Main Paineframe posted:the overall problem with nuclear in the US is that the nuclear industry here ground to a halt fifty years ago It's this I'm pro-nuclear but the nuclear plants we have currently in the USA are Fukushima-style pieces of poo poo that were built in the early part of the cold war and are in the tail end of their life cycle We should be phasing them out gracefully and building new ones using the exact same plans as the ones they're building like crazy in China and India so spare parts and expertise can be shared and we can benefit from economies of scale But that will never be politically feasible so gently caress it, go hog wild with solar and wind

Feldegast42 posted:If we are already having serious arguments about packing the court then nothing should be considered politically unfeasible. Writing off things that are good "but will never ever happen" is one of the things that led to Trump in the first place. The right wingers don't want it because the fossil fuels companies pay better than the nuclear industry The centrists don't want it because they are coastal NIMBY elitists who consider coming out against it an easy win because it doesn't affect them personally The leftists don't want it because Fukushima erased the last of any ecological bona fides it had and they're convinced we don't need it to go carbon neutral (they may be right about that) I'm open to creative angles, I'm just openly admitting I can't think of any

theCalamity posted:I’m so lost on the whole brunch thing in the Twitter sense and the actual eating sense. Nominally an excuse to continue last night's party by eating greasy food and drinking additional alcohol, brunch is a cultural signifier / touchstone of elitist centrists Several of the pussy hat donut centrists showed up at protests with signs like "if you had voted for Hillary we'd be at brunch right now" Left twitter pointed out how stupid that was Idiot centrist twitter interpreted this as an attack on the idea of eating brunch and got really defensive and angry about the purity bro left's indecorous attacks, and furthermore claimed that brunch is actually not the domain of out of touch liberals but is in fact a way for poor people to eat cheaply and therefore attacks on brunch are racist Left twitter pointed out how stupid that was The cycle continued
