>>12977313world war II brought us into the nuclear age. remember when western countries built nuclear reactors? i.e. pollution free plants that could supply massive amounts of energy?
but no, nuclear power is shut down. because it is “unsafe”. unsafe for everyone besides the navy which routinely commissions nuclear powered warships. it’s safe for them but unsafe for regular stuff.
and who do we blame for the downturn of nuclear energy? the environmental extremist liberals. so there was a constellation of interests aligned to thwart nuclear power (oil capitalists plus hippie environmentalists) that ruined the earth forever.
