This is nothing new, it's why we stopped producing videos for YouTube back in 2011 when they were basically doing that on every one of our videos and threatening to shut down our channel altogether if we said anything about it. So much for being a "youtube partner". Now, they routinely (and blatantly) do it to everyone.

Yet, Katy Perry's latest sick video "Bon Appetit" on cannibalism/peda and eating people, now has over 208 MILLION views and counting. Any question whatsoever that YouTube would have a problem with it? I'm sort of convinced at this point that YouTube's run by some kind of nefarious blood cult or something.
YouTube demonetization. Yeah it's completely sick, "we're going to cut you off because we don't like you politics", but it is cool to promote cannibalism and allow videos promoting terrorism. Priorities.
