Oh. duh.
Charlton Heston said "take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape." in Planet of the Apes.
duh.
But then you look and they clearly have hands
So that line was really uncalled for.
There's a lot of things that were said and done in the past that we in the present have to make amends for.
And a lot of things being done in the present right now that the future will have to make amends for.
Maybe we can start--I have the microphone that can speak to all of humanity at once--maybe we can start by acknowledging that this man was under extreme fictional duress and he didn't really mean what he said in that moment. I don't know if they circle back to it later in the movie. I haven't seen it.

Your clarification that you had the mic that could speak to the rest of humanity made me imagine a representative of The Rest of Humanity was tentatively approaching you to wrest control of the mic from you but you turned that shoulder into em and gave them a stern rebuffing
yeah yeah, he was gonna wrap me up and take the mic and I was like
"take your stinking paws off me you damn dirty ape!"
