No doubts about that. Just don’t let the DNC off the hook completely by blaming only the voters.

So did the DNC though, supporting Israel was more important to them than winning “the most important election of our time”.
So it’s kind of like the school shooting epidemic in a way
Basically the current US system if tech was better
Do they usually seek to have jurisdiction outside the embassy, like the Chinese do?
You just changed my life with the rollup thing. It must be so much more practical to get stuff out of a drawer if I don’t have to dig into a pile of folded clothes!
Yale is broke? Where does all that student loan money go then? Honest question
Outsourcing companies are already doing that to drown out real applicants and convince companies no qualified people are on the market.
Yeah, the MiG-29 has been around, to say the least.
Ohh, I get it. The thing with Ukrainian power generation being a military strategic thing though is not that homes can be kept warm - that is great - but that military production is powered. I don’t think you can power a munitions factory from scores of smaller reactors, since that would need insane infrastructure that is just not there, and would still be an easy target.
Also, in Ukraine, it would mean a legitimate military target in every backyard. The Russians would be back to carpet bombings already. I’m not saying it would not help, but I think it’s a dubious advantage in wartime - which by the way, the US won’t be - and even more problematic at peacetime as again, most consumption is industrial.
The thing I don’t see is how do you route power from Bob’s small reactor to Bezos’ AI farm so that Wall Street can keep pretending the American economy exists?
Yeah, look in the Kremlin.
Europe is basically a long history of wave after wave of immigration.
So is the US, and it’s even more recent. Don’t seek logic in it.
And the “rest of the world is devastated from the war, so there is no competition anywhere”.
The question is which one is better: Fossil nuclear or renewables.
Both, whatever we can build faster, whatever makes it easier to reduce coal and oil. It shouldn’t be an either-or decision. Also, nuclear is not a fossil fuel, you can debate if it is renewable or not, but nuclear fuel is not made from compressed organic matter.
What can happen? The plant is pretty much working and is the only reliable point of Ukrainian power generation since it can’t be targeted. Also, when is the US going to get into a land war on its own soil, and how will smaller nuclear reactors help?
True or false: a nuclear reactor failing, for any number of reasons, can do a lot more damage than a coal plant or any of the processes to gather coal can.
By that same logic, we should dismantle all our cities, since a natural catastrophe can wipe out so much more people if they are clustered up. Or drive instead of flying, because one airplane crashing is worse than one car crashing.
Nuclear reactors failing make for better headlines. You would literally have to build a reactor design that was not safe even back then - they built it to prioritize weapons grade material refinement - and would have to mismanage it systematically for decades in order to get at 5-10% of the death toll coal generation will do 100% in that timeframe.
The big picture is, if every reactor was Chernobyl, was built like Chernobyl, was operated like Chernobyl and would fail like Chernobyl, that would still cause less deaths than the equivalent coal generation. That’s the big picture. Fixating on one accident that can provably never happen again is the minutia.
Chernobyl killed around 4000 people locally and contributed to 16000 deaths on the continent. Normal coal operation has killed half a million people over the last 20 years.
All I’m saying is that accidents are possible, sure, but the laxity of regulations regarding coal has killed way more people than that towards nuclear. And it’s not about “one person not having their morning coffee”, Chernobyl was dangerous by design, modern reactors simply can’t fail that way.
My friend, it’s already happening, a lot of it has already happened.
The Gleichschaltung is already in motion, they are throwing out the mainstream press in favour of OANN and Breitbart from the Pentagon for example. They are building a “new media”, pushing thousands of random influencers and podcasters to drown out established news outlets. Trump is extorting CBS for billions just because he can.
Institutions are being actively dismantled, some could resist, but the OPM is in serious peril. They are basically planning to replace everyone and building a new state apparatus.
This is not bluster and promises, this is actually happening, a lot of it has already happened and can’t easily be undone, and almost none of it was legal.
Trump is already sending threats all over the world, and a lot of countries are tring to appease him. For now, he’s seeing what he can get away with. We’ll see what he’ll do once he sees that Canada won’t do an Anschluss.
Israel as in Netanyahu sure. Will the fundamentalist wing accept non-Jews settling in Gaza? How will this occupation even look like?
You overestimate my organization skills, I am able to make a mess out of 4 T-shirts and two sets of pants.
