There are zero antinukes who can add and subtract.

Fossil fuel waste kills 19,000 people per day, according the Lancet article cited in the OP. In the 70 year history of commercial nuclear power, it has not killed as many people as will die in the next 12 hours from air pollution.

Nuclear energy need not be without risk to be vastly superior to all the shit antinukes tacitly and openly support, including dangerous fossil fuels.

Ethically, I find this appalling.

Intellectually, it's even worse.
