Demonetization is a form of censorship when Youtube is your paycheck.

If your employer threatened to not pay you because you took a political position that would be abhorrent and oppressive treatment. Youtube is not a direct employee and it's more of a business partner, but it's wielding it's power to control speech - which is oppressive.

I wonder - does YouTube still serve ads in ‘demonetized’ videos and just cut out the creators commissions?
