Dude, I love you like that younger cousin who annoyed everyone by using “money” as a substitute for “cool”, “neat-o”, or “the cat’s pajamas” for an entire summer, but anytime one compares a black woman or man to an ape, one is a racist. It’s a comparison that has a long and specific history of being used to dehumanize blacks such that they could be held as property (or given fewer rights after 1865 than whites) by society at large.

Even if someone doesn’t “know” that, it is still racist because the culture that created and perpetuates that comparison is racist (or “white dominant” if you prefer a little euphemism with your coffee).
