The virus known as Monkeypox was named because it was first discovered in 1958 IN A COLONY OF MONKEYS! Accuracy should NEVER be substituted in order to appease the most ignorant in our society.
And if anyone is so shallow as to take offense by it, my advice to them would be to take a heavy dose of "GET OVER IT" followed by a daily supplement of "NOBODY GIVES A **** IF YOU'RE OFFENDED", and they might very well recover quickly. And if they don't, who cares?

Others in our absurdly "politically correct" environment have been forced to resign or have been reprimanded for ever using it, and that kind of dumbing down of our language to appease the stupid should NEVER be dictated by the dumbest in our society to those of us with a brain!
