Primatologist Jane Goodall Shared Desire to Launch Trump and Musk on Single-Journey Space Mission

After devoting her life researching chimpanzee conduct, Jane Goodall became an authority on the combative nature of leading males. In a newly published interview filmed shortly before her death, the celebrated primatologist revealed her unconventional solution for dealing with certain individuals she viewed as displaying similar traits: transporting them on a non-return journey into the cosmos.

Legacy Interview Discloses Honest Views

This notable insight into Goodall's mindset emerges from the Netflix film "Famous Last Words", which was recorded in March and maintained confidential until after her recently announced death at nine decades of life.

"There are people I'm not fond of, and I would like to put them on a spacecraft and send them all off to the world he's sure he's going to discover," commented Goodall during her discussion with Brad Falchuk.

Particular Personalities Mentioned

When inquired whether the tech billionaire, famous for his questionable behavior and associations, would be included, Goodall responded affirmatively.

"Certainly, without doubt. He would be the organizer. You can imagine the people I would place on that spaceship. In addition to Musk would be Trump and several of Trump's dedicated followers," she announced.

"Furthermore I would add Vladimir Putin on board, and I would put Xi Jinping. Without question I would add the Israeli leader in there and his political allies. Place them all on that spacecraft and send them off."

Past Observations

This was not the initial instance that Goodall, a supporter of environmental causes, had shared negative views about Donald Trump in particular.

In a previous discussion, she had noted that he displayed "comparable kind of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he's competing for leadership with an opponent. They stand tall, they strut, they portray themselves as much larger and combative than they may actually be in order to intimidate their opponents."

Leadership Styles

During her last recorded conversation, Goodall elaborated on her analysis of leadership types.

"We get, interestingly, two categories of dominant individual. One does it all by aggression, and since they're powerful and they fight, they don't remain very long. Others do it by using their brains, like a younger individual will just confront a superior one if his ally, frequently a sibling, is alongside him. And research shows, they endure much, much longer," she detailed.

Group Dynamics

The renowned scientist also examined the "politicization" of conduct, and what her detailed observations had shown her about combative conduct exhibited by groups of humans and primates when confronted with something they perceived as dangerous, despite the fact that no threat actually existed.

"Primates encounter a stranger from a nearby tribe, and they get all excited, and the hair stands out, and they stretch and make physical contact, and they display these faces of hostility and apprehension, and it transmits, and the others catch that feeling that a single individual has had, and everyone turns combative," she described.

"It's contagious," she continued. "Certain displays that become hostile, it spreads among them. Each member wishes to get involved and become aggressive. They're defending their domain or battling for supremacy."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she believed comparable dynamics applied to humans, Goodall replied: "Likely, in certain situations. But I firmly think that most people are ethical."

"My primary aspiration is educating the upcoming generation of compassionate citizens, foundations and growth. But do we have time? I'm uncertain. These are difficult times."

Historical Comparison

Goodall, a London native five years before the beginning of the the global conflict, compared the battle with the difficulties of current political landscape to Britain standing up the Third Reich, and the "spirit of obstinance" exhibited by the prime minister.

"That doesn't mean you don't have periods of sadness, but then you come out and say, 'OK, I refuse to permit their victory'," she stated.

"It's similar to Churchill during the conflict, his iconic words, we will oppose them at the coastlines, we will resist them along the roads and metropolitan centers, then he turned aside to an associate and was heard to say, 'and we'll fight them at the ends of damaged containers since that's everything we truly have'."

Final Message

In her last message, Goodall shared motivational statements for those fighting against governmental suppression and the environmental crisis.

"In current times, when the planet is challenging, there continues to be optimism. Maintain optimism. When faith diminishes, you become indifferent and do nothing," she counseled.

"Whenever you want to preserve the existing splendor on our planet – when you wish to protect our world for the future generations, your grandchildren, their grandchildren – then think about the actions you take every day. Because, expanded numerous, innumerable instances, modest choices will make for great change."
