It will probably not be long before the word ‘monkey’ will not be found in usage in the English language. The word will be banned from public use by the oh so intolerant Left. That is the only safe place for the word to be if you are a conservative. Take a nostalgic look at the use of the word for one last time before it is yanked from this article.
As Written and Reported By Jack Hellner for the American Thinker:
When my children were young and they were jumping on the bed, we would sing, “Two little monkeys jumping on the bed, one fell off and hit his head…” It is not a racist song.
My older boy slept with a stuffed monkey for years. This is not racist.
We ate monkey bread for a delicious treat. It is not racist.
At a playground, a jungle gym is also called monkey bars. It is not racist.
A monkey wrench is not racist.
If any of us goes to the zoo and visits the primate house and says something like “monkeying it up” around the apes as they play, it is not racist.
Now we come to the news item about Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis, who used the word “monkey.”
DeSantis is under fire from the left for using a common turn of phrase about monkeying as he campaigned against leftist Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum, who is black. Here is some hostile-toned reporting from USA Today:
The Trump-backed DeSantis, who also won his primary Tuesday, called Gillum an “articulate spokesman” for “far-left views” during an interview Wednesday and warned Florida voters not to “monkey this up” by electing him.
Journalists know that the comment was meant to be a sarcastic reference to big…..
