Youtube (Google) is no longer a Platform but rather a Publisher. Big difference.
YouTube doesn't want to pay people for their content. So they demonetize videos saying there is hate speech.
Many people created channels as a full time job to make money on YouTube, only to have their videos demonetized for no reason. The real reason is YouTube (Google) is cheap, only wants to pay a handful of far left corporate channels, and they want to censor conservatives.
For political videos, people are moving to
*****ute which allows all videos. They don't pay, so people have to get sponsors, but at least the videos stay up. *****ute is mostly political at this time, everyone banned from YT ended up there. As they get more content, more people will show up.
How to say FU to Google.
