They found a new way (Patreon)

Hey Laowinners,

Thank you to you guys for supporting me. The CCP/Chinese companies found a new way to silence me. They've been going through my channel, manually, and if I mention, or play ANY material that they "own", even though it's public domain, they claim the ENTIRE VIDEO and take ALL OF THE MONEY. YouTube's policy is that if I use 0.00001% of other content in my video, they can claim 100% of the ad revenue.

The CCP has been doing this with news footage I use (even though its fair use), and now Chinese companies (many of them right owners of background music) are doing it on fair use footage, or ads that I use in my video for material to critique etc. The idea is that if they keep claiming my videos, they make money, AND I am discouraged from continuing to make content.

So, thanks so much for supporting me here. Wouldn't at all be possible, otherwise. Love you all.
