They know that before they ask the question.
But it always helps to make sure they know.

People are nuts. Nothing would surprise me at this point
It's called history buddy. It's how these terms have always been used. And if by "sissy" you mean "it's no longer considered socially acceptable to use ethnic slurs" then yes, the country has gone "sissy".
u have yet to show us how its racist to call someone a monkey or a duck or a cheetah
I have given you several links already showing the evidence. It's not my fault if you are too lazy to read them and confirm what I have said.
And who is calling people cheetahs or ducks? Calling an African American a monkey has a very specific meaning.
But, you're ok with calling black Trump supporters trumpanzees. Incredible!
Seeing as you want to "quarantine" California, your uninformed opinion about what is and isn't "ridiculous" is unimportant.
From what I hear, California wants to quarantine itself. The so-called 'Calexit' group wants to succeed from the U.S. I heard today they've even opened an embassy in Moscow. Interesting choice to open their first embassy.
Wouldn't hurt my feelings too much if they did succeed.

u cited opinion pieces that dont prove a thing. calling people animal names aint racist. its not racist to call someone a monkey, a camel, a pigeon, or a dog.
No buddy, those weren't "opinion pieces"--- they were historical facts.
And yes, it is racist to call an African American an ape, as I have demonstrated.
didn't humans "evolve" from apes according to the theory of science? u guys cant keep ur story straight. its racist to call someone a name from which all humanity "evolved" from? if anything, its a compliment.
Yes, science has concluded that humanity evolved from apes. That literally doesn't change anything, however. If you'd bothered to pay attention you'd know that historically Africans have been compared as apes to dehumanize them and to help justify keeping them in bondage, and later to justify discriminating against them.
Just because whiskey tango scumbags who celebrate traitors and bemoan the "good ole days" where you could burn people alive for daring to work for civil rights think it's not racist to call African Americans "apes" or "coons" or to call someone the n word.....means they are full of ****. It's not a "compliment"
so lets get this straight. u believe in "evolution". the great humanity we now have we owe to apes. and then its racist to call someone an ape.
u guys cannot get ur story straight
Because humans aren't still apes, genius. And calling somebody an ape is the oldest trick in the book to dehumanize them and justify all sorts of nasty bull****.
well according to u, we wouldnt be humans if it werent for apes. therefore we should take much pride in apes as we "evolved" from them.
u guys cannot get ur story straight.
No, we wouldn't be. But we aren't still apes, and dehumanizing people by calling them apes has a long and horrific history. Read up on the Belgian Congo sometime if you want to lose your lunch.
how is it dehumanizin if apes are responsible for humans. apes are some of the smartest animals. if anythin, its a compliment. id be much more offended if someone called me a squirrel.
It's dehumanizing because people don't view apes and humans as equals, obviously. We evolved from them, becoming smarter, stronger, etc.
Nobody really cares about your opinion on squirrels. Culturally it is blatantly racist to refer to African Americans as apes. Nobody justified keeping white people as slaves well into the 19th century on the basis that white people were less then human.
if we came from apes, then how is it dehumanizing? apes made human beings who they are (according to "evolution")
How do you know he wasn't a Trump supporter?
