Those should get off one&#x27;s high horse. Yeah, it seems some received biased (higher?) education and don&#x27;t grasp the long term effects. Playing the conspiracy card is just stupid. It might be a cultural issue. Objectively, atomic technology is only viable if you don&#x27;t even think about longterm storage and possible disastrous fallout events. At the moment I live in a first world country that never operated (and never will) atomic power plants (it was voted against it). It produces more power than needed with water, gas, wind and photovoltaic power plants and closed all coal power plants years ago. And yes I know on HN many lobby for atomic research and programs. Some are pretty irrational to the society and environment, and look only for their own wallet.
