Looks like seiji didn't know "monkey" is a strong racist term, and just used it to describe behavior. Still insulting but not racist.
Accidental racism is still racism, but this isn't even accidental.
There are two kinds of accidental racisms. The kind where the speaker means what he says, but does not identify it as being wrong. The second is where the speaker mis-speaks and doesn't actually mean to convey what the readers see as racist. I believe this is a case of the second.
My language isn't entirely confined to reality all the time. Sometimes there's crosstalk in inadvertent ways.
Sorry for any hurts.
Accidental deliberate misunderstanding is still deliberate misunderstanding.
The noble behavior of stoning people to death based on tribal affiliations doesn't really require dignified descriptions of the people.
Urban Dictionary barely mentions the word monkey may be racist. It's 3x more likely to be slang for girl parts.

Oh, well, if Urban Dictionary says it, it must be true.

This is why we have laws and not mob rule. All civilized nations have done away with capital crimes by this point in the timeline.
Is this deliberate or accidental sanctimonious groupthink topic derailing?
