Also- The Gulf of Tonkin incident used as a pretext for the USA going into Vietnam was a fabrication.
To be clear, there had been a scuffle involving US ships on Aug 2nd, 1964 - but it was not a deliberate attack by the North Vietnamese.
The supposed attack on Aug 4th did not happen.
I think the math checks out for this graph.
If a human on a bicycle consumes 0.15 calories per gram per kilometer, then a 100 kg person would be:
100000g x 0.15 calories = 15,000 calories = 15kcal
I’m guessing these numbers are for a racing bike on a flat stretch of smooth road where you don’t need to brake or accelerate.
My dude, how does any of that follow from what I said?
I’m saying we have to work together to enact the changes we want, and that requires being dependent on other people’s specializations. Banding together is literally the biggest strength of our species.
Fierce independence is how we got into this mess, and allows exploitation by organized power-hungry groups.
People need to cooperate in egalitarian collectives to achieve goals and resist exploitation.
