yes thats right! you are a monkey,
Only in the same sense we're still animals, chordates, mammals etc. And arguable depending on your interpretation of cladistics. It all depends on if you'd count the most recent common ancestor of monkeys and apes as a monkey or not. I know people on both sides of the argument and TBH it's very academic and pretty irrelevant to what the evidence has to say about the processes involved.
Feeling insulted by the idea that all life on the planet is related isn't an argument against the evidence

take it with grain and salt..
It's funny how the only people who use the word "evolutionist" don't actually understand what evolution is, as your rant clearly demonstrated.
"Evolution is change in heritable traits of biological populations over successive generations." That one observable fact (and it is a fact) is all that it is.
Natural selection is just an explanation of the mechanisms that select one trait over another. It's the only successful model though many (such as the Nazis and Soviet Union) pushed others due to their beliefs. The Nazis were just wrong on that matter, but the USSR's "religious" enforcement of Lamarkism killed millions.
Genetics is (mainly) what explains where those traits come from.
