Chimpanzee abuse

I just witnessed chimp abuse in this film and I'm triggered about it. Someone should speak up for that chimp as it cannot speak for itself.

That's a totally specist comment! Just because the chimps you've seen can't speak, you automatically assume all chimps are like that. Almost 2020 here, shm.

Excuse me, your comment just reached into my safe space and offended me.

So you don’t know that a Chimpanzee is a Great Ape, and that Great Apes have been taught sign language, you smug, self-satisfied ersatz-funny so-and-so.

Don’t quit the day job.

Oh well listen to you, Mr. Pseudo-intellectual! I didn't see THAT chimp signing any language, did you!? I stand by my original post.

On behalf of the Astronaut-American community, I take offense at the massive aeronautical appropriation this film represents.
