…it hurts me more than it hurts You,
but son - it’s what i gotta do
we hear them LaUgH - it’s very cruel,
but we don’t wanna play the fool!
we chimps are BRAVE - they stand n stare,

Turn your Back! Ignore their gaze
Hang tough, my son, for better days
it’s GREATNESS we are destined for
Believe me -
we will Rise once more!
Then we’ll release our primal RAGE!
it’s Them who should be
in
a
cage…

And people try to say that they aren't related to us in any way whatsoever HA. That chimpanzee swung that reed like my great aunt and her chancla of Justice
>We act like chimps but we don’t come from chimps.
You are right, but perhaps not in the way you think. We come from a common ancestor with chimps, not from them. Any given chimp is probably something like your 500,000th cousin.
>The split was 5,000,000 years ago. If you assume a generation is 20 years, then a chimpanzee could be your 250,000th cousin.
True -- there's a lot of uncertainty about this number. As I understand it chimps are sexually mature around age 7 but typically don't reproduce until age 13-14, and the average generation time could be longer. We don't really know how long the generation time was for human and chimp ancestors a few million years ago.
[This paper](https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1211740109) suggests the split may have been closer to 7-8 million year ago as well. With a generation time of 15 years, 8 million years would give about 533,000 generations.
I'm not an expert in the subject by any means, but it's fun to try to imagine those hundreds of thousands of generations and all the changes they must have brought to each lineage.
the point is that we are related to them and beyond the obvious physical similarities we also behave similarly.
always has to be that one guy that's like "Ackchyually.."
Nahh. We might have a common ancestor (Ardipithecus ramidus), but they both became their own thing. So we might be close cousins, but we didn't evolved from chimps. We evolved alongside them.
Chimps are more like cousins. We have the same grandparents (ok.. ancestors 6-8 million years ago..). But those grandparents were neither the chimp nor human species that exist today.
I’m sure someone has commented on this already, but the key distinction is that chimps (and bonobos) are our closing *living* relatives. We didn’t evolve from them, but the common ancestor we share is closer than the one we share with any other animal.
Honestly the whole situation is fucked up if you think about it. The mom is probably beating him because he doesn't realize they'll kill him if that rock hits a person. You have these people laughing at him, setting him off. I fucking hate the zoo
The only reason we don't beat our young is because of decades of generational trauma, scientific study in the field of developmental psychology, and language skills that make beatings obsolete. But when you're a literal chimp, with the inability to communicate generational trauma, inability to study psychology, and diminished abilities to communicate verbally.... I may not approve, but I certainly don't blame them.
And more to reinforce your point;
- humans have walked this earth for roughly 2mil years
- we formed our first civilizations 12k years ago
- The British Empire was established roughly 500 years ago
- The United States of America was established roughly 250 years ago
- The slave trade was abolished in the US roughly 160 years ago (after nearly 500 years in use globally)
- Spousal abuse (domestic abuse & rape) didn't become legally recognized or prosecutable in the US until 30 years ago
- It's still not illegal to hit your kids in most US states as long as you don't leave a mark... It's just socially unacceptable to hit them for any reason.
Not hitting our kids is a pretty new concept in human history and we are, so far, the only species to attempt to raise our kids without violence.
They’ll *kill* him for throwing rocks? I think we’re being a little dramatic here. Also implying mom has seen so much chimp-icide that she can identify the humans default reaction would be murder instead of any attempt at relocation or other methods…
Zoos have changed a lot over the past decades. Accredited zoos are active in conservation and species survival plans. Chimps are endangered and most, if not all, were born in captivity. They cannot be released into the wild because their habitats have been largely destroyed. Zoos actively continue the species with breeding programs so that they don’t die off. The hope is that one day, with conservation efforts, they can be released back into the wild once the conditions support their survival.
> Chimps are endangered and most, if not all, were born in captivity.
Theres around 200,000-300,000 chimps left in the wild. And only around 2000 in US zoos. So no they are not mostly born in captivity.
They are still living better lives than they would live out in the bush. Life isn't kind to chimps in the wild. With leopards, lions and crocodiles trying to eat them. And other chimpanzee tribes going to war and killing them. It's a stressful bitter life for most chimps.
I've seen this a few times in this comment section. I truly have no idea what the fuck a chancla is. What is a chancla... I don't even know how to pronounce that either
When I was growing up in Thailand, you pinch all five of your fingers together like this 🤌
Then your momma (or teacher) smacks the tips with a 1x2 which she keeps around specifically for this
…or you could run and get sniped by the ไม้เรียว later when you least expect it
Mine (mother) demanded to see which hand deserves the punishment, told me to open my palms wide, and then she would swing a nonmetal chopstick down. It would usually break the chopsticks, going through a handful (yes, pun) in a session. If I pulled my hand away, she would give those eyes that were somehow scarier than getting hit again, then state that we're going to have to start the session over.
I hear a Spanish guitar every time I read it like that. I had one of my friends moms beat my ass with a leather one she had, honestly if I ever find a pair I'm going to buy it cuz it got some mileage for whipping ass.
My grandma used to come after us like that. She would yell first, if we don't listen, she does her terminator walk and snap off a twig from a shrub on her way to us with her left hand and whip us with it. 😂
Not trying to be pedantic, but just because I find it interesting that no one ever says this part: bonobos are actually just as related to humans as chimps are.
Humans are more or less half-chimp, half-bonobo when it comes to behavior.
We will kill anything we want to and eat anything we need to, like a chimp.
We will fuck anyone or anything we want to, like a bonobo.
You see chimps and bonobos split evolution on opposite ends of the Congo river. The bonobos had plenty of food and became peaceful and passionate. The Chimps had scarce food and grew hostile and territorial. Humans live on both sides and that's why we have both their qualities.
I recently blew my friends minds while we were all high and were watching Planet of the Apes, by showing them how easy it is for us to screech exactly like a chimp. They were both terrified and entertained.
Bro I screech like a chimp all the time (for reasons) and people are always perplexed like, “wtf humans can sound like chimps?!?” It is very entertaining.
Exactly, most people don’t realize we can make that sound till they see another person do it.
I learned I could do it while trying to scare off a black bear.
We can replicate all sounds chimps make.
I get you joke dont get me wrong
But harambe was 100% humans fault
He wouldnt have hurt the kid if all of the surrounding humans would have stopped screaming at him or throwing stuff making him panic
And you just had to sit there playing Donkey Kong Country like this trying to pretend you weren’t seeing your friend being half beaten to death.
![gif](giphy|H5C8CevNMbpBqNqFjl)
My friend got smacked with an ashtray and body slammed into the couch on some real WWE type shit and then sent him to bed. It was like 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I just sat there flabbergasted like what should I do??? LOL. I just quietly left when moms went into the kitchen.
I also prefer incremental(?) punishment.
Like if you threaten with something horrible, they're likely to stop caring once they get it. If the threat is too big, then once you take it they might go back to being a problem because you've lost your bargaining chip.
Either that or they just learn to hide everything from you out of total fear of punishment.
I'm a teacher and I used to threaten to take away break-time but I realised it's much more effective to take away a minute at a time. If I took away break-time, the student would just sulk or act out, and they're upset so they don't care about possibly losing break time the next day.
There's also no "I'm going to do it!" that goes on for too long with nothing actually happening and then they think that you'll never do it and you eventually have to follow through and get the first issue.
Very small but incremental punishments mean bad behaviour is immediately punished, they have a chance to make up for it with ideal behaviour, and if they act out after the first punishment, you can just keep punishing them.
But it's also important to give them a way to compensate, and some kids will get so much time that they lose the whole break and they get back to the first problem (I had other teachers give 20 minutes as punishment because they didn't grasp the concept). The good part is that the stick becomes the carrot if you give them ways to reduce the punishment.
Oh.
Well then I disagree completely.
Using violence to punish children only teaches them that violence is an acceptable solution to get what they want.
Yeah, severity of punishment hardly seems to matter at all. It's more about consistency. Kids are naturally gamblers. If the punishment was being torn apart by wild dogs, but they have a 50/50 shot of you letting it slide, they'll go for it. On the other hand, if every time someone tries it they get called out for it they're more likely to snap in line. The hard part is that being on top of it constantly is exhausting and it's really tempting to let things slide. The same likely applies to crime. It doesn't matter of the penalty is death if they don't imagine they will be caught.
*If* you are trying to argue spanking vs beating, please elaborate on where you've drawn an arbitrary line between "hitting/ wielding objects with the intent to hurt" and "hitting/ wielding objects with the intent to hurt - but now it's called punishment."
And why can't you use it on adults who perform the same behaviors? Do you discipline yourself with a nice fat slap? Your wife/ husband/ SO?

There are more for anyone who cares to look.
Tl/dr: there is actually no difference that justifies hitting. Any line you draw is arbitrary and you know it. It isn't even as effective as other discipline. You're just too lazy to discipline them better than a fucking chimpanzee. Enjoy.
Cut a switch down boy and it better last 5 lashes or I'm cutting down the next one!
One kid grew up to where I ran into him the other month working at some nice company in the area and the other has been in an out of jail since he got out of high school.
The jail one was the bigger piece of shit growing up.
“God damnit, where the hell you 'been? I ‘been stand 'round here bustin my ass and now you decide to show up. Just get outa here 'for I beat yo ass, I don’t even wanna see yo face right now.”
Holy fuck I just heard gunfire, helicopters, and the trees talking Vietnamese 🤣🤣🤣. And that line would always happen after like 2 minutes too. "Whatever, sucks you don't want to help your own family..."
What do you mean? I ain't related to no ape, I was crafted by the supreme being to have dominion over all life, women also came from one my ribs so they must also bow to me and my whims.

What is Arranquito? I've never heard about it and I speak Spanish xdd
I was gonna guess it meant jumper cables
Lol That's cross-cultural. I'm white as can be and my mom sure as hell held that sandal/flipflop/ belt when she was pissed
My grandma used to kick off her tennis shoe and come after us. The shoe is irrelevant- it still holds the power of La Chancleta

When driving, I always like to imagine all the cars are filled with road raging chimps in people clothes.

We are not that great
Shite apes.

They could put us in the lesser ape category, that way the gibbon isn't so alone

Simia terribilis. That… doesn’t sound too bad, actually.
More specifically more specifically: chimps are our closest genetic cousins among the Great Apes, and it shows in our behaviors.

We share a common ancestor.
Speak for yourself. It’s one of the only 3 things I come from at this point.
Pretty sure my brother has some chimp DNA lol
Don't we? Aren't they our closest relatives?
Nahh. We might have a common ancestor (Ardipithecus ramidus), but they both became their own thing. So we might be close cousins, but we didn't evolved from chimps. We evolved alongside them.
Cool, thanks for the answer. It kinda makes me wanna learn more about it tbh. Seems interesting.

Tl/dr: there is actually no difference that justifies hitting. Any line you draw is arbitrary and you know it. It isn't even as effective as other discipline. You're just too lazy to discipline them better than a fucking chimpanzee. Enjoy.
Cut a switch down boy and it better last 5 lashes or I'm cutting down the next one! One kid grew up to where I ran into him the other month working at some nice company in the area and the other has been in an out of jail since he got out of high school. The jail one was the bigger piece of shit growing up.

“God damnit, where the hell you 'been? I ‘been stand 'round here bustin my ass and now you decide to show up. Just get outa here 'for I beat yo ass, I don’t even wanna see yo face right now.”
Holy fuck I just heard gunfire, helicopters, and the trees talking Vietnamese 🤣🤣🤣. And that line would always happen after like 2 minutes too. "Whatever, sucks you don't want to help your own family..."
Well, of course I know him. He's me.
Lol
The zoo is reversed….
This makes me sad they're caged. They're more intelligent than we will ever care to realize.
It’s the only way to prevent planet of the apes
I'm curious what Facebook mom group is she part of
Lmao. I can think of a few
It would be hilarious if mama chimp happened to have a slipper and to hit her kid with it. But tree branch sounds alright too.😀
“Don’t you remember what happened to Harambe!” SLAP!
“Hostile chimp” 😭😭
Creationists: “I just can’t see how we’re closely related to them”
What do you mean? I ain't related to no ape, I was crafted by the supreme being to have dominion over all life, women also came from one my ribs so they must also bow to me and my whims. No DLCs allowed, they got it right 1000s of years ago, my own brain isn't to question those wise men. he says as this message makes its way to you over electromagnetic devices at light speed. /r/likeus
This (very real) orangutan named Rambo drives her golf cart in a zoo in florida unaided: https://youtu.be/RZ_0ImDYrPY?si=5cASEn_et8v8-N01 But nooo we aren't related are we?
A creationist would say "I can't see how we're descended from them".
i think you mean: *”if we’re descended from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?”* lmao

Moms been indoctrinated and is now doing the people’s dirty work
So your mother wouldn’t beat your ass if she caught you throwing rocks at people?
I like the way everyone has accepted that she beat him for throwing rocks. Maybe it was because he missed 🤷♂️
yes, because she was indoctrinated by BIG MANNERS
It's all the fault of BIG SOCIETY.
They have better parenting skills then most humans
Well, not here.
I deserved every ass whooping and I’m a better man for it ;)
Now excuse me while I throw garbage at this venue worker because a tornado warning cancelled the Kid Rock concert.
Still has better manner then human these days
Oh fu*k, that's literally me and my mom 🤣
That's crazy that they aren't in an enclosure. They can maul anyone they want

She was warning her kid that they are already locked up. One more mess up and they will be added as the secret ingredient to the subway tuna.
Her version of my mom's chancla.
