Since Chernobyl was trending recently:
Did you know that workers at Chernobyl went back to work the same week and continued working there every day for about another decade before the plant finally closed?
Did you know that you get more radiation exposure on a flight across the Pacific or Atlantic than you do at ground-zero Fukushima and ground zero Chernobyl?
Did you know that no one died at Three Mile Island and of the hundreds of thousands of people doing the Chernobyl cleanup (and that received heavy radiation doses) less than 50 people actually died?
Did you know that ALL of the spent fuel in the U.S. fits in an area the size of a football field, and of that, the only bit of it that remains radioactive after a few decades, fits in ONE endzone?
Did you know Americans turned against nuclear energy mostly because of ONE movie that falsely confused Nuclear Energy with Nuclear Weapons?
Did you know that nuclear energy is actually a reusable and quasi-renewable form of energy?
I didn't.
Did you know the "messy" nuclear tech was proliferated and shared with the rest of the world because of a POLITICAL decision to race to market and beat the Russias to selling it abroad? (even though a cleaner reusable nuclear tech was available)
Anyway, the pattern once again holds up: they've been lying/misrepresenting for a long time.
They didnt even know Chernobyl was in Ukraine in recent propaganda pieces. These people are at best low-IQ, at worst: malevolent.
