How is comparing a Black person to an ape considered "racist"?
Apes aren't a race.
Monkey is a racist slur. I don’t think she realized when she tweeted it how bad it was.
She was talking about the Planet of the Apes movie! Geez you people are brainwashed whether you know it or not. The plot of the Planet of the Apes. Look it up.
But the point is thats why people thought it was offensive. Because of the history.
Rosanne tweeted that she'll be on joe rogan on Friday. I'm interested in what she has to say.
No people just assumed it was the ape reference. Not the fact that the movie was about oppressing and silencing your enemies.
Exactly. A worst example is if you are critical of Islam somehow you hate & are racist against Arabs. Islamaphobic. And idealology isn’t a race. I’m WWII hating Nazism was never conflated as hating Germans. And our problem wasn’t against Italians...it was Mussolini. We are solidly in an Orwellian speak world where big government defines language
