Fukushima survived an earthquake and then a tsunami before partly going prompt critical. The meltdown was incredibly controlled compared to Chernobyl.

Calling yourself a nerd while you limit yours and others’ inquisitiveness, passion, and imagination. Pretty pathetic to be honest.

Oh and the best argument is not responding. Which I know, ironic. But let’s see you ignore this and not give some trite, trolling response. Chances of that are pretty low.

You do realize that you can support multiple things? You don’t have to be antinuclear to be pro-solar.

An 82 year long life’s electricity needs provided entirely by nuclear takes an amount of fuel the size of a soda can.

Can you back up claims like that please? I don’t think nuclear energy is causing Earth to copy Venus’ atmosphere (exaggeration on scale of course).

I just would like to point out that China is putting up stable reactors in less than 7 years span. https://thebreakthrough.org/issues/energy/chinas-impressive-rate-of-nuclear-construction

I do think we need every egg in this basket to hatch though, and honestly our main focus should be renewables as you said. But nuclear is just so damn reliable. Besides a reactor can last 75+ years. https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/whats-lifespan-nuclear-reactor-much-longer-you-might-think

Nuclear is also incredibly energy efficient. If you were able to power 100.00% of an 82 year life completely on nuclear, the fuel needed for that is about the size of a soda can. https://cna.ca/2019/06/25/your-lifetime-used-fuel-would-fit-in-a-soda-can-want-proof/

I absolutely love nuclear, I think it’s such a cool energy source. And it brings together so many disciplines of industry and engineering. But I am also a huge proponent of decentralization, and I recognize that nuclear plants are the epitome of central, state and corporate owned, need high security and expertise to run. Whereas, solar and wind once made can be community owned, individually owned, off grid, etc. I think there’s pros to a multi layered approach.

She also LITERALLY propped up Trump, told news outlets to talk him seriously, and encouraged people to not see him as a clown.

You know… Totally not barely controlled opposition party behavior.

Is there a reason why you believe this?

Nuclear is amazing. It is absolutely one of our greatest energy sources we have, and it is green. It has the ability to be at peak operation 24/7 in 99% of weather, at night, on cloudy days, on windless days.

I think solar and wind energy is amazing and needs to be put up everywhere, but until we’re there, nuclear has the ability to transform our energy use.

Fascism is imperialism turned inwards. All this shit we’ve been doing to other countries (and foreign policy is consistently bipartisan) is now coming back to us.

It doesn’t matter if the majority disapprove, Trump doesn’t represent the things done in the US’ brightest moments, he is the culminatiom and the product of the shadows. The nepobaby of a filthy rich, white supremacist mega-landlord in NY, shaped by reality TV that glamorized the most antisocial parts of human behavior, the product of no consequences for rich people despite fucking over THOUSANDS of contactors, employees, and businesses. I could go on about Epstein, Daniels, etc.

Are you surprised this empire doesn’t show off its dark underbelly proudly?

You literally need community as a great ape of a social species. It doesn’t have to be huge but something fundamental is missing when we don’t have community.
