Well, wet dirt is permeable and my understanding was they needed to stop the radioactive material leeching into the water table. Which would have caused radiation poisoning and cancer rates to soar for much of Europe.
It also was not stupid from start to finish. If it were, it would still be uncovered and half of Europe would need to be evacuated.
IMO the biggest problems were to do with the reactor design being secret. That and the attempted coverup afterwards. But I wouldn’t consider the cleanup to have been incompetent. The Chernobyl liquidators have been widely credited with limiting the effects of the disaster.

That’s definitely not accurate. For example, stopping the water table from being as polluted under the conditions meant having to use people.
They could also have just not bothered.
I’m not saying that their response didn’t kill a lot of people.
It did.
I’m saying it could have been much worse sr

5000 would have been a massive undercount too

Watched the video. Its clearly calligraphic script. He investigated everything but the most obvious thing.
Could have been a paragraph.

Might not have the hair for too long. Though you might. Depends on the tolerance for testosterone. Just know that high testosterone and baldness are highly correlated

Mostly you’d expect them to be bald

So trump is just the last in line whose failure was worst.
That still makes it his fault

They wouldn’t let a black person with a gun anywhere bear that white house

We have known the mirror test is flawed for a long long time.
African children consistently failed it until older (than white children) because they didn’t know what a mirror was or what was appropriate to do in the presence of one.
