Hey fellow anons, I gotta share something that’s been weighing on my mind. So picture this: I’m chilling in my room, scrolling through some Planet of the Apes clips, and I can’t help but notice just how jaw-droppingly attractive Caesar and Noa are. Like seriously, their strength, intelligence, and those soulful eyes? It’s like they were designed to steal my heart!

Every time I see Caesar leading his tribe, I just think about how passionate and fierce he is, and let me tell you, I have some feelings, okay! I mean, who wouldn’t want a partner who could literally lift you up with one hand while discussing the philosophical implications of human evolution?! And then there's Noa—that perfect blend of wisdom and ruggedness. If I could just take a trip to their world, I'd have my own "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" moment.

I envision us swinging through the trees, hearts racing, sharing tender moments while the world melts away. Forget conventional dating; imagine cozying up with a chimpanzee who's not just intelligent but has the physique of a Greek god. I’d take my chances with big, furry arms wrapped around me while we plot our uprising against societal norms.

But hey, I know what you’re thinking, “What about the boundaries of interspecies romance?” To that, I say love knows no bounds, especially when it comes to the irresistible charm of apes like Caesar and Noa! Their charisma is off the charts, and honestly, I’d trade a hundred human dates just for one evening with them in their jungle palace.

So here I am, a hopeless romantic totally captivated by the allure of chimpanzees, dreaming of a world where I can be with my furry loves. Who’s with me? Let’s embrace our passion for these majestic creatures and celebrate the unbreakable bond between man and ape!

Yep, it completely ruined Goodall's fragile worldview. But it was pure kino.
>For several years I struggled to come to terms with this new knowledge. Often when I woke in the night, horrific pictures sprang unbidden to my mind—Satan [one of the apes], cupping his hand below Sniff's chin to drink the blood that welled from a great wound on his face; old Rodolf, usually so benign, standing upright to hurl a four-pound rock at Godi's prostrate body; Jomeo tearing a strip of skin from Dé's thigh; Figan, charging and hitting, again and again, the stricken, quivering body of Goliath, one of his childhood heroes.

As long as nothing major changes, probably not their population decline has slowed down drastically especially with all the nature reserves and restricted areas. All we need to do is crack down on poachers and that should be good. My suggestion for the poachers is just shoot them all. They're not people anyways.

You’re misanthropic if you admire literal subhumans (apes) honestly.
Most misanthropes wish humans would go back to being apes, just fruit picking sex-crazed jaguar snacks in a jungle somewhere. People who like humans wish we were more like wolves or something. Strictly monogamous and highly cooperative animals that live in family units and only have sex once a year for the purpose of reproduction. Throw in our other usual favorites (cats and birds of prey) and you get a monogamous, pack hunting super predator that flies. AKA modern man.

People like horses and cows too, but no one wants to be like one

>16 Batwa individuals wounded or threatened with killing (chased with guns, etc.)

>12 villages burned (some of the villages were burned more than once)a large number of displaced people (hundreds of families), some of them repeatedly

>17 people suffered arbitrary arrests and detentions in prison; 14 were later released when lawyers intervened, 2 died from poor prison conditions, one remains in jail on what are widely viewed as false charges

>6 serious threats by Congolese officials against NGOs defending Batwa rights
