You support nuclear for psychological reasons, not for technological reasons. It gives you a sense of superiority over your fellow human beings. The real reason nuclear is a dead technology is that it's simply not cost competitive with renewables and batteries, but you're here pretending that it's a bunch of scared superstitious ignorant environmentalists that are dragging it down. THOSE common fools just don't know the science. THOSE morons just aren't rational actors like you are. THEY are just to lazy to read about nuclear plant designs.

You're engaged in a comforting form of self-delusion. The actual barriers to nuclear have nothing to do with people just being irrationally afraid of fission. But you ignore this because it gives you a sense of intellectual superiority.

You support nuclear for psychological rather than technological reasons. Fission is just your sports team.
