  Tbf I feel like we’re reaching a point now where you do have to look at reality and accept it just isn’t happening. Consider the spiralling budgets and schedules of recent nuclear build outs and compare to what’s been happening in the renewables/batteries space.

  To be as generous as possible, maybe, with absolutely perfect project management, nuclear could compete. Maybe. But we just don’t have that. This is capitalism, and there is no way to make nuclear viable under this system.

    There’s a path dependency to that statement. So many things could have gone differently through history that could have led to a thriving nuclear power sector. There’s a lot of interest in new nuclear so clearly some people think it can work even within the strain of capitalism we have now.

  Calling us propagandised while pro-nukes are the ones saying shit like “solar panels are expensive and require specialised maintenance” (both lies)
