How to use "Reacting" in context?
Reacting has become something that we do on instinct, without really thinking about it. We may do a quick head nod in agreement or a quick frown in disapproval, but we're not really actually engaging with the person in front of us. We're just going through the motions.
This is particularly evident online. We scroll through our social media feeds and see people reacting to something without really thinking about what they're saying or doing. They might be posting about the latest political event or article, but they're not really being thoughtful. They're just reacting.
There are certainly times when this is appropriate.
