nuclear fission is actually the safest electricity generation we have right now, and modern reactors are pretty safe and are hard to cause to melt down even intentionally, all of this non-sense is mostly just fearmongering
And this is my argument - the reactors were not on their A-game. One slip, one B-level decision, one in decades and decades and the price is paid.
And this is for one of the richest countries on Earth. Who is going to build and run the nuclear reactors in Argentina, Sudan, Belize. Will they be on their A-game in 2045?
Why choose the option with the high cost and the nasty downside when you literally do not have to.
