X is unpracticible because of the way that society is set up right now
okay but X is not being done. in the future we are advocating for X is not the literal only thing we want to change. when i say i want fission in the US on a scale never seen before, that happening at all hinges on fundamentally altering the economics of energy generation! if tons of fission was something our current economy liked, we'd already fucking have it!
so imposing the problems and limitations of right now, on something unimaginable under the conditions of right now, serves only to stifle imagination and lock us into the death cult
jfc thank you. i'm just gonna copy/pasta this every time someone tells me we should drink our own piss instead of looking to the oceans / desalination as a water source because whatever unimaginative hurdle they come up with this time

Well everyone should jar their own urine, just as a best practice
