Primatologist Jane Goodall Expressed Aspiration to Send Trump and Musk on Non-Return Trip to Space

After spending decades researching chimpanzee conduct, Jane Goodall became a specialist on the combative nature of alpha males. In a freshly unveiled interview documented shortly before her death, the renowned primatologist shared her unique solution for dealing with particular figures she viewed as exhibiting similar characteristics: transporting them on a non-return journey into space.

Legacy Interview Reveals Honest Views

This notable insight into Goodall's mindset emerges from the Netflix documentary "Final Words", which was recorded in March and maintained confidential until after her recent passing at the age of 91.

"I've encountered persons I don't like, and I would like to put them on one of Musk's spaceships and launch them to the world he's certain he's going to discover," commented Goodall during her conversation with her interlocutor.

Specific Individuals Mentioned

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

"Certainly, without doubt. He would be the organizer. You can imagine who I'd put on that vessel. Along with Musk would be Trump and some of Trump's real supporters," she announced.

"And then I would include Russia's leader among them, and I would place China's leader. I'd certainly put Benjamin Netanyahu in there and his political allies. Put them all on that vessel and send them off."

Previous Criticism

This wasn't the first time that Goodall, an advocate of ecological preservation, had expressed criticism about the former president specifically.

In a previous discussion, she had observed that he exhibited "the same sort of conduct as a male chimpanzee will show when battling for dominance with a rival. They posture, they parade, they present themselves as significantly bigger and aggressive than they may actually be in order to daunt their opponents."

Alpha Behavior

During her last recorded conversation, Goodall further explained her understanding of leadership types.

"We observe, remarkably, two kinds of leader. One does it solely through combat, and due to their strength and they combat, they don't endure indefinitely. Others do it by using their brains, like an aspiring leader will only challenge a more dominant one if his companion, frequently a sibling, is supporting him. And you know, they endure significantly longer," she clarified.

Social Interactions

The renowned scientist also examined the "social dimension" of behavior, and what her detailed observations had taught her about hostile actions shown by people and primates when faced with something they viewed as dangerous, even if no risk truly existed.

"Chimpanzees see a stranger from an adjacent group, and they get highly agitated, and their hair erect, and they reach out and contact each other, and they display visages of anger and fear, and it catches, and the remaining members absorb that sentiment that one member has had, and the entire group grows combative," she detailed.

"It's contagious," she continued. "Various exhibitions that grow violent, it permeates the group. Everyone desires to become and join in and become aggressive. They're defending their domain or battling for supremacy."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she thought similar behaviors occurred in human beings, Goodall responded: "Likely, on occasion. But I truly believe that the bulk of humanity are good."

"My main objective is nurturing the upcoming generation of caring individuals, roots and shoots. But is there sufficient time? I don't know. It's a really grim time."

Historical Context

Goodall, a London native five years before the commencement of the World War II, equated the battle with the difficulties of contemporary politics to Britain standing up Nazi Germany, and the "determined resistance" shown by the British leader.

"That doesn't mean you won't experience moments of depression, but then you come out and declare, 'Alright, I'm not going to permit their victory'," she stated.

"It resembles the Prime Minister during the conflict, his famous speech, we will oppose them along the shores, we will resist them in the streets and metropolitan centers, afterward he commented to a companion and reportedly stated, 'and we'll fight them using the fragments of shattered glass because that's all we actually possess'."

Parting Words

In her last message, Goodall shared inspiring thoughts for those fighting against authoritarian control and the climate emergency.

"At present, when the world is challenging, there still is possibility. Don't lose hope. If you lose hope, you become indifferent and remain inactive," she recommended.

"Whenever you desire to protect what is still beautiful in this world – should you desire to save the planet for the future generations, your descendants, their grandchildren – then consider the decisions you make every day. Because, expanded countless, a billion times, modest choices will create significant transformation."
