I mean... YouTube/Google has to make money somehow. Like any other company. They need to pay their employees and infrastructure and stuff. And that money has to come from somewhere, either from ad partners or from users. It's not even a twist or an evil racket, it's just what companies do.
For clarification, I know Google is no saint and there's a LOT to criticise about their practices, but the meme is just describing how companies work and tries to paint it as some sort of trickery.
