1. Thank you for raising awareness of the level of pro-nuclear propaganda

“…wind and solar crap in Germany was put in place not to displace fossil fuels but rather to kill people…”

Such flawed reasoning reveals your arguments to be nothing more than zealotry and tech-bigotry. Using similar illogical logic we can surely conclude that the heavily subsidized nuclear industry in America exists only to support operation of nuclear submarine and aircraft carrier killing machines. Throw in support for other weapons development, too. Does that seem fair?

They need a semi-private industry to ensure a pipeline of trained nuclear scientists, engineers and technicians who can rely on a stable career field. Too bad about those nasty renewables cutting into the action.

Nice attempt to portray the Chernobyl exclusion zone as a wonderful Wildlife Park, though. Cemeteries make wonderful parks, too. What would we do without them? There’s always a silver lining when it comes to radiation, but Solar & Wind are just killers.

I didn’t count myself as being much of an anti-nuke; mostly just not interested. But your regular Baghdad Bob level copy-pasted posts bashing renewables are raising my awareness, so thank you. The nuclear brothers waging this propaganda campaign have a not too well hidden agenda, and that’s becoming even more obvious as Trump & Co push nuclear while putting the brakes on wind energy. He understands illogical logic. After all, he's a con man.
