    France has soldiers in Niger to protect their uranium mines, and they invaded Mali because the rebels were a threat to that.

    I dont know if nuclear is ultimately better than the rest, but it's not clear cut like people make it out to be. It uses resources you have to dig out of the ground, it has high startup costs, it produces waste, and you have to be absolutely diligent about maintenance throughout the entirety of its lifespan.

    Again maybe it edges out the alternatives, but only by a bit. I still think wind, solar, and hydroelectric should be the main focus of investment

      no, nuclear is significantly better. uranium isnt the best fuel for anti-imperialism obviously, its used to create bombs and is rarer. i dont have my sources on me rn but if i remember to get back to you i will lmao
