4. If one has even a modicum of scientific or engineering knowledge...

...one can appreciate the ignorance of people who've been issuing stupid slogans for decades.

If one has no such knowledge, one can produce stupid slogans.

I note that there are very few of the antinukes producing this tiresome tripe who give a rat's ass that Germany boils water using coal.

Nor do they give a rat's ass about the trillions squandered on solar and wind junk driven by mining, the destruction of wilderness and back up by coal and gas.

What antinukes' trisome sloganeering and ignorance has done has left hundreds of millions of air pollution deaths and a planet in flames from climate change.

My experience of these dangerous fools is that they are classic Dunning Kruger types, almost Trumpian in scale, so ignorant as to be unable to grasp even on the surface the scale of that ignorance.

Happily, the educated world is sweeping this ignorance aside.

Even now, this late, this dire, antinukes have no sense of decency.

None.

Have a nice weekend
