As far as the monetization of content goes, content creators are desperate because there is too much information out there. The people who make money with content these days are people who filter content and write for highly specific niches. I guess celebrity gossip and "Hottest Girls of Instagram!" also works pretty well as a content marketing strategy too. Give the devil his due.
One thing I hate about most content I get is how all the big stories of the day tend to creep in. I have a twitter account I use for personal marketing and I never ever post anything off topic or related to politics or whatever the hot meme of the day is. I only post information related to the very specific niche that I am covering. I pulled up my twitter feed recently and there are biotech people commenting on Greece. There are startup gurus retweeting Greece. If it's not Greece it's whatever is the hot topic of the day like <insert social issue that even saying you don't care about will result in social excommunication> or the Ukraine war or whatever. Frankly, I don't care, I don't have the time, it does not affect me personally. I have way too much stuff to think about already. This is why people don't pay for content. The supply is off the charts and the demand is not there and most people are just recycling crap that they read somewhere else anyway.
