  • its a post about uranium being at the top, so the message should be about primary energy generation (unlike sugar -nutritional energy, which is also in the pic)

    Cost per gigawatt of installed capacity: Nuclear power: 7–10 billion euros per GW.
    While Wind energy (onshore): 1–2 billion euros per GW. Wind energy (offshore): 2–4 billion euros per GW. Solar energy: 500 million to 1 billion euros per GW.

    This is evident if you just look at the nuclear power companies like france (who is heavily into nuclear): State-owned EDF - 70 billion euro debt. These companies can’t stay afloat because its that unlucrative and therefore need heavy subsidies.

    Then you have environmental cost, which is the funny part, because we cant even evaluate the potential of the damage since we dont understand the effects fully. The scale in the cartoon is literally comedic compared to the half-life of nuclear waste. like 24000 years for plutonium and for uranium over billions












  • Change in reality is not a switch in a day.

    It’s a long process, and so a slow decline in demand. If demand for the unethical product would be flipped with the ethical one like the opposite of what we have now, the practice would effectively be irrelevant and since it’s only alive due subsidies likely also very unprofitable – therefore ‘bought away’ unlike the title claims

    It’s a demand issue. And that’s an issue because lack of education for example (at least in my eyes), education about epistemology, logic, moral and empathy

    We as individuals are NOT responsible for what consequences other demands bring, this angle feels like taking the burden of the collective world onto one self. But that is not the case



  • history doesnt repeat but it often rhymes.

    Not sure America will be imperialist, but we definitely will see a monumental shift in global relations towards the US and how the US will have to invent itself again.

    I doubt they will remain having their arms in every other country like these years. Maybe some more nerdy tech sectors like operating systems, but hopefully not even social media and other services like maps and search engines - thats my hope at least too
