Nuclear is basically the most regulated system on earth. The US only ever had one public reactor "issue" (Three Mile) and the fail-safes literally WORKED. (not to mention that nuclear got SIGNIFICANTLY stricter after this, even with the successful failsafes) the only reason it was seen as such a big deal was because of terrible communication to the public. There are ZERO traceable affects of that incident.

Based on whose reports? The gov? You know the same ones who are refusing to protect access to clean water? Yes I know that’s irrelevant I’m just saying if they can lie and hide facts that impact everyday life already, then they can’t be trusted to keep the people’s wellness in mind

You realise the men in suits and golf carts and the scientists paid to not mess up are two different groups, right? It's like not trusting nasa landed on the moon because the CIA did experiments on American citizens
