    I know it is… But can’t you find another existing word? For example: “to deprive of life”. Or slay. Or anything. Unalive is… an adjective. Not a verb. Of course the whole censorship is a stupid thing.

      Language evolves in stupid directions sometimes.

      I actually only speak proto indo European because evolution of language is bad and wrong. If your true crime video said “deprived of life”, it would sound even worse. Goofy is better than pretentious. “slay” would probably also get you demonetized because its a well known and more mature synonym of kill. The entire point is to make a new word, so YouTube doesn’t have a chance to ban it.
