Nope, they literally won't call Rafiki a monkey, because the character is usually played by a black woman... but I bet that not a single non-racist in the audience connected a monkey being called a monkey, with a black woman being called a slur.

It's like Lord of the Rjngs, when closet racists tell on themselves by associating Orcs with black people, when they don't represent any humans, not even subtextually.
