Nobody made any money from Spanish viewers... they made money from YouTube.

You are hellbanned btw.

They are making money from Spanish viewers - Spanish YouTube premium and Spanish advert impressions.

YouTube makes money from Spanish YouTube Premium subscribers and Spanish companies buying ad slots. Spanish YouTubers make money from YouTube.

YouTube is operated by Google Ireland Limited, which is not in the US, so your base argument is flawed...

I don't know which Alphabet subsidiary the payments to creators actually come from, but YouTube itself is headquartered in San Bruno, California; not Ireland.

I believe the HQ location has no bearing on the entity you're doing business with. The one in the YT terms & conditions as of now is Google Ireland.
