The Fight for Localization

More like the fight for YouTube monetization holy crap!

I uploaded this video three times over the course of the last week, desperately trying to make my January deadline.

When I uploaded this video for the first time, it got hit with the little yellow $. Fun fact about my channel: I've NEVER been hit with this little bitch and I have no idea what did it.
I changed the title, just because I heard about it having an effect through some other YouTubers, sure enough, I changed it from "The Fight for Localization" to "Localization" and the yellow $ went away, it was green again, everything was alright.

Until I checked it the next day and the yellow $ came back.

So instead of getting it reviewed, I figured it was the "n-gro" quote and the minstrel picture that was in the original version of this video (which is now only available to the $5+ patreons, the only difference being one, single picture and me putting a dash in the word 'N-egro'), and I uploaded a new, censored version.

And it was immediately hit with a yellow $, I changed the title, still a yellow $, I went back to the original title, and it went green!
Then I checked it again 10 minutes later and it was yellow!
Then for the last 24 hours it was green again!

SO,
I uploaded a third version of the video, the one that's linked here and currently public, it went yellow, but I didn't touch it and had it reviewed, and it went green around lunchtime today, so I made it public.

And if they slap another yellow $ on this video I'm going to start drinking, heavily.

All in all I'm happy with the video, if a little frustrated.

The Bieber lines in English aren't a direct translation, and I think I might have been a little misleading about that in the video.

And the build up to the explosion in the BTS track only happens in the music video, I think? But the overall message of the video stays the same.

Thank you all for your continued support.

I literally could not do this without you.
