Jane Goodall Revealed Desire to Send Trump and Musk on One-Way Trip to Space

After spending decades observing chimpanzee actions, Jane Goodall became a specialist on the aggressive tendencies of leading males. In a freshly unveiled interview filmed shortly before her death, the famous primatologist disclosed her unusual solution for dealing with specific people she viewed as showing similar traits: sending them on a one-way journey into outer space.

Legacy Interview Unveils Honest Views

This remarkable viewpoint into Goodall's thinking emerges from the Netflix film "Famous Last Words", which was filmed in March and kept secret until after her latest demise at nine decades of life.

"There are persons I don't like, and I want to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and launch them to the planet he's certain he'll locate," stated Goodall during her interview with Brad Falchuk.

Specific Individuals Identified

When asked whether Elon Musk, known for his disputed actions and associations, would be included, Goodall responded with certainty.

"Certainly, without doubt. He could serve as the leader. You can imagine whom I would include on that spaceship. In addition to Musk would be Donald Trump and some of Trump's real supporters," she stated.

"Furthermore I would put Russia's leader in there, and I would put China's President Xi. Without question I would add the Israeli leader among the passengers and his administration. Put them all on that vessel and send them off."

Previous Criticism

This wasn't the initial instance that Goodall, a supporter of environmental causes, had expressed criticism about the former president especially.

In a previous discussion, she had observed that he exhibited "the same sort of actions as a male chimpanzee will show when he's competing for dominance with an opponent. They posture, they swagger, they project themselves as much larger and combative than they really are in order to frighten their rivals."

Alpha Behavior

During her final interview, Goodall elaborated on her comprehension of dominant individuals.

"We see, notably, two types of leader. The first achieves dominance through pure aggression, and due to their strength and they fight, they don't endure for extended periods. Another group achieves dominance by employing intelligence, like a young male will merely oppose a higher ranking one if his companion, often his brother, is alongside him. And as we've seen, they last far more extended periods," she detailed.

Collective Behavior

The famous researcher also examined the "social dimension" of conduct, and what her extensive studies had taught her about hostile actions exhibited by people and primates when encountering something they viewed as dangerous, although no risk truly existed.

"Chimpanzees encounter an outsider from an adjacent group, and they become highly agitated, and their fur bristles, and they reach out and make physical contact, and they've got these faces of rage and terror, and it transmits, and the remaining members catch that feeling that one member has had, and everyone turns combative," she explained.

"It's contagious," she continued. "Various exhibitions that turn aggressive, it sweeps through them. They all want to participate and engage and turn violent. They're protecting their territory or fighting for supremacy."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she believed the same dynamics occurred in human beings, Goodall replied: "Perhaps, in certain situations. But I strongly feel that the majority of individuals are decent."

"My biggest hope is nurturing the upcoming generation of compassionate citizens, beginnings and development. But do we have time? I'm uncertain. These are difficult times."

Historical Context

Goodall, born in London prior to the commencement of the the global conflict, compared the battle with the challenges of contemporary politics to England opposing Nazi Germany, and the "spirit of obstinance" displayed by Winston Churchill.

"That doesn't mean you don't have moments of depression, but subsequently you recover and say, 'OK, I refuse to permit their victory'," she remarked.

"It's similar to the leader during the conflict, his iconic words, we shall combat them on the beaches, we shall battle them along the roads and the cities, then he turned aside to an associate and reportedly stated, 'and we shall combat them using the fragments of damaged containers because that's all we truly have'."

Parting Words

In her concluding remarks, Goodall shared motivational statements for those combating authoritarian control and the climate emergency.

"At present, when the planet is dark, there still is possibility. Preserve faith. Should optimism fade, you grow indifferent and take no action," she advised.

"And if you desire to save what is still beautiful on our planet – when you wish to save the planet for coming generations, future family, later generations – then consider the actions you take daily. As, multiplied countless, innumerable instances, minor decisions will generate great change."
