobbing on MSNBC after getting a bunch of hate online because she was doxxing the family members of some politician she disagreed with. >
  
  Journalists are a different type man.
  The recent Twitter acquisition has been insane for showing that. I've seen them freaking out lately about something that's been standard process for half a decade at this point because a lot of the privilege to break the rules brazenly got stripped back.
  It's why the Musk/Twitter drama is tricky for me lately. I'm more than happy to criticise the funny rocket man but I can't really stick him with the blame for something if it was a problem before he took over. Or at the very least, I can't say that the issue originated from Musk, and is just a problem that was always there. >
  
  I feel like most of it is fake anyways, because who starts sobbing and thinks "ah yes, time to get those sweet sweet internet likes" >
  
  More people than you'd think, unfortunately. >
  
  TikTok is full of this. And everyone's in their car for some reason, why is that? >
  
  Not controversial >
  
  
  Not because there crying, theres nothing wrong with that. Because your need for attention and validation id fucking pathetic.
  
  This is an oxymoron. 
  Why do humans cry? We cry as a visible/audible way of communicating we need support from other humans. We cry because we need attention and validation from others to erase the negative thing we're feeling, or to bolster our self esteem or to let us know we're not alone.
  We cry for a multitude of reasons and pretty much every damn one of those reasons is; I need another human to validate my emotions. Whether it's tears of joy, grief, sadness etc. It's an evolved trait that acts as a request for attention and validation. 
  So your assertion that A) Crying is okay and nothing is wrong with it and B) Needing attention and validation is pathetic just doesn't jive. >
  
  Yeah because crying when you feel.those feelings, either alone (which lead to 0 validation/attention) or with your family, friends even strangers is exactly the same as posting it online for the entire world to see. Its not the same and you know it. I stand by what i said it attention seeking and pathetic. Its not used in thay sense as a natural.mechanism its used to boost your own fucking ego. Make others feel sorry for.you.
  Theres no need for it at all.
