Yes, don’t call people monkeys. Particularly non-white people who have been called that as a form of dehumanization for hundreds of years.

Lmao the only time I called someone a monkey was because they were really good at climbing trees. Never heard anyone associate a monkey with a POC. Must be an American or European thing.
