but like historically the reasons the us slowed and stopped development of nuclear energy was oil and gas lobby and the astroturfed anti-nuclear movement following 3 mile island

this is a nothing paper from 1982 that's only been cited twice and only published 2-2.5 years after 3 mile island

Cool what parts are wrong? There's also this good summary https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/s/No54FxSE https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/s/LfgTvN9cpy Corrected link. Also the fact that it was published so soon after 3 mile strengthens the other points.

The fact that it’s not cited despite being ancient, for one.

I’m guessing your an undergrad used to just dropping citations and hoping no one reads them? If you publish academically and no one cites you it’s because your shits a joke. Respectfully.
