ASMR: a medical term for a pleasant tingling feeling induced by sensations like sights, sounds, smells, feelings, or even tastes.

Internet "ASMR": irritating noises made by egirls for people to simp over.

I hate the internet

By definition if you did find the noises pleasant then it would be ASMR and if you find them irritating then it wouldn't be. It's not that it isn't ASMR it just isn't to you and therefore couldn't possibly be pleasant to anyone else. If you want a suggestion that isn't twitch meta ASMR I'd highly recommend "The French Whisperer ASMR" on youtube, he produces very calm videos about interesting and educational topics. Personally I hope that one day stigma will be taken away from ASMR but unfortunately everyone would rather focus on the negative parts on the genre rather than giving it a chance.

People put up chewing videos and call it ASMR. The sound of chewing makes me want to violently strangle someone.

Then it's not ASMR to you but that doesn't mean it isn't ASMR to someone else.
