They are Great Apes from an evolutionary standpoint.
However, a monkey has a tail, while an ape does not.
Always remember that it scientifically accurate to randomly call any human being an ape at any time for any reason.
More important as a diagnostic is the ability to brachiate. This is why the Barbary "Ape" is misnamed. It's just a tail-less monkey.
Only Apes can "stick 'em up".
Monkey POCs

So what's the new name?
NAIDS
This is stuff right out of nazi Germany!
Great meme. Who's the guy who originated the Wojack cartoons? He's a fucking genius.
