      Engineers: nothing is safer, more reliable, and more energy dense than nuclear. We need it for the future.

      Libs: but have you considered ignoring science and continuing to use petroleum based products while also propping up neocolonialism for lithium and other rare earth metals?

          I'd rather take the yearly rad worker max dose for 50 years than catch covid. Once tbh. And you are right the thing that makes nuclear dangerous is they are essentially one off designs from the 50s built in the 70s and being maintained 50 years later (at the end of their expected lifespans.... Next gen reactors literally could never do a chernobyl or 3 mile island or fukushima
