I do not think that the Greens should be murdered.

I do think that the Greens should not throw stones, for they live in glass houses.

Fun fact: in the future, green houses will be the only places where trees may be found.

Unrelated,

Don't sell the conservatives short.

The conservatives destroyed the entirety of the booming solar industry they inherited from the Red/Green government, the majority of the world-leading wind power industry, made building new wind power de facto illegal in many states, and also let NPPs decay along with the entire countries infrastructure. Oh, and stopped grid expansion projects. And destroyed over 100 000 jobs. And amended the constitution to cripple state power going forward. And right now are calling for the murder of "The Greens" over heat pumps.

Still, despite their best efforts, at no point was nuclear power replaced by coal. So nope, didn't happen.

Here, have a German meme:



Newly built wind power. It's the Altmaier Bend. It was so bad and intentional it has a name.


Anyway, I don't think you can show your colours more clearly than agreeing with the conservative calling for the murder of "the Greens".
We should send the greens and conservatives to an island somewhere.

But I do find "coal didn't replace nuclear, akhtually" to be a kind of a game of semantics. Sure, whatever. But had nuclear not been shut down, Germany would have a mostly carbon-free grid by now. Instead of emitting like 10 times more than France per kwh.

Goddamn A380 got like ninehead.

Is that argument that renewables replaced nuclear? (Ignoring the fact that those renewables could have been replacing lignite?)

If so, lol, coal power kills thousands of people in Germany each year, nuclear kills(ed) zero, ignoring the carbon aspect. Not to mention Germany's massive coal imports from Russia.

Yep. It's technically correct in the sense that no coal capacity was added as nuclear was phased out. But, in the way normal people use and understand language, it's total bullshit that I can't believe someone who doesn't actively lobby for the fossil fuel industry could ever say with a straight face.

America doesn't need two lesser evil parties, though, especially when the main one is so ineffective at stopping the march of the West (further into) fascism.

The swedish greens are also anti nuclear. Main arguments being it has some waste and is more expensive than an equal production of reneweables. This might be true, but it does not motivate shutting down the nuclear we already have, which really annoys me. Phase it out as we build others? Sure. Shutting it down first and importing coal energy from germany? Not so green.
Coal also produces radioactive waste, but unlike with nuclear power plants, it's safely stored in your lungs.
