The WHO doesn't like "monkeypox" because it's "racist" and "stigmatzes" people.
I'm sooooo glad people are putting so much thought into words rather than, oh maybe, doing something productive.

I don’t understand what is racist about “monkey” unless you’re obsessed with race and facial features and whatever. I suppose you could say almost any animal resembles someone of some race.
And I’ll never forget the video I saw of an endless line of beautiful, young, almost entirely white men waiting in line for the monkey pox vaccine in New York City.
Renaming things that have been around forever solves nothing and just looks ridiculous.

What the fuck are they talking about? It was discovered in captive monkeys. What’s that got to do with stigmatizing people?
Scientists and experts have pushed since the start of the recent outbreak to change the name to avoid discrimination and stigma that could steer people away from testing and vaccination. Stigma has been an ongoing concern as the outbreak has largely affected men who have sex with men. In the United States, Black and Hispanic people have been disproportionately affected, data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show.
So CNN is saying monkeys are stigmatizing to gay men? Or is CNN saying monkeys are stigmatizing to black and Hispanic people? Or is it WHO that says we are supposed to associate monkeys with gay or black or Hispanic people?
Why the fucking hell can’t we just call it the monkeypox virus because it was isolated in monkeys? Because… that’s the truth?

Symbol over substance.

Why the fuck can’t the adults stand up and tell the petulant children to sit down and shut the fuck up?

Because we have little to no way of voicing that through a large media who is doing the opposite. All the institutions, media, education, entertainment, government, corporations etc. are now run and controlled by the petulant children being directed by the Global Elite puppet masters.
