I hypothesise it might be connected to me clicking every single one of these thumbnails, but I'm not an expert on computers
2012: "this person is talking quietly... that's fine, I guess"
2020: "here's a cottage industry with sponsorships and greenscreens and advanced recording equipment, you can pay money to Patreon for clips of women moaning into a microphone, there's their Amazon wishlist by the way"
Capitalism destroys everything
I honestly can't begrudge anyone for trying to make a buck on the internet, whether it's from Youtube, Twitch, podcasting or whatever... unless you're a Nazi or something
Some of these booby ASMR channels actually do ok ASMR, but a lot of them definitely fail on the ASMR aspect
...at least that's what I heard from a friend or read in a newspaper, I can't remember which

I think you might be on to something here.
In all honesty though, I remember a time when my recommendations were absolutely flooded with reactionary garbage for no legitimate logical reason and I much prefer this state of affairs- at least I know exactly why the machine overlords keep pushing breasts on me
And on the other hand, I miss when my recommendations were filled with good indie songs. Now I get the same lofi mixes every day :sadness:
You've got to resist those bewitching lofi video thumbnails
You'll be happy to hear that there's plenty of that to be had on Youtube
Our volcel IT department are experts however, and they've concluded it's time for a visit to horny jail

i once clicked on an anime toy gun video that looked cool, and youtube decided i should see another 10 videos of the same gun by different people
CMV: Listening to ASMR is an inherently horny activity.
"Tingles" are you getting turned on because somebody is whispering or making rhythmic sounds. You are sexually attracted to the sound of paper tearing. If you watch an ASMR video that features a child, in any context, you are a pedophile. If you watch an ASMR video of a child tearing paper, you are a pedophile.
I've seen people suggest that ASMR is for falling asleep. I can buy that shit with like, rain, or ocean sounds, or other white noise. If you want to fall asleep by listening to a stranger whisper in your ear then you have a fetish for being murdered in your sleep. If it is a child doing the whispering, then you are a pedophile.

Probably depends on the content, no? There are a bunch of creators who very consciously steer away from any kind of horny content and who aren't doing the whole e-girl (or e-boy) aesthetic. Then you have "unintentional ASMR" videos featuring like old Japanese carpenters doing their thing which I doubt people are watching because they're getting hot under the collar. Also, have you never just scratched or rubbed some material because you liked the sound and tactile sensation it made?
If you watch an ASMR video that features a child
ASMR channels with children sound like a monumentally awful idea
