Primatologist Jane Goodall Revealed Aspiration to Launch Musk and Trump on Single-Journey Space Mission

After devoting her life observing chimpanzee behavior, Jane Goodall became a specialist on the aggressive tendencies of alpha males. In a newly published interview filmed shortly before her passing, the celebrated primatologist disclosed her unique solution for addressing particular figures she viewed as showing similar traits: transporting them on a one-way journey into space.

Final Documentary Discloses Candid Thoughts

This remarkable perspective into Goodall's thinking emerges from the Netflix film "Famous Last Words", which was captured in March and preserved confidential until after her latest death at the age of 91.

"I know persons I don't like, and I wish to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and launch them to the planet he's convinced he'll find," stated Goodall during her interview with the interviewer.

Specific Individuals Targeted

When inquired whether the tech billionaire, known for his questionable behavior and connections, would be part of this group, Goodall responded with certainty.

"Yes, definitely. He'd be the leader. Envision who I'd put on that vessel. Together with Musk would be Trump and several of Trump's loyal adherents," she stated.

"Additionally I would put Vladimir Putin in there, and I would place China's leader. I would definitely include Benjamin Netanyahu on that journey and his administration. Put them all on that vessel and launch them."

Previous Criticism

This wasn't the initial instance that Goodall, an advocate of conservation efforts, had expressed criticism about the former president especially.

In a previous discussion, she had noted that he showed "comparable kind of actions as a dominant primate demonstrates when he's competing for leadership with another. They posture, they swagger, they portray themselves as really more large and hostile than they truly are in order to daunt their rivals."

Alpha Behavior

During her last recorded conversation, Goodall further explained her comprehension of dominant individuals.

"We get, notably, two categories of alpha. The first achieves dominance solely through combat, and since they're powerful and they fight, they don't endure for extended periods. Another group achieves dominance by utilizing strategy, like a younger individual will merely oppose a superior one if his friend, typically a relative, is with him. And research shows, they remain far more extended periods," she clarified.

Group Dynamics

The celebrated primatologist also studied the "politicization" of behavior, and what her comprehensive research had shown her about combative conduct displayed by people and apes when faced with something they viewed as threatening, even if no threat really was present.

"Primates observe a stranger from a neighboring community, and they grow very stimulated, and their hair erect, and they extend and make physical contact, and they've got visages of hostility and apprehension, and it transmits, and the remaining members catch that feeling that a single individual has had, and they all become hostile," she described.

"It's contagious," she added. "Some of these demonstrations that turn aggressive, it sweeps through them. Everyone desires to participate and engage and become aggressive. They're protecting their domain or fighting for control."

Human Parallels

When questioned if she thought comparable patterns were present in people, Goodall replied: "Likely, sometimes yes. But I truly believe that the majority of individuals are ethical."

"My biggest hope is nurturing the upcoming generation of caring individuals, foundations and growth. But is there sufficient time? I'm uncertain. It's a really grim time."

Historical Perspective

Goodall, a London native shortly before the commencement of the the global conflict, likened the struggle against the difficulties of contemporary politics to Britain standing up the Third Reich, and the "spirit of obstinance" displayed by the British leader.

"This doesn't imply you don't have times of despair, but then you come out and declare, 'Well, I'm not going to permit their victory'," she stated.

"It's like the Prime Minister during the conflict, his famous speech, we will oppose them on the beaches, we will resist them in the streets and urban areas, then he turned aside to a friend and allegedly commented, 'and we'll fight them with the remnants of shattered glass because that's all we've bloody well got'."

Parting Words

In her concluding remarks, Goodall provided inspiring thoughts for those combating political oppression and the climate emergency.

"Even today, when Earth is difficult, there remains possibility. Preserve faith. When faith diminishes, you grow unresponsive and do nothing," she advised.

"Whenever you desire to protect the remaining beauty on our planet – should you desire to protect our world for coming generations, your descendants, their grandchildren – then think about the actions you implement daily. Because, multiplied countless, a billion times, even small actions will create substantial improvement."
