they don't like the results
they only want to believe what's comfy for them
Once you give up the principle that evidence matters, anything goes.

To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, is like administering medicine to the dead.
―T.Paine

Science isn't to be believed, it's to be replicated

It's a powerful, efficient, clean, and safe energy source far beyond the other options and guaranteed to skyrocket civilization into the stars

And yet, the world is completely held spellbound by misinformation and fearmongering funded by oil tycoons.

We are in a real dark age where superstition and fear prevails above truth and reason.

Hug me, /sci/

>>12313743
I don't believe in people. "Science" is just the latest bullcrap religion with people calling each other philistines when they don't see the "truth" in the angry mob.

It's safe until it is not. We've seen this many times already. It doesn't matter how many failsafes you put into the system, you can't get past murphy's law. And when it does go wrong, it goes catastrophically, horribly wrong

1 million
1 million people die every year due to coal.

Fukushima was the first real incident in 70 years. And it killed a single old man

this. demonstrate facts, don't ask others to blindly believe them.

>>12313827
how do the people die relating to coal? mining accidents?

>>12313827
It killed one man immediately. But the effects linger. Look at what happened to Japan after WW2. Two bombs, now they're all retarded two generations after. Two generations from now they'll be even weirder because of Fukushima

20% enrichment vs 90% enrichment
Everything has its lethal dose

Also, Fukushima's radiation is faaaaaar less than CT scans
Like 1/300 per hour

Misinformed people like you are the exact people that are keeping us grounded on this hellhole

>>12313836
Expel the smoke out and falls down as acid rain

Coal sites have a radioactivity of 19uSv per year. Which is far higher than radiation at Nuclear Sites. The radiation at Fukushima ground zero is 8uSv/h

>>12313847
Now imagine 50+ more years from now because of Fukushima

Says the guy who determines my IQ by reading my post. What a fucking idiot. Let me guess, you learned to do that by watching the other monkeys do it? Thanks for demonstrating my point.

>>12313861
Now imagine a world where Electricity is too cheap to measure
Imagine a world where asteroids are being mined and we have no need to ruin nature
Imagine a super computer on every household because rare metals have become dirt cheap

People like you are the enemy of civilization

>>12313868
Building any of that would require not having radiation poisoning in your brain. Japan kind of stopped making new technological inventions once the old sane ones that remained died out.

>>12313880
Except that's false. Nuclear Fusion is currently achievable in our lifespan
And also, even reactors from the 50s have better efficiency than any meme energy source you can think off.

Kindly go back to /pol/ or whatever shithole you live it. It's so clear you have no idea about nuclear physics nor do you want to learn about it

>>12313895
Relax, senpai. I was just pretending to be retarded. I like science! Don't send me to /pol/ please

science is literally 99.9999% stuff not a single person cares about including people working on it. boo hoo a solution to an obscure physics problem that the explanation for is longer than the solution, wow another boring numbers theory paper, yawn another chemical or enzyme discovered.

>>12313743
Because it's more fun to believe in IFLS! instead.

>>12313799
>oil tycoons
That's a weird way to spell open borders and social welfare programs.

>>12313847
So it's like getting a CT scan every 300 hours?

If you want science to progress, you must kill the scientism religion that is destroying both the credibility of science and the methods by which it is practiced.
