I often ask "I'm not an antinuke" antinukes a very simple question.

It's this:

If so called "nuclear waste" is so "dangerous," please provide evidence that in the seventy year history of its accumulation am example of where its storage has killed as many people as will die from dangerous fossil fuel waste in the next two hours?

They're a very stupid and puerile bunch. They whine and make excuses but they don't answer the question.

The fact is that their ignorance and paranoia defines, exactly, for me at least, exactly how uneducated, unread, and dangerous as they are, the precise and exact equivalents of antivaxxers, although it must be said that antivaxxers certainly didn't kill as many people as antinukes have. After all, 18,000 people die each day from air pollution while antinukes cower in fear of used nuclear fuel. Covid never killed 18,000 people in a single day, even on its worst day.

One of the very amusing things about antinukes is that they have no sense of shame. They are completely uninhibited in displaying their mentality, their contempt for science, and worse, their contempt for humanity.

And, of course, they lack wit, not that they have enough wit to recognize as much.

Have a wonderful work week.
