I legitimately hate that the top sentiment in this thread seems to be nuclear bad. What bullshit propaganda.

    Wow. Your comment was at the top in my sort and I thought "what kind of smooth brained moron thinks nuclear is bad?" The comment directly below says something like "nuclear bad, we don't need it" what an incredibly stupid take. Nuclear is far safer and less radioactive than many of the energy sources we're using. Full renewables would be awesome but let's not just dismiss nuclear, it's pretty awesome.

    It is great in times of peace, there are issues when it gets bombed.

    How many times in human history has that occurred (aside from the hole in Chernobyl's sarcophagus, which is not an active plant), please give examples.

    How many times have nuclear countries been at war?

    It's something that should be planned for when you build them. Saying war is impossible because it hasn't come home isn't a good excuse.

    Once again, I am asking for you to provide examples of the WAR CRIME that you are imagining.

    Ok, cool. You listed Chernobyl: Is not an active nuclear plant, and as the whole point of the overarching post is that it was caused by gross incompetents, not war. And secondly/third you listed oil refineries being hit, I say good to that, we need to leave fossil fuels behind.

    By mid-2024 the country only had a third of pre-war electricity generating capacity, and some gas distribution and district heating had been hit.

    Is this where you got Chernobyl from?

    So you understand how replacing oil and gas with nuclear would change the target to nuclear. Correct?
