  • Certain groups (funded by dirty energy companies) have pushed an idea that nuclear isn’t Safe

    Nuclear isn’t safe. You should still not pick mushrooms in parts of germany because it isn’t. It’s an inherently dangerous technology, which you can only try to mitigate.

    Nuclear has been strategically handicapped though because they know it’d destroy their business if it’s able to compete on a level playing field.

    Nuclear can only work because it is heavily subsidized. If it had to compete on a level playing field, not a single plant would ever have been built in history, as they are uninsurable on the free market and no investor would touch them with a stick without huge government guarantees.

    It’s the most expensive form of power generation there is, and in 2024 with renewables as good as they are it is just plain unnecessary to sink resources into this dead end.
