I'm pro nuclear energy and think that people who are against are just unknowingly helping the fossil fuel industry.

    Overrated by some Reddit/lib types.

    They advocate it because they feel they'll shock environmentalists.

    There's a reason hardly any nuclear plants have been built the past 40 years. Because there are more profitable ways of making energy.

    It wasn't hippies shut it down, it was profit-calculation.

    And we're running low on fossil fuels. "Oh we'll use uranium instead!" Well that's a non-renewable mineral too, we'll run out of that soon enough.

      Of course there are some drawbacks, but there are more positive sides. And it's stupid to close nuclear plants in the middle of a climate crisis, like Germany is doing.
