I think you're over-generalizing from one example. I follow a few differnt channels that are totally harmless and boring, and they all complain about demonitization.

It seems like the algorithm just defaults strongly towards demonitization. Maybe it will learn and get better, but at the moment lots of things are getting demonitized.

To me, it sounds like what's really happening is that the amount of content has vastly outstripped the amount of available, ahem, monetization.
