even compared to their smaller monkey counterparts. They look wrinkly, aged and bald, while monkeys look cute and have aesthetically pleasing fur arrangements.

It's probably just that they look similar enough to us that they just look like very ugly people in our eyes. If they didn't look like us then we'd see them differently

I think OP meant greater apes like pongos and his mum.
Lesser apes like gibbons (are there any other lesser apes?) are monkey-like enough that I think he would exempt them.

I hate monkeys but I have to agree that they're cute.

Yeah, but humans don't have loose skin, facial wrinkles, nor do we all look like we're norwood 6.
Chimps, orangutang and gorillas just aren't very pretty to look at compared to monkeys and other animals.

It's because they have less fur than most animals.
Look up any naked mammal or mole species and you'd see they are ugly like the naked mole rat

Bonobos are particularly ugly. Chimps also but to a lesser degree. Gorillas look fine. Pongos are a mixed bag. Also remember how ugly people are without clothes, grooming and dental care.

Here's a scientific fact I just made up: being repelled by chimps was supposed to prevent us from having sex with chimps, but some dumbass did it anyway, causing millions to die of AIDS.

Being closely related to humans makes us apply human standards. But then again, they aren't even the ugliest. You got condors, warthogs, blobfish, dick-nosed monkeys, naked mole rats, maggots, goblin sharks, elephant seals etc.

AIDS was created by breeding cheap polio vaccines in diseases tissue.

The origins of canine distemper are similar. Pharma denies this because they need normies to trust them unconditionally. Just look at what one dodgy flu shot and a shitty hepB shot no one needed did to trust in the very concept of vaccines.

Chimps are appealing, it’s the bonobos that look like minstrel characters.

I imagine it's just some sort of mammalian method of preventing crossbreeding between animals close enough to do so.
Primates are obviously very visual about mating and it's no surprise that chimps, the closest to humans genetically appear the ugliest.

Warthogs look funny but I wouldn't consider them uglier than great apes. Naked mole rats however look like a dick with paws.

This makes sense in theory but in reality they look the least humanlike. See >>5023311 for comparison

I think it's just because they start to get closer to how *we* look and then we start to apply human standards to them, which of course they cannot look appealing under.

real answer. creationism is true, but not the way you're taught or how religious nuts try to push it. it's not just "one single entity created everything as it is last tuesday". there's dozens of creator beings up there, and there's tons of archetypes and shit being recycled. to cut it short, mankind is itself an archetype, and dozens of creator Gods above our reality can deploy mankinds, bears, big cats, big birds, anything. these animals aren't always updated after each cycle starts over.
mammoth > elephant
bear > badger > weasel
triceratops > chameleon
pelican > seagull > tern
eagle > hawk
capybara > porcupine, beaver > squirrel
there's too many examples to list. these "great apes" are of human origin. they're wrinkly and born looking old because their genome is worn out.
yes this is /x/ tier stuff, but it checks out. see for yourself.
human > poo in loo > gorilla > chimp > macaque > rat
but there's more. spider monkeys sure are different from macaques. how about those gorillas with kinky curly hair and empty, vacant eyes? they sure don't look like donkey kong.
but there's your answer. but there's more questions, like "then what's up with baboons" which points to some genomes being sampled and recreated as new animals, who then start degrading the moment they're deployed on earth.
earth has cycles of destruction, but it doesn't create. it only consumes.

Had me intrigued until the racism. I'm not offended and say much worse irl, but it's unnecessary and turns an absurdist notion into a retarded /pol/ venture. Your initial suppositions are somewhat related to certain Meso-American creation mythos.
