It's something that made Twitter pointless when I had an account there (under a pseudonym) and I am subject to the same problem on YouTube for most of my replies (again, under a pseudonym). I find shadowbanning to be a form of psychological coercive abuse.
If this is happening to people paying for X Premium, there could potentially be an argument to be made in court for obtaining money by deception. Might be class action lawsuit time with someone who has the money to test it in court.

The only upside to YouTube is that there are at least euphemisms to get around some of the shadowbanning.
A lot of people replace "Jews" with "Chewies", gays/lesbians/faggots with "alphabet soup", and any number of other terms related to politics or DIE/ESG nonsense with something recognisable but yet isn't easily detectable by the AI.
That doesn't work for me, I could write a completely innocuous post and it will still be shadowbanned. I haven't figured out what determines what gets shadowbanned but I have known comments with no banned terms and yet it won't shown up in a private tab.
Check your opsec. Linking accounts, same browser user agent, cookies, all these are datapoints (clues) that you're up to "naughty speech". Technically IP can also be used but that's the nuclear option because even DEI networking goons understand a big network will NAT you.
