      What are you talking about? Nuclear has been the target of a massive misinformation campaign from the fossil fuel corporations for decades. Looks like you’ve fallen for the FUD. People have been formatted by literally every form of media to think of nuclear as something dirty, dumping green glowing waste into the environment, and making fish grow extra heads.

      Countries like Germany have been closing perfectly fine NPPs because of FUD funded by their huge fossil fuel lobby. 80% of our energy is from fossils, and they have apparently successfully convinced people that we shouldn’t attack that number with every tool at our disposal. Meanwhile, we’re collectively spending literally trillions of dollars on fossil fuel subsidies every year. Is that what pushing nuclear hard looks like?

          Nuclear subidies aren’t even in the same order of magnitude as fossil fuel subsidies. There’s so much fearmongering in that comment I don’t even know where to start… Chernobyl really was the best thing to happen to the fossil fuel lobby.

          go look at the history of nuclear power research and development

          My friend, I went to university for this shit.
