Probably not so much the other way, most Ukrainians are fluent in Russian, I doubt many Russians are fluent in Ukranian

Glad to see progress being made on this front. Local justice movements like this are a bulwark against state and national level fascist gerrymandering and election stealing efforts as well.

The fact is that Israel has been creating the conditions for this violence for decades. Hamas wouldn’t even exist if Palestinians weren’t the victims of an apartheid state and ethnic cleansing

OP, how does it feel being a fuckin loser with no prospects in life

This is so fuckin sad lol

“Look at our technological prowess! We can copy an Iranian design with a lot of help!”

Budgets are a real thing. If you tie up $28.5 billion constructing say, the Vogtle #3 and #4 reactors, you are taking away significant amounts of money that could have already produced working wind and solar installations that would produce far more power. Stating that reality doesn’t make me “evil,” get a grip.

Additionally, with upgrades in high voltage transmission lines and grid-level storage systems the need for nuclear or fossil fuel baseload in the future is going to be far less than you expect

starting to add more nuclear capactiy so in 10 years we can use it, isn’t a bad thing.

Unfortunately this is only true if the money tied up building a reactor for 10 years doesn’t take away from the budget for wind and solar projects. If it isn’t then you’re literally stealing clean energy from the present to hopefully get roughly 1/4 that rate of power production in a decade

Chernobyl was a 50 year old design, and happened 40 years ago, involved multiple human errors … nah can’t consider things have changed since then.

Things have indeed changed, now construction regulations are far tighter. This is good because the risk of a Chernobyl event is far lower, but at the price of extreme cost overruns and project delays

Ignoring the fact that coal and natural gas still hurt and kill people daily

So is it better to start a nuclear project and hope it can start reducing coal & NG emissions 10 years from now? Or is it better to add solar and wind capacity constantly and at a fraction of the price per MWh?

There was a time when nuclear was the right choice, but now it is just not cost effective nor can it be brought online fast enough to make a dent in our problems

Somehow Dams that would be devistating to destroy are given a pass, but hey Nuclear power, so scary.

I think you’re forgetting that once the waters from a dam break dry up you can rebuild…a nuclear accident has the potential to poison the land for generations
