Ah yes, these "experts" who visit China only to come back and report on something obvious that's been publicly known already are just spreading CCP propaganda!

I try to remind myself that there’s a good chance people like this are teenagers.
Only teenagers can believe thousands of FBRs can be safely built because the website said so. The kind of reactors whose coolant explodes on contact with air. American data centers are just going through to burn gas with their own apocalyptic gensets.
The intellect and maturity of the average teenage white USian isn't very far below the ones of the average white USian dad
You see them on youtube comment sections of pro-nuclear podcasts trying to talk like intellectual gents from the 1800s. I have been shitty about nuclear here but it's more of a gag reflex to them and redditors who treat it all like magic.
The bit in the Simpsons where Bart and Hoemr were just about equal is actually true.
