If the Vietnam war began in 1955, does that mean it lasted 20 years, it ended in 1975? Photo by Sander Sammy on Unsplash No, the Vietnam War began in 1858 when the French first invaded the country. The war with the French then took a short break over 1941–1945 when Japan had invaded Vietnam and when Japan surrendered the territory went back to the French despite Ho Chi Minhs calls for support of Vietnam’s independence. As a result, in 1945 Ho Chi Minh created the Viet Minh which fought the French until the siege of 1954 when the French surrendered in Dien Bien Phu. Americans, had a fear of communism spreading due to the stupid ‘Domino theory’ which had absolutely no basis in fact and might as well been a joke card pulled from a crackerjack box. The Americans decided that with the French pulling out of Vietnam, then with Ho Chi Minh by this time firmly with the Communists, the US had felt it prudent to ensure that Vietnam did not turn to communism. Ultimately the US was scared spit
Theory of Temporal Windows and Cosmic Consciousness: Photo by Greg Rakozy on Unsplash Core Premises: Temporal Windows: We postulate that "ghosts" are not paranormal manifestations but rather rare and transient "temporal windows" — phenomena where the fabric of spacetime becomes permeable due to fluctuations in the quantum field. These windows allow for visual information from the past or potential future to leak into our present, much like light echoes but on a quantum scale. This aligns with the idea of time as linear, where these windows are not altering time's flow but providing brief glimpses along its unbroken continuum. Linear Time and Temporal Coherence: The linearity of time ensures temporal coherence in the universe, preventing causal paradoxes. The temporal windows are constrained by this linearity, only allowing unidirectional observation (e.g., you can witness the past but cannot change or interact with it) to maintain the integrity of the timeli
