Is the problem with the way the commercials and ads work on YouTube?

Someone says something offensive on TV, people get together, say they're going to boycott advertisers unless they stop promoting it, etc.

On YT, however, I seem to get mostly the same ads no matter what I watch. Advertisers don't want to appear to be supporting controversial or offensive stuff, but they still want their ads to be seen, so is the quick fix, "Anything potentially offensive just won't get monetized for it, so you can still have the ads and what not, but content producers aren't benefiting from it financially."?

content producers decide the level of advertising on thier videos iirc so if they aint gonna get paid they will just tske all the ads off thier videos resulting in a total loss for advertisers anyway

p sure this is just a push towards youtube red
