Jimquisition Wasn't Censored! I Had To Fix Something
While it'll cost me views, I had to take down today's video to make a quick correction. A picture of Japan ended up in the edit while we were talking about China, and while I know most people will be okay with that as an honest error, a simple correction in the comments and on social media isn't enough for me, especially given the dicey nature of the topic.
I can't stand errors in my videos, and the more controversial the topic, the more important it is for me to be correct, even on minor visual slips like this.
Don't worry, the video was not censored by China! It'll be back up soon, hopefully within the hour. I apologize for the inconvenience, especially if you were in the middle of watching it.

Responsible self correction?! On the INTERNET!? Jim, you stay classy and keep doing it right!
According to the Romines, that's evidence of negligence.
Yeah, I can understand why you'd want to fix that, especially given the ugly history between Japan and China.
Please don't buy new aviators as I have some on their way to you
*Squaky voice* that's self censorship!!
Might wanna fix your pronunciation of Xi Jingping. The X should sound like “Sh-“
I researched and researched that, and both a language scholar and a Chinese tutor said it should *not* sound like "sh". Now I didn't do it exactly how it should be done, because there's not much in the English language that can do it without throwing off the fluidity of a sentence, but I did my best to be more accurate.
Good job. It just builds anticipation lol
You'd best hope that patreon doesn't have any chinese investors.
Oh, god. :D "Youtube, don't censor me!" - comments won't load. Pressed F5, video unavailable. :D It's too perfect.
Here I was just blaming shitty wireless service. Thanks for the heads up.
It was a funny coincidence, I had just gotten to the joke at the end with YouTube shutting it down, tried to go for the like and couldn't. Glad to hear it was on purpose and not censorship!
Some might say OCD, I say responsibility. <3
Ha! I saw the whole thing! 😆 And totally missed the Japanese flag thing. But, I understand the overwhelming need to fix something in a published video. Guess I'll just have to watch the fixed video too. 🙂
I'm choosing to believe it was actually censored.
Will the new version have an updated title card? Or did you want to keep that goof?
Japan be like that cat in the girl blaming cat meme
