Because of YouTube AI's continuous attacks on my channel, I have not been able to do what I love for the past year.
There were so many animations and projects I wanted to work on. But instead of doing that, half of my day consisted of coming up with new ways to reach YouTube support.
Godzilla minus zero just came out right now. I really want to make an animation about that movie. It is an amazing opportunity for my channel and on top of that, I get to work on a project that I love and am passionate about.
But NO. @TeamYouTube insists that my channel is simply made for kids. Simply because it is animation.
What's worse, is that they don't care enough to acknowledge their mistake. There are SO MANY affected that it is impossible that they are unaware of their situation. Unfortunately it seems like they just don't care.
@YouTube You are thankful? As if you guys didn't ruin person's life savings because of your A.I moderations and you still call that as being thankful? You surely aren't thankful.
Thank you to @AwestruckVox for making a video covering YouTube's unfair treatment of their animators!
He also covers other AI vs Animation stuff. Check out his video:

What now? @TeamYouTube. it's been 119 days since I got demonetized, this has been a problem in such a long time and you guys haven't solve it which is just frustrating for us creators. I waited 90 just to reapply but I still got rejected. Please help your creators and solve this.
🚨 YOUTUBE IS DEMONETIZING AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF ANIMATORS. AND NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT.
This is bigger than one channel. Bigger than one appeal. An alarming number of animation creators are losing their YouTube monetization under the same "Misleading Family Content" policy.
My channel, Pivot Master, has been demonetized for almost 3 MONTHS. And I'm far from the only one.
Here are just some of the affected creators:

More than 29 creators, probably way more that I am not aware of. Countless hours of animation. Years of hard work. And livelihoods being affected.
Animation does NOT automatically mean children's content.
Many of us create content for general audiences, yet our channels are being classified under a policy that we believe does not accurately reflect our work.
And what happens when we appeal?
Automated responses. Rejections. Copy-paste explanations. And creators left fighting to prove that their own content has been misunderstood.
We're want TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND GENUINE HUMAN REVIEWS.
@TeamYouTube@YouTube, please stop treating these as isolated cases.
LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE.
We want our channels reviewed fairly. We want clear explanations. And if these demonetizations are mistakes, we want our monetization restored.
To every animator affected: PLEASE SPEAK UP.
Repost and Quote this tweet. Tag @TeamYouTube. Share your experience in the replies.
Let's make sure this issue cannot be ignored any longer.
OUR CHANNELS ARE OUR YEARS OF HARD WORK. THEY DESERVE A FAIR CHANCE.
Guys apparently @TeamYouTube 's demonetization wave just hit Vrahno too
@TeamYouTube Shit's starting to get tiring can your system stop demonetizing every innocent animator?
We got AI slop in Youtube being mass produced, but no let's ignore that and continue targeting talented creators such as Vrahno, @master_pivot , @JimboCCYT etc
These are real people with lives and financial responsibilities, your AI moderation system's flawed and should not make the final call
Remonetize all affected creators who have been pinging you endlessly, they did not violate a single policy STOP ignoring them @TeamYouTube
New systems can never be perfect.
And it's understandable that YouTube AI systems can make mistakes
But these mistakes are costing people their livelihoods
And these systems have to be improved as times goes on. We cant have the same system make the same mistakes a year later
@TeamYouTube My channel has been demonetized again after spending over 6 months trying to get it back!
Please send a representative have a manual look and give me back my monetization. This issue has already been resolved, and should not always be a problem for animators!!!
I appealed many times and got automatically rejected within few hours by automated AI systems. @TeamYouTube Please manually review my channel and restore my monetisation!!!!
Another one of my channels was also removed due to "related channels" and now I am not able to earn!
Hey @TeamYouTube Today it has been 80 days.And still haven't returned my channel. I have given you all the proofs, but still my appeal is being ignored again and again.Please have my channel carefully reviewed by a human, @YouTube
https://t.co/l3syaUP50G My channel has been falsely flagged as "Misleading family content" by @TeamYouTube, yet other animators also got affected by this. Y'all need actual humans and not A.I
Please, review my channel. This is for my family's sake.
Really @TeamYouTube ? Is this how you guys treat us creators? You deadass gave her a manual review, confirmed it was completely fine by YOUR OWN WORDS, then your fabulous AI system demonetised her once again after all that hassle.
You guys are actively driving off creators with this faulty system, can you actually listen to the people for once and fix your system? This is becoming ridiculous
