For real numbers its 1.2-1.6 g protein per kg bodyweight or 0.5-0.7g per pound of body weight. When i check years back it was something like beyond 0.82g / lbs showed either no additional benefit or diminishing returns. For a 150lbs person that would be 75-105g protein, something like 20% of your daily calories in fat, and then adjust your carbs based on if you want to gain or lose weight










The average person just doesnt care about things as long as they are placated and their most base needs are met. Many people actively avoid or are angered by having to think for themselves (see the “its not that deep” crowd).
You end up with
In the US, republicans are 2. and Democrats try to appeal to 2 since theyre paid by those same corporate interests when their voting base is actually 1. This leads to people in 1 who would otherwise have voted for them feeling like theyre unheard since the democratic rhetoric either appeals to 2 or denies the realities and actual popular ideas
Add on top of that capitalistic pressures on the average working person and people tend to become more selfish and individualistic, which causes ppl in 1. to just not vote if the democrats dont give them what they want, 2. to always vote republican because they fall for the propaganda, and 3. to either vote Democrat anyways as harm reduction or not vote because the Dems dont listen.
Really, it is the apathy of the more “left” party to what people actually want that pushes people towards anyone who will listen, which tends to be the more “right” party that will try to activate any fear they can and promise people the moon just to get a vote, even if they never have an intention on delivering.
