Jane Goodall Revealed Desire to Transport Trump and Musk on Non-Return Cosmic Voyage

After dedicating years researching chimpanzee behavior, Jane Goodall became an expert on the combative nature of leading males. In a freshly unveiled interview recorded shortly before her death, the celebrated primatologist revealed her unusual solution for handling particular figures she viewed as showing similar characteristics: transporting them on a non-return journey into space.

Legacy Interview Reveals Frank Opinions

This notable perspective into Goodall's thinking emerges from the Netflix film "Final Words", which was filmed in March and maintained secret until after her recent demise at 91 years old.

"I know persons I'm not fond of, and I wish to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and dispatch them to the celestial body he's convinced he's going to discover," commented Goodall during her discussion with her interlocutor.

Named Figures Mentioned

When inquired whether Elon Musk, known for his controversial gestures and connections, would be part of this group, Goodall replied positively.

"Yes, definitely. He would be the host. You can imagine whom I would include on that vessel. Together with Musk would be Trump and several of Trump's dedicated followers," she stated.

"And then I would add the Russian president in there, and I would place Xi Jinping. I would definitely include Benjamin Netanyahu on that journey and his far-right government. Put them all on that vessel and dispatch them."

Previous Criticism

This wasn't the first time that Goodall, an advocate of conservation efforts, had expressed criticism about the political figure especially.

In a 2022 interview, she had observed that he exhibited "comparable kind of behavior as a male chimpanzee exhibits when he's competing for supremacy with another. They stand tall, they swagger, they present themselves as really more large and combative than they may actually be in order to frighten their rivals."

Alpha Behavior

During her final interview, Goodall further explained her comprehension of dominant individuals.

"We get, interestingly, two categories of alpha. One type succeeds through pure aggression, and due to their strength and they fight, they don't last very long. The second type succeeds by utilizing strategy, like a younger individual will only challenge a higher ranking one if his ally, frequently a sibling, is alongside him. And as we've seen, they endure much, much longer," she detailed.

Social Interactions

The celebrated primatologist also studied the "political aspect" of behavior, and what her comprehensive research had taught her about hostile actions displayed by people and apes when faced with something they considered dangerous, despite the fact that no threat actually existed.

"Chimpanzees encounter a stranger from a neighboring community, and they grow all excited, and their fur bristles, and they reach out and make physical contact, and they've got these faces of anger and fear, and it catches, and the others catch that feeling that a single individual has had, and the entire group grows combative," she described.

"It spreads rapidly," she continued. "Some of these demonstrations that become hostile, it permeates the group. Everyone desires to participate and engage and turn violent. They're guarding their territory or competing for dominance."

Human Parallels

When asked if she believed similar dynamics occurred in people, Goodall answered: "Probably, in certain situations. But I firmly think that the majority of individuals are ethical."

"My main objective is educating the upcoming generation of compassionate citizens, beginnings and development. But is there sufficient time? It's unclear. It's a really grim time."

Historical Perspective

Goodall, a London native prior to the start of the World War II, likened the battle with the challenges of contemporary politics to England opposing the Third Reich, and the "determined resistance" exhibited by the prime minister.

"That doesn't mean you won't experience times of despair, but eventually you emerge and say, 'OK, I'm not going to permit their victory'," she commented.

"It resembles Churchill in the war, his famous speech, we will oppose them on the beaches, we shall battle them through the avenues and urban areas, afterward he commented to an associate and reportedly stated, 'and we shall combat them using the fragments of broken bottles since that's everything we truly have'."

Closing Thoughts

In her concluding remarks, Goodall shared inspiring thoughts for those fighting against governmental suppression and the ecological disaster.

"Even today, when Earth is challenging, there remains optimism. Preserve faith. When faith diminishes, you become unresponsive and do nothing," she counseled.

"Should you want to save the existing splendor in this world – if you want to protect our world for subsequent eras, your grandchildren, their grandchildren – then consider the choices you take daily. Because, replicated numerous, multiple occasions, modest choices will create great change."
