My primary concern right now wrt nuclear energy (about which I know very little) is that it is being pushed by a collection of people with zero respect for safety-the tech frat boys, greedy industrialists..
Given the potential for serious accidents , I would feel better if the pro-nuclear crowd wasn’t also in significant enough part the radically libertarian, anti-accountability (at least for for-profit, industrial corporations/the very wealthy) crowd pushing for total deregulation, the decimation of safety standards etc.
