This is the message that I got from YouTube: “Your channel isn’t earning right now. After reviewing your channel using a combination of automated systems and human reviewers, we found that it does not follow YouTube’s channel monetization policies.
.
Our review found that your channel contains the following: Violent extremist or criminal organization. Content that intends to praise, promote, or aid violent extremist or criminal organizations, or incites violence.

Appeal if you think we made a mistake. If you think we made a mistake, submit an appeal telling us why. We’ll review your appeal and get back to you with a decision within 14 days. Only choose this option if you haven’t deleted any videos since your channel was suspended from monetizing.
If you don’t successfully appeal your suspension for this channel, any other channels you may operate are also at risk of suspension from YPP.”
