Primatologist Jane Goodall Shared Aspiration to Send Trump and Musk on Single-Journey Trip to Space

After spending decades studying chimpanzee actions, Jane Goodall became an authority on the aggressive tendencies of alpha males. In a newly published interview documented shortly before her demise, the famous primatologist disclosed her unusual solution for handling certain individuals she viewed as displaying similar traits: transporting them on a permanent journey into outer space.

Legacy Interview Discloses Honest Views

This remarkable viewpoint into Goodall's thinking emerges from the Netflix film "Final Words", which was filmed in March and maintained secret until after her recent death at nine decades of life.

"I've encountered persons I'm not fond of, and I wish to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and send them all off to the planet he's sure he'll find," commented Goodall during her interview with Brad Falchuk.

Specific Individuals Targeted

When inquired whether the tech billionaire, famous for his controversial gestures and associations, would be included, Goodall answered positively.

"Oh, absolutely. He could serve as the leader. You can imagine whom I would include on that vessel. Together with Musk would be Trump and various Trump's loyal adherents," she stated.

"Furthermore I would add Vladimir Putin on board, and I would include China's leader. Without question I would add Benjamin Netanyahu among the passengers and his far-right government. Put them all on that vessel and dispatch them."

Past Observations

This was not the earlier occasion that Goodall, an advocate of ecological preservation, had shared negative views about the former president specifically.

In a 2022 interview, she had observed that he displayed "similar type of behavior as a dominant primate exhibits when vying for supremacy with an opponent. They posture, they strut, they portray themselves as really more large and combative than they truly are in order to frighten their competitors."

Alpha Behavior

During her final interview, Goodall elaborated on her analysis of leadership types.

"We see, interestingly, two kinds of alpha. One does it all by aggression, and since they're powerful and they combat, they don't remain very long. Others do it by using their brains, like a younger individual will merely oppose a higher ranking one if his friend, frequently a sibling, is with him. And you know, they remain far more extended periods," she clarified.

Collective Behavior

The celebrated primatologist also studied the "political aspect" of conduct, and what her detailed observations had revealed to her about hostile actions shown by people and primates when faced with something they considered threatening, despite the fact that no danger really was present.

"Chimpanzees encounter an unfamiliar individual from a nearby tribe, and they get all excited, and the hair stands out, and they extend and make physical contact, and they've got visages of rage and terror, and it spreads, and the rest adopt that emotion that this one male has had, and the entire group grows hostile," she detailed.

"It spreads rapidly," she added. "Some of these demonstrations that become hostile, it permeates the group. Everyone desires to become and join in and become aggressive. They're protecting their domain or battling for supremacy."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she considered similar dynamics applied to people, Goodall answered: "Perhaps, on occasion. But I truly believe that most people are decent."

"My biggest hope is nurturing future generations of caring individuals, beginnings and development. But are we allowing enough time? It's unclear. It's a really grim time."

Historical Comparison

Goodall, originally from London five years before the commencement of the the global conflict, equated the battle with the challenges of contemporary politics to England opposing Nazi Germany, and the "determined resistance" exhibited by the British leader.

"This doesn't imply you won't experience periods of sadness, but then you come out and say, 'Well, I'm not going to allow their success'," she remarked.

"It's like the Prime Minister in the war, his renowned address, we will oppose them at the coastlines, we will resist them through the avenues and the cities, then he turned aside to an associate and reportedly stated, 'and we will oppose them at the ends of shattered glass because that's all we've bloody well got'."

Final Message

In her final address, Goodall shared words of encouragement for those fighting against authoritarian control and the environmental crisis.

"At present, when the planet is difficult, there still is optimism. Preserve faith. If you lose hope, you turn into indifferent and remain inactive," she counseled.

"Should you want to save what is still beautiful in this world – if you want to save the planet for subsequent eras, your descendants, later generations – then think about the decisions you implement every day. As, replicated numerous, multiple occasions, modest choices will create significant transformation."
