Beautiful, thank you Irene. Nature opens our soul and heart. I apologize for all the pain that we bring to Mother Nature and to animals. Bonobos, thank you for showing us the right path...We are going to improve, to grow inside. I swear. We must make this choice.
@Sawyer R How about being polite in discussions?
I guess u don’t like the videos of the mother bonobos eating their children! Go ahead watch it, these Ted talk people are criminals
I had the opportunity to work with Bonobos. They are amazing creatures. They are very human-like.
In the image, Susie has beautiful, deep eyes. What personality the Bonobo possesses.
Both bonobos and chimps are out closest living relatives (bonobos a bit more close). But both of them show many different behaviours
I wanted to watch this video but the objectivity went out of the window when she said they "make love" all the time.
Thank you
I have often said that I was born on the wrong planet. I don't understand why people abuse and kill each other. But now I'm thinking, maybe I should have been born a Bonobo. They seem to share a very similar outlook on life.
The way she talks about how the monkey came to her in her dreams and how she had her own “language” with the monkey makes me not trust her at all. Like half the talk was just her giving anecdotes about how she feels about the monkey, not anything concrete either like that one monkey that actually learned sign language. Smh.
RUclips The Zeitgeist Movement Moving Forward to see how we can transition from a monetary system to a natural law resource based economy. Money holds us back. A wage/ debt slavery based monetary system prevents the empathy side of our nature.
Money has existed since at least the dawn of civilisation.
@@jakepenfold8092 and how does that make it nece or right?
@@jakepenfold8092 no not the dawn of civilization. it was made use of only in royalty for a long time even up until alexander the great.
Great apes have such a profound impact on some who experience them on an intimate level. Its a very subjective experience but a great experience, nonetheless..😅😊❤
Unspeakable evils would have to be committed globally in order to lay the foundation of a successful bonobo-style human civilization.
Thank you 🙏 I can relate to your words very closely🤗
a m a z i n g!! Thank you for this talk.
Having contact w/ another sentient being from our ecosphere can be profound & give us revolutionary perspectives. Any one who doubts this, should read the book, "Ishmael", by Daniel Quinn......
This answers the question as to the basis of our morality and it's a stunning answer. We have both the tendencies of chimps and bonobos. This is information that can be used in a discussion about god's necessity for morality to exist, no it doesn't morality it built in.
Exactly, the reason we consider some things moral and others immoral is because the behaviours we perceive as being moral are behaviours that are conducive to collaboration and thus, survival. Not only is being kind a virtue, it leads to greater outcomes for all parties involved.
@@supernsansa works for me
I think they've got it right. But they also have good resources.
Long live the Bonobo (Pan family). We should change the name of owr race into Bonobians or Panians. Sounds crazy?! Actually, not.
Only Superstitious fearing Faith holds us back 🌏
Everyone has brown eye's ❤
So, did Indira Gandhi and Golda Meir have the bonobo gene or the chimpanzee gene? Because both of them could go toe to toe with the male politicians in their respective countries.
It will be better to have no future at all than a future like bonobos 😂
Reject bonobos, embrace chimpanzee
Chimps are violent pigs ruining earth
Based

Was this a meltdown?
