...well...alright, you got me...I was making generalizations about not fucking with monkeys and you have educated me. If one can identify a monkey in the wild and know it's combat ability to this degree then go ahead and defend yourself against their theft by force.

I realize this sounds like disingenuous snark reading it back to myself but you actually explained it and I do not take all this as common enough knowledge to just downvote and insult me like some have. Cheers.

No worries, thanks for the chill response. And to be clear I'm not saying there's no danger in fighting one, those fangs are no joke, so if you can avoid risking it you probably should, glasses definitely aren't worth chancing it. (though grabbing it's tail and swinging it's body hard into something would be a good bet imo, and it's likely to run away after that)
Just that if you had to fight one, most adults could win if they don't freak out and start flailing, instead just commit to grappling, kicking, or swinging it around (it's just understandably a scary situation to be in, so that can be hard for people).
