2/2 Most damming, George Santos is under investigation for announcing that he’d be at the State of the Union, but then betting on Kalshi that he would NOT attend. Why? The only logical answer is he and Rubio cannot be in the same room because they’re one and the same.

[Ben Heide @bheide]

1/2 Hot take: the only way Marco Rubio is able to do all those jobs is because he is also former congressman George Santos. Think about it: If anyone came up to you with a resume like Secretary of State, National Security Advisor, and Acting Archivist, had to be George Santos.

Several days ago, YouTube demonetized our channel https://t.co/n40YMVzSp7 for “inauthentic content.”

This recent situation has created tremendous stress for us, as a channel in the age of AI hype. We are proud to be actual voice actors that offer our own unique commentary and narration to the videos we serve to our community.

Our content is not automated. It is not mass-produced. It is not a slideshow with no value. We have actual voice actors, actual editors, and literally an actual person on payroll that we pay just to record gameplay.

This channel supports my family and the team who help make it possible. Many of the team members apart of this channel make their livelihood through this.

We submitted an appeal video showing our production process and workflow, but that got denied without being watched at all.

We've reached out numerous times but unfortunately all of our attempts to reach out just keep getting denied by what we suspect is an AI or just copy and pasted templated responses.

Instead of receiving a specific explanation, we've repeatedly received generic template responses saying the channel is “inauthentic” without identifying what videos, facts, or patterns caused that decision.

If our channel is truly "inauthentic", how are we supposed to even know what to fix if we can't even be told specifically what the issues are?

We're not asking for special treatment.

We're asking for just one actual real human support/specialist to look at the channel and give it a proper review. And if an actual real human finds it to be "inauthentic". We would like to be told in specific what about the channel is violating the "inauthentic content" policy without receiving a copy and pasted template of examples of what "inauthentic content" is.

All we want is for one real human at YouTube to look at the actual evidence.

Please help us, we're confident the demonetization was done through error. Many of the people apart of the UnderSparked team rely on this for their livelihoods. @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators
