Nope. The starting point of your and my interaction was you making a snarky meme containing 0 facts that implied anyone who thinks nuclear reactors are scary or have risks are so dumb they can't tell the difference between 2 copies of the same picture.

Then when I called you out on your juvenile behavior and the emotional nature of your argument, you implied I had no reading comprehension and told me to read your other comments.

To use your phrase, "the facts are" that it only takes one bad-enough meltdown to potentially obliterate life on the planet, and that makes nuclear power of any kind a VERY complicated topic. Nuclear power CAN be very useful, but it can also be very dangerous.

Pretending like its a magic bullet is infantile and only harms your cause.

Don't like my ad-hominem attacks against you? You're getting treated the way you treated all of Lemmy when you posted that dumb meme. Now you know how you made everyone else feel first.

My entire point is that idiots like you are comparing modern reactors which can't melt down to catastrophic levels like a Chernobyl event to a f****** RBMK Soviet reactor. A design thought up 80 years ago a design that was out of date when it was constructed. A design that had no fail safes. A design that had no containment vessel. Totally the same thing though. The meme is for you since you cannot tell the difference between the two
