Chernobyl

[lars573]

Any amount s gonna be bad for public health in the long run.

But Nuclear power is safe and nothing bad would ever happen.

Before someone inevitability comes along, gnashing their teeth, telling me how the Russians (everything the Soviets did was the Russians fault, remember that) disregarded protocol, telling me how accidents literally never happen (except that one in Japan and that other one in three mile island).

I would simply point out that one of these accidents is catastrophic. You know what happens when a windmill or solar panel explodes? A fire. You know a fire does? It gets extinguished.

Nuclear power is meme propagated but pseudo scientific shutins.

To be fair Western reactors are safer than the Soviet ones (provided you use the safety features right, looking at you TEPCO). As the Soviet ones had this super secret flaw (only the KGB was allowed to know about it) that would make them prone to exploding. If you do the exact thing they did in Chernobyl that night in 1986. Cut the power and use the decay heat to power the turbines.
