A PRIMER ON MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS WITH RESPECT TO MOTIVATING PRIMATES
Anyone who has studied psychology has likely been exposed to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
"Maslow's hierarchy of needs is an idea in psychology proposed by American psychologist Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in the journal Psychological Review.[1] ...
Moreover, the hierarchy of needs is used to study how humans intrinsically partake in behavioral motivation. Maslow used the terms "physiological", "safety", "belonging and love", "social needs" or "esteem", "self-actualization" and "transcendence" to describe the pattern through which human needs and motivations generally move ... The goal in Maslow's hierarchy is to attain the level or stage of self-actualization.[9]"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow's_hierarchy_of_needs
The theory proposes that first and foremost that humans (primates) are mostly motivated by their survival (and/or per our research, the survival of others and/or the survival of tangible and/or intangible nouns [person, place, or thing]), represented by their physiological needs to access the resources required to survive.
Based on our research, survival -- which seems to be primarily governed by the crave/want/need center of the brain, the hypothalamus (responsible for hunger, thirst, and sexual/mating/reproduction cravings, mood, comfort, and aggression) -- also includes reproduction (legacy or survival of the species), and/or future survival (for example a soldier fighting and/or dying for their God, country/constitution, their people, their family, their troop, and/or their way of life/culture) -- which per Heraclitus the Greek are not static but subject to constant change -- "the only thing that is constant is that everything will change, or "no person washes their foot in the same river, because it is never the same foot, nor is it ever the same river".
More simply, the first tier of human (primate) motivation is largely determined by the hypothalamus crave, want, and/or perceived needs center of the brain, linked to the survival of one's self and/or the survival of others (tangible and/or intangible).
Scarcity research, when combined with hypothalamus, neurochemisty, economics, and psychological research has determined that the perceived scarcity and/or abundance of different resources is what governs the pleasant or aggressive mood of others (primates and other animals).
For example, animals will cannibalize their own species and/or their own children when faced with food scarcity and/or other survival stressors. Conversely, an interview with Monterey Aquarium staff by staff now at UpRights News revealed that they used to keep at least one great white shark in the same tank as other fish, and as long as that shark was properly fed, the shark wouldn't attack other fish in the tank (and/or not as much is a reasonable inference).
Animals with access to some, most, and/or all of the resources they perceive they need to survive have a perceived abundance mentality or satisfied hypothalamus are less aggressive (anti-social) and more pleasant or happy (social). Those with perceived scarcity for the resources required to physically, mentally, and/or spiritually survive will have a stronger hypothalamus response or craving for increased access to that or those resources, increasing their aggression within the lymbic systems of their brain, lowering the fear in their amygdala, resulting in less of a flight (passive) reaction and more of a fight or confrontational reaction, in a bid to access the perceived resources required to survive.
Accordingly, happiness and anger are largely driven by perceived access to, perceived satisfaction (marginal utility in economics) with, and/or the resources perceived as required to survive (food, water, sexual mate(s), and/or other tangible/intangible perceived resources, for example the perceived need for "freedom", justice, mating preferences, cultural protection, active measures-polarized tribe protection, peace/downtime, and/or personal existential philosophies like God, but not limited to the same).
Safety is the next level of motivation, and by extension one could view safety as a perceived imminent and not actual threat to survival, or said differently, a perceived imminent threat to the perceived resources required for survival of self, others, and/or other tangibles (one's country and/or one's perceived country of origin other than African) and/or intangibles (love of country, a loving and all-powerful God, and/or resistance to change as some examples).
Tribalism is the next level of motivation, and where after survival and safety, humans are largely motivated by inclusion in a tribe.
HOW GLOBAL ELITES, THEIR CULT LEADERS, AND THEIR INFLUENCERS WEAPONIZE MOTIVATION
Here it is important that "influencers", cult leaders, politicians, companies -- and others seeking power over the minds and thus bodies of others -- weaponize these three primal levels of motivation by engineering perceived scarcity, and thus perceived threats to existence, to mobilize "sacrifices of blood and treasure" (a quote from Jeffrey Epstein's and Privilegium maius'-forged UK/EU royals' Hans Adam of Lichtenstein). More simply, beware anyone trying to tell you your and/or others' survival and/or salvation is at stake if you and/or others don't do what they want you to do -- and where cult leaders (sociopaths, Machiavellians, narcissists, and/or sadists) are infamous for financial exploitation/ruin/fraud/embezzlement/theft, legal exploitation/crime, sexual predation/rape/molestations, and/or incitement to commit crimes.
Trump's cult of personality is an example of these cult leadership tactics employing the same, posturing that he is God/Jesus/chosen one/second coming, who
(1) needs to be saved by others/followers/the deceived -- and yet God/Jesus is the entire universe and creator of the universe, and is all-powerful, and thus doesn't need specs of dust like Trump, men, women, or cult followers to save God, because God can or should be able to save God with all the power in the universe, outside of human intervention; and/or
(2) specifying and/or implying that creation, faith, the country, culture, God, the world, and/or other active measures' tribal polarizations (weaponized natural differences in any population as a divide-and-conquer tactics, to divide an otherwise naturally social or united people and species into antisocial warring tribes) may result in his cult followers facing extinction, dilution, replacement, and/or other existential survival threats -- which per cult leader Trump can only be saved by Trump (a classic cult leadership tactic, only they can save the cult followers, world, God, et cetera) -- by reelecting Trump (who faces 91 felonies and needs to be reelected into power over the justice system to destroy the country to be able to avoid going to jail and losing most of his assets for only some of the crimes he has been held accountable for over decades of organized crimes) -- and yet if Trump were God/Jesus, then Trump would have never been indicted on 91 felony counts (because he would have followed the law instead of constantly violating the same as required by the bible in Romans 13) -- and if Trump were God/Jesus, outside of (the corrupted GOP SCOTUS majority installed by Trump and the judges he illegitimately installed after a treason and elections conspiracy with Russia) non-human intervention would have made all of this immediately go away without overt furtherance of a RICO criminal conspiracy to obstruct and corrupt the charges against Trump.
More simply, the fact that Trump committed all of these crimes and more and was indicted for just some of these crimes is proof alone that Trump isn't God nor is he Jesus, and where in Trump's inner circle he is infamous for his hatred of Christianity, specifying that Christianity is "bullshit" and a "racket", that Christians are "idiots", "fools", and "schmucks", and that Christian leaders are "pieces of shit", and somehow is able to still deceive others into believing Trump is divine. Christians don't need Trump to save God, as God is powerful enough to save God without human intervention. Christians needs to save themselves, their altruistic and love-based value system, and the teachings of Jesus from Trump, is what needs to happen.
More simply, Trump and the rest of Jeffrey Epstein's and Russia's crime syndicate have weaponized the hypothalami of those they were able to deceive into believing they, others, and/or tangible and/or intangible things face certain extinction and/or scarcity if Trump isn't granted the power over the justice system (and purse of taxpayers) to evade 91 felonies, which is how Trump motivates with his fear his cult followers, by deceiving them into believing they face extinction (when the truth is that treason, espionage, and/or sedition laws would have Trump face extinction, but for the ongoing RICO obstruction and obstruction barring his required prosecution and conviction, as a matter of law).
But Jeffrey Epstein's and Russia's Trump isn't the only one weaponizing these two primal levels of primate motivation -- as Jeffrey Epstein's and Russia's crime syndicate have also been doing the same -- to not just help Jeffrey Epstein's and Russia's Trump family, but to help the failed billionaire experiment, where (officially) less than 3000 billionaires (more likely 10,000 or more, because self-proclaimed "royals", other dictators, and their trillionaire weath status isn't counted on the lists of the richest people) control the lives of more than 8 billion people around the world.
The fact of the matter is that 8 billion people could easily eliminate all of the failed billionaire experiment exploiting, harming, and killing them for profit in less than 24 hours -- and so they use their ill-got wealth to influence others with misinformation -- to deceive some portion of the 8 billion people to worship and support them, finance them, and/or lay down their lives for them using cult of personality and other tactics, like the techniques of neutralization, DARVO, defensive projection, principles of influence, weaponizing Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and/or other weaponizations of human (primate) psychology.
More simply, the criminal ruling elite are a very small minority, and so they need to deceive and scare at least some others into supporting them enough to lay down their lives, or else they would be removed from power.
Accordingly, they buy up, own, influence, and/or control as many communications channels, social media sites, news sites, news distribution sites, marketing channels, email systems, space/satellite programs, communications infrastructure, military contracting companies, private schools, and/or politicians, lawmakers, and/or law enforcers as possible to control the narrative with fake news, and accuse anyone trying to bring evidence against them of being radicals (and yet they are usually the ones acting like radicals, for example Trump), delusional (and yet they are the ones who pitch misinformation, deception, fake news, and frivolous defenses void of facts and evidence), unhinged (and yet they are usually the unhinged ones advocating for civil war, world war, genocide, murder, hate, crime, insurrection, sedition, treason, and/or civil unrest), conspiracy theorists (and yet they are the ones who pitch misinformation, deception, fake news, and frivolous defenses void of facts and evidence), haters (and yet they are usually the unhinged ones advocating for civil war, world war, genocide, murder, hate, crime, insurrection, sedition, treason, and/or civil unrest), people who hate their country (and yet they are usually the unhinged ones advocating for civil war, world war, genocide, murder, hate, crime, insurrection, sedition, treason, and/or civil unrest), people who hate God (and yet they are the ones constantly violating Romans 13 and in a manner that usually violates the 10 Commandments, the 7 Deadly Sins, and/or the altruistic, charitable, forgiving, compassionate, and loving values of Jesus Christ, while themselves claiming to be Jesus Christ), demonic (and yet they are by far they greatest deceivers or anti-Christians), traitors (and yet they are usually the unhinged ones advocating for civil war, world war, genocide, murder, hate, crime, insurrection, sedition, treason, and/or civil unrest), communists (and yet they are the ones who practice a type of privatized communism for billionaire class), fascists (and yet they are the ones who practice fascism), Marxists (and yet they are the ones who practice a type of privatized Marxism for billionaire class), socialists (and yet they are the ones who practice a type of privatized socialism for billionaire class), liberals, Democrats, criminals (and yet usually they are the ones involved in the most crimes for the longest period of time in a manner that the law won't hold them accountable in a largely but not exclusively two-tiered justice system, one for the billionaires, and one for everyone else) -- all required in order to cleave away some part of the non-billionaire class into supporting the failed billionaire experiment, in order for the failed billionaire experiment to survive and continue their violations, abuses, and tremendous harm, with few exceptions.
More simply, the failed billionaire experiment's survival depends on deceiving non-billionaires into supporting, funding, and worshiping them daily, by scaring at least some non-billionaires into defending the failed billionaire experiment (including with their lives and disposable income), by deceiving the non-billionaires into believing that non-billionaire survival, and/or the survival of others, and/or the survival of tangible and/or intangible things depend on the truthfulness of the deceptions of the failed billionaire experiment.
They couple this deception with "engineering" scarcity a number of different ways, including but not limited to, eroding and destroying social safety nets in order to superfund billionaires, who artificially-control and limit "supply" to jack prices or cause inflation, for example fossil fuel supplies, which most product prices are dependent on, which then jacks inflation prices to levels that more or less control most of the people on Earth with the threat of economic slavery through debt, coupled to keeping wages more or less flat for decades, leaving people with less and less disposable income and more and more debt -- and while evading paying taxes themselves, they bribe politicians to divert a good chunk of taxpayers dollars into their coffers via government contracts and grants for problems, and to "solve crises", which they profited off creating the crises in the first place, what Naomi Klein has referred to as "disaster capitalism", profiting off creating a problem, then profiting off solving the problem they created.
The failed billionaire experiment -- which could readily be controlled by legislation or laws that would impose a 99.999% annual wealth tax on all wealth above $5 million -- which is more than enough for any person to have a fantastic life, while preventing them from having more wealth and influence than some countries -- dangles (1) "status" (in the context that they engineer economic slavery, destroy societal safety nets, and use their communications system to specify who their enemies are, usually people trying to hold them accountable), and (2) to a much lesser extent, "self-actualization" Maslow motivators to very few others -- usually reserved for those complicit and/or others (executives and managers) willing to overtly further their ongoing organized crimes and/or run obstruction for the same (lawmakers and/or law enforcers), collectively their millionaire proxies, among which very few are "elevated" to co-billionaire or "master" status over their economic slaves (most people fall into this category) and/or actual slaves (via cancel culture, privatized prisons, prison labor for Fortune 500s, forced labor, child labor, child and human sex trafficking and/or forced labor).
The failed billionaire experiment and their hoarding and kleptocracy crises have become so problematic that Congress has been working for years on passing laws to reign in the same, especially after the corruption of the GOP SCOTUS majority, and the illegal legalization of bribery (a high crime) by SCOTUS via Trump, GOP, and Mitch McConnell-linked Citizen's United criminal RICO ruling.

Constantly seeking praise where praise isn't due -- as malignant narcissists would -- this has resulted in the same billionaires conspiring to overthrow democracy in recent days, posturing that they are all for being taxed, and urge the same to "save democracy", because of course.
All of this allows us to create a hierarchy of needs around the Maslow model for the motivations of the failed billionaire experiment as follows.
This is consistent with variations of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, which adds "transcendence" to the top of the motivation pyramid scheme, which breaks self-actualization into four additional categories, specifically into cognitive, aesthetic, self-actualization, and transcendence, as follows.[2]
Based on our extensive research and reporting on imperial cults, cults of personality, heroons, psychology, and brain research -- adding "transcendence (God-like creator status)" to the top of the pyramid scheme is fitting -- because our research proposes that
(1) sociopaths (who can't stop themselves from violating norms in order to serve their selfish needs), narcissists (who can't stop themselves from not seeking constant worship and praise by others), sadists (can't stop themselves from not deriving pleasure from the suffering of others), Machiavellians (can't stop themselves from not deceiving others to further their self-serving agenda), kleptomaniacs (can't stop themselves from not stealing from others), and/or obsessive compulsive hoarding disorder (can't stop themselves from not obsessively hoarding more assets that they can ever use in a manner that harms themselves and/or others), often manifests as individual and then networked criminal behavior; then
(2) are networked into ongoing RICO conspiracies and criminal syndicates; then
(3) are networked into kleptocracies; then
(4) are networked into oligarchies (where we are now); then
(5) are networked into monarchies (in the context Jeffrey Epstein's and Russia's Donald Trump has tried and is trying to deceive non-billionaires into supporting the billionaire class into overthrowing American democracy to install Trump as a fascist dictator, monarch, emperor, and/or Red Caesar); then
(6) are morphed into imperial cults (where the self-proclaimed leader forces everyone by threat of treason and/or death to worship them as not just a leader, but as a God, the son of God, and/or divine (as Trump and his crime syndicate have already started posturing), also forcing those they oppress to worship their families, and friends as divine in a hereditary manner -- borrowing from the tactics employed by the imperial cults of the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, in particular the Roman Imperial Cult of Gaius Octavius (Augustus) through to the Flavians, Constantine, Charlemagne, the Privilegium maius-forged Habsburgs (thus Jeffrey Epstein's modern day UK and EU usurping and self-proclaimed "royals"), the Privilegium maius-forged Habsburg -- Napoleon -- the Privilegium maius-forged Habsburg Kaiser Wilhelm and Edward VIII and their military asset and imperial cult expansionist Hitler and his Nazis, but not at all limited to the same.
MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF CHIMPANZEES AND OTHER PRIMATES
As specified in our previous reporting, the very worst human behaviors, personality types, and cultures are actually common behaviors among chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas, with whom we share 98% of our DNA with, and where the 2% difference in DNA between humans and these primate cousins, is largely shared between these three other related species.
Similarly, Jeffrey Epstein's crime syndicate and orbit of child sex trafficking clients, financiers, enablers, obstructers, and/or associates have been accused of, linked to, and/or suspected of,
(1) narcissism (seeking alpha, God-like, God, son of God, chosen one, divine, status, or worshipful position among social animals, as "alpha/[Alfa Bank]" primates, like chimps and gorillas do in their troops)[4];
(2) deception/Machiavellianism/fraud (per Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan chimps have been found to deceive anti-social hoarding chimps with a few bananas, which they then hoard, only for the non-hoarding chimps to then beeline for a much larger cache of bananas; separately mimicry and camouflage are found all across the animal kingdom, for example bugs that look like leaves)[3];
(3) stealing/kleptomania/fraud/embezzlement (animals in the wild steal kills, eggs, shelters, homes, and/or mates from one another); and/or
(4) sociopathy (sociopathy in humans is considered alpha behavior in savages), sadism (sadism in humans is considered alpha behavior in savages), rape (chimpanzees are among the animals known to rape), child sex trafficking (animals in the wild, in particular bonobos/pigmy chimps, engage in child sex trafficking, groping, and/or pedophilia), kidnapping, and murder (animals in the wild, including chimpanzees, will kidnap and kill other smaller primates, and eat them)[4];
(5) bribery/Machiavellianism (using the derived meat from their murder of other smaller primates, and just as humans use monetary/gift currency, political assets, bribery, favoritism, nepotism, influence, and/or lobbying -- chimpanzees with share meat from their kills with some but not all members of their troop to influence their social status, and use other food sources to do the same, and use grooming/fondling/molestations to do the same)[3][4]; and/or
(6) beating up and then murdering former tyrants (both chimps and humans do this, the most recent example of the same is the 91 felonies and many lawsuits against Donald Trump, but where RICO obstruction seems to be preventing the law from investigating, prosecuting, and executing Trump for treason and/or espionage with enemies of the United States, including but not limited to Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, and/or other enemies of the United States).[4][5][6]
Per our previous reporting, there is even an overlap between how chimp and human brains develop, up until about 4 years old, where the human brain keeps on developing, but the chimp brain mostly doesn't develop to the same extent as humans, and where those humans unable to control their worst impulses, like but not limited to child rapists and child sex trafficking conspirators like Donald Trump, Leon Black, Jeffrey Epstein, and/or others, have exhibited behavior similar to 4 year old children, which is what some psychologists have determined is the developmental stage of Donald Trump's brain, explaining their tantrums and behavior that is frankly nearly on par with being chimps, bonobos, apes, and/or near total savages, involved with the regular savaging of others, as a troop and ongoing conspiracy of criminal savages would.

Accordingly, all of this allows us to construct a hierarchy of needs for primates below, which sheds some light on the hierarchy or needs or motivators for humans above, and helps explain modern day geopolitics as not much better and/or different than our 98% DNA relatives, specifically chimps, bonobos, and gorillas.
