The murder hornet is not the only bug in need of a politically correct name change. The latest disease to be spread through the establishment-endorsed LGBT lifestyle continues to be known by the politically incorrect term “monkeypox.” The leftists in charge of our largest city slither to the rescue:

New York City asked the World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday to rename the monkeypox virus to avoid stigmatizing patients…

Due to its characteristic degeneracy, NYC has seen more monkeypox cases than any other American city.

[NYC Department of Health Commissioner Ashwin] Vasan referenced the “painful and racist history within which terminology like (monkeypox) is rooted for communities of color.”

Actually, monkeypox is rooted in the community of gayness, not color. Its connection to the sacred (to progressives) practice of homosexuality inspired the World Health Organization to declare it a global health emergency, despite only five deaths worldwide. Practically the only way nonhomosexuals contract it is by being little kids left in the custody of the affected community.

Nonetheless, for moonbats everything is always about race. The WHO announced last month that it would change the name “monkeypox” for being racist, but hasn’t gotten around to it.

Why exactly is “monkeypox” racist? Like many exotic diseases (e.g., AIDS), it is an export from Africa. Blacks also come from Africa. The liberals who decide what we can and cannot say appear to equate blacks with monkeys.

Calling monkeypox “monkeypox” will be an official thought crime as soon as the authorities tell us what we are supposed to call it instead. In the meantime, don’t you dare draw attention to the way it is spread, or a Fox Business panel might denounce you as a bigot:
