been researching genetics and noticed humans and chimps are much nearer chromosomewise than many species that successfully breed hybrids so, even tho ive always heard humans cant hybrid with any nonhumans, i looked in to it and found this interesting thing.
Joe rogan origin story.
he was born in 1967 🤯
“It’s entirely possible.”
A college buddy saw a newspaper ad (this was in the 80s) for a medical experiment project for $500. He went and it was for attempting to impregnate a chimpanzee. He thought about and said he’d be willing to do it only if: nobody ever finds out about his involvement, that the progeny (if any) be treated well, and he’d need a week to come up with the $500.
wait, he had to pay 500€?
I have a really hard time believing this is possible considering human/chimp hybrids are not already recorded as being a thing. Like every one of the people out there with the opportunity to impregnate a chimp has had the decency and restraint to not try? While at the same time treating each other as badly as we do? It must be the case that they’ve tried, and it just doesn’t work. 1967 Chinese scientists are for sure not the first ones to consider this.
valid points however…
arm ripping, face biting, fuck-u-up machines don’t really want to get it on with just anybody.
Do you have any idea how long it took me to train train that monkey how to suck my dick, without trying to peel it like a banana first?
please don’t screenshot a wikipedia article, or most text really
No, I would prefer it if they did.
Please keep screenshotting anything you want other people to see and post it. :3
How does that work for people who can’t see?
No one ever cared about this man. As someone in close relationships, with differently abled individuals, this was always just an easy way to train the AI better and well meaning fools ate the idea up and spread it like wild fire. Don’t be a sheep, you didn’t care about this until someone told you that you should misleadingly.

Maybe those scientists needed to touch grass.
Reminds me of “Facts concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and His Family” By H. P. Lovecraft https://www.hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/faj.aspx
Apparently this is just a thing China and Russia have been accusing each other of doing for decades. Like a rumor or an urban legend of sorts spread by governments to make each other look ridiculous.
However, the fact that we keep finding out governments have always used the money and resources they exploit from their citizens for these kinds of secret crazy ass stupid sci fi experiments (in addition to the resources necessary to spread rumors and propaganda about each other), in order to test the boundaries of human existence, should tell us that it’s never really been a problem of “those people in that country” as much as it is apparently human nature to allow certain kinds of people to keep coming to power.
Does humanity even have a reliable and affordable cure for most cancers at this point? Do we even have flying cars or robots that aren’t complete shit?
“Oh don’t you worry about all that, I have this idea for how we can make a man that is part chimpanzee and part human.”
Like honestly given the kinds of things we have found out decades after the fact governments actually did to other humans and sometimes their own citizens, it’s not even that hard to see how a rumor like that would be spread.
An example of something ridiculous a government might actually attempt updated for 2025: “I have this idea for achieving immortality using AI. The level of artificial intelligence necessary to take even a baby step towards succeeding doesn’t actually exist yet, and we might just end up tearing a hole in the fabric of reality while we try, but such is the cost of greatness and being the first (and in this case if that was the ultimate outcome, obviously the last).”
The fact that we keep allowing these same kinds of people to end up as our rulers without some kind of a global uprising is legit more surprising to me than it would be to learn that a government actually attempted to create a human chimpanzee hybrid in recent history. However, going by the source on the Wiki page, it just links to a quote apparently taken from an old Soviet news article from the 80s which is not even immediately available. What a shocker.
There’s been blips of uprisings like the Arab spring, but there’s really never been a global movement that I’m aware of. We’ve had two world wars fighting on behalf of these kinds of people. Like accepting complete chaos and destruction to help them hold on to their power, and we’re definitely on the brink of fighting a third one. It seems like most people loathe and resent them, and they’re always replaced with somebody new, but it’s just kinda surprising humanity has never had a world war or uprising fighting against them. I know that sounds pretty “I’m 15 and this is deep,” but that’s just something that’s literally never really occurred to me.
