Primatologist Jane Goodall Shared Wish to Transport Musk and Trump on Non-Return Trip to Space

After dedicating years observing chimpanzee conduct, Jane Goodall became a specialist on the hostile behavior of dominant males. In a freshly unveiled interview filmed shortly before her demise, the renowned primatologist shared her unconventional solution for handling particular figures she viewed as exhibiting similar qualities: transporting them on a non-return journey into outer space.

Final Documentary Reveals Frank Opinions

This notable perspective into Goodall's mindset emerges from the Netflix production "Famous Last Words", which was captured in March and maintained secret until after her latest demise at 91 years old.

"I've encountered individuals I don't like, and I wish to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and send them all off to the world he's convinced he'll locate," remarked Goodall during her conversation with Brad Falchuk.

Specific Individuals Targeted

When questioned whether the tech billionaire, famous for his disputed actions and connections, would be part of this group, Goodall answered with certainty.

"Oh, absolutely. He'd be the leader. Picture who I'd put on that spacecraft. Together with Musk would be Donald Trump and several of Trump's dedicated followers," she declared.

"Additionally I would include the Russian president among them, and I would include China's leader. I'd certainly put the Israeli leader on that journey and his administration. Put them all on that spacecraft and dispatch them."

Earlier Comments

This was not the initial instance that Goodall, an advocate of conservation efforts, had voiced concerns about Donald Trump in particular.

In a earlier conversation, she had observed that he displayed "the same sort of behavior as an alpha chimp demonstrates when he's competing for supremacy with another. They posture, they parade, they project themselves as much larger and hostile than they really are in order to frighten their rivals."

Leadership Styles

During her last recorded conversation, Goodall elaborated on her comprehension of dominant individuals.

"We observe, notably, two categories of dominant individual. One type succeeds all by aggression, and since they're powerful and they battle, they don't last very long. Another group achieves dominance by employing intelligence, like an aspiring leader will just confront a more dominant one if his companion, often his brother, is with him. And research shows, they remain significantly longer," she explained.

Group Dynamics

The renowned scientist also examined the "politicization" of behavior, and what her extensive studies had taught her about aggressive behaviors exhibited by human communities and chimpanzees when confronted with something they perceived as threatening, even if no danger actually existed.

"Chimpanzees observe a stranger from a neighboring community, and they become highly agitated, and the hair stands out, and they extend and contact each other, and they show visages of rage and terror, and it catches, and the remaining members catch that feeling that one member has had, and the entire group grows combative," she explained.

"It's contagious," she added. "Some of these demonstrations that grow violent, it spreads among them. Everyone desires to become and join in and become aggressive. They're guarding their territory or competing for dominance."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she thought the same behaviors applied to humans, Goodall replied: "Perhaps, sometimes yes. But I firmly think that the majority of individuals are decent."

"My biggest hope is educating the upcoming generation of empathetic people, roots and shoots. But are we allowing enough time? It's unclear. These are difficult times."

Historical Context

Goodall, originally from London shortly before the beginning of the World War II, likened the struggle against the challenges of current political landscape to the UK resisting the Third Reich, and the "determined resistance" displayed by the British leader.

"This doesn't imply you avoid having periods of sadness, but then you come out and say, 'OK, I refuse to permit their victory'," she commented.

"It resembles the leader throughout the battle, his renowned address, we'll fight them along the shores, we shall battle them through the avenues and urban areas, then he turned aside to a companion and allegedly commented, 'and we will oppose them using the fragments of broken bottles because that's all we actually possess'."

Closing Thoughts

In her final address, Goodall shared inspiring thoughts for those combating political oppression and the environmental crisis.

"At present, when Earth is challenging, there still is hope. Don't lose hope. When faith diminishes, you become apathetic and do nothing," she counseled.

"And if you wish to save the remaining beauty in this world – if you want to save the planet for subsequent eras, future family, their grandchildren – then consider the decisions you take every day. As, multiplied countless, a billion times, even small actions will make for great change."
