Yes, context. Absolutely.When me and my brother work together I call him my Monkey.
My daughter gets called monkey by her parents quite often as well.
Anyway, I guess it's all in context (except in politics, then it will be something to cry about).

Lampooning or teasing based on behavior is ok, as with the DA parliamentarians in this case. Black people can also be the subject of this, the problem starts if symbols that were used in a racist manner in the past are used. The past has contaminated this.![]()
Actually after reading this thread I am ashamed to be a ANC supporterI try to see the story from both sides and I come to realize that WE all behave like chimps. While the Titanic is going down we laugh at each other and keep ourself busy with nonsense. And the sadest part is, some ANC suporters in here seem to not know that the DA has more non white members then white. Our foreign forum members (I.E. Intel8080) must be ROFL at our 'monkey' styl African behaviour and problem solving. Shame on you all.
