Jane Goodall Expressed Desire to Launch Trump and Musk on One-Way Cosmic Voyage

After dedicating years studying chimpanzee behavior, Jane Goodall became an expert on the combative nature of dominant males. In a recently released interview recorded shortly before her demise, the celebrated primatologist disclosed her unique solution for handling certain individuals she viewed as exhibiting similar qualities: transporting them on a permanent journey into space.

Posthumous Film Unveils Honest Views

This remarkable perspective into Goodall's thinking emerges from the Netflix documentary "Last Statements", which was filmed in March and preserved confidential until after her recently announced demise at nine decades of life.

"I've encountered people I dislike, and I would like to place them on a SpaceX vessel and send them all off to the celestial body he's certain he'll find," commented Goodall during her conversation with her interlocutor.

Particular Personalities Identified

When questioned whether Elon Musk, famous for his controversial gestures and associations, would be part of this group, Goodall replied positively.

"Yes, definitely. He'd be the host. Picture the people I would place on that spacecraft. In addition to Musk would be Donald Trump and various Trump's real supporters," she announced.

"And then I would put the Russian president in there, and I would put China's President Xi. Without question I would add Benjamin Netanyahu in there and his administration. Place them all on that vessel and launch them."

Past Observations

This wasn't the first time that Goodall, a champion of environmental causes, had voiced concerns about the political figure in particular.

In a 2022 interview, she had noted that he exhibited "comparable kind of conduct as a male chimpanzee will show when vying for leadership with an opponent. They stand tall, they strut, they portray themselves as significantly bigger and aggressive than they may actually be in order to frighten their rivals."

Leadership Styles

During her final interview, Goodall further explained her understanding of leadership types.

"We get, notably, two types of leader. One type succeeds all by aggression, and because they're strong and they battle, they don't remain for extended periods. Others do it by utilizing strategy, like a younger individual will just confront a higher ranking one if his ally, frequently a sibling, is alongside him. And you know, they endure significantly longer," she clarified.

Group Dynamics

The celebrated primatologist also analyzed the "politicization" of behavior, and what her extensive studies had shown her about aggressive behaviors displayed by groups of humans and apes when faced with something they viewed as threatening, despite the fact that no risk truly existed.

"Primates see an unfamiliar individual from a nearby tribe, and they grow very stimulated, and the hair stands out, and they extend and make physical contact, and they display expressions of anger and fear, and it catches, and the remaining members absorb that sentiment that a single individual has had, and the entire group grows combative," she described.

"It spreads rapidly," she noted. "Some of these demonstrations that become hostile, it spreads among them. They all want to participate and engage and grow hostile. They're defending their territory or competing for dominance."

Similar Human Behavior

When inquired if she thought similar dynamics occurred in human beings, Goodall answered: "Probably, in certain situations. But I strongly feel that the majority of individuals are decent."

"My main objective is nurturing future generations of caring individuals, foundations and growth. 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 start of the the global conflict, likened the fight against the difficulties of contemporary politics to the UK resisting the Third Reich, and the "spirit of obstinance" displayed by Winston Churchill.

"This doesn't imply you won't experience periods of sadness, but eventually you emerge and say, 'Well, I'm not going to permit their victory'," she remarked.

"It resembles Churchill during the conflict, his famous speech, we'll fight them on the beaches, we'll fight them along the roads and urban areas, afterward he commented to a companion and reportedly stated, 'and we will oppose them using the fragments of broken bottles as that's the only thing we truly have'."

Final Message

In her last message, Goodall provided inspiring thoughts for those combating governmental suppression and the ecological disaster.

"In current times, when Earth is challenging, there still is hope. Maintain optimism. If you lose hope, you become unresponsive and do nothing," she recommended.

"And if you desire to save what is still beautiful on our planet – when you wish to save the planet for coming generations, your descendants, later generations – then consider the actions you implement every day. As, multiplied a million, innumerable instances, modest choices will create substantial improvement."
