...unavoidable truth that conflicts with dogma with anything other than specious innuendo.

I could easily accuse members of the antinuke cults of being paid by the fossil fuel industry whose interests they've served so well all these decades, but they've generally neither bright enough, educated enough, or ethical enough to understand the consequences of their absymal ignorance.

I only need to note that the war in Ukraine was financed by the sale of fossil fuel sales generated by German antinukes.

Putin didn't even have to give the antinuke community a commission. They did it for free wallowing in their intellectual and moral vacuousness.

By the way, when the war is over, and Ukraine survives the consequences of the Euros German antinukes sent Putin, that country, the site of Chernobyl, plans to build more nuclear reactors. They know what Putin does with the money from the successful marketing carried out by the ignorant antinuke community. Unlike flakes like Helen Caldicott they oppose fossil fuels.

I also note that antinukes, a set of bourgeois malcontent consumers generally, lack the moral depth to understand that people do things for reasons other than money.

I'm an old man at the end of my life, and money will soon enough have no meaning for me, and still I fight this fight because, unlike antinukes who couldn't care less about the roughly 20 thousand people who will die today from air pollution, I have a sense of decency. The future of humanity and the planet matters to me.

I would recommend that my bourgeois antinuke acquaintances try a sense of decency on for size, but that like getting them to educate themselves enough to understand numbers, is a lost cause.

Have a wonderful weekend.
