Idk… I get that it could be interpreted as racist, and I also understand an increased alertness regarding such contents in the present context. But still, I’m tempted to give OP the benefit of the doubt. He provided his other inspiration in another comment and I kinda see how one could’ve made the connection between these two without a racist thought. The ape-man just looks like some of the apes in the Simpsons, I don’t think it’s supposed to be a black man’s caricature or anything.

That’s… A similar but very very different thing from this definitely racist comic.

Going to just jot you down as bad actor real quick here. You guys can pretend this isn’t the most blatant dog whistle all you want.
It’s The Picard Maneuver. Your virtue signaling is adorable.
That’s only related in the sense that there’s an ape, they don’t say any of those racist lines in the Simpsons episode.
“I hate every ape I see from chimpan-A to chimpan-Z” is literally in the excerpt I first linked.
