    Weird how it is never the right time to build nuke

    Fifty years ago: no
    Thirty years ago: no
    Today: no

    But of course later suddenly it is “oh if only we built it back then”
    Or “oh it’s too late now, it takes sooooooo much”

    Meanwhile curiously fossil fuel usage keep growing.
    Europe was (and is) basically enslaved to Russia gas due to the “no nuclear” green crowd.

    Of course who does not agree with you suddenly is called “idiot”.

      Well, no. Somebody else was calling me an idiot for following the evidence that says nuclear is too expensive and renewables are a better option. I simply pointed out that their claim works far better pointed at them than it does at me.

      And look, I’m not old enough to have been politically engaged 50 or 30 years ago. Practically, it doesn’t matter what we should or should not have done 30 years ago. We need to evaluate the conditions of today and decide what’s the best option.

      And the evidence is clear: that’s renewables.
