But a couple of hundred thousand displaced people don't count, of course. Also, there are no reliable statistics on fatalities because these are being systematically suppressed. I wonder why that is?
"There is no data to support my ideas, that's definitely because everyone in the world is hiding and suppressing them "
Well, where are the data? Isn't that a question that would be very much in the public interest to know about?
Well you're the one claiming that this data has been suppressed.
We do have the data showing spikes in cancer after Chernobyl and data showing on-job deaths for pretty much every type of power plant. And that data shows that nuclear is the second safest energy per MWh generated, by far. With, apparently, solar being the first and wind at the third position. It's not suppressed, it's there and it's pretty conclusive.

That's a case specific to Chernobyl and Soviet Russia in general. We know they falsified a lot of data in many aspects, but that's not "systemically suppressed" and definitely not something to generalise to every single nuclear power plant currently running in the world.
