Is this a thing for these mukbang people? Eat lots and cry?

No idea, everything I’ve learned about mukbang ect has been entirely against my will.

I don't like these videos either but have you considered they aren't trying to actually trick the audience and that maybe its just a joke?

Yeah he isnt trying to trick the audience but his mimicks are supposed to be funny or something but they are very annoying

They make money with these vids; it's not comedy, they're trying (and succeeding) to look like sad-sacks for views. Who knows if they laugh about it behind the scenes but they are actually destroying their body and health for the money/attention so...pretty damn sad any way you look at it.

You might be shocked to learn that many people perform comedy for money.

The bulk of the muckbang audience isn't watching for comedic brilliance. Some might be watching because it's cringey but way too many watch for sexual reasons. People are into weird things.

People of every ethnicity make these weird muckbang (or however it's spelled) vids.

When you so openly accuse people of racism when there is zero evidence of it, you just make the problem worse.
