Yes people keep repeating this nonsense. Nuclear despite years of subsidies much higher than renewables [1,2] it is nowhere close to economical to build nuclear. And we are not even talking about the unsolved problems of proliferation, long term (~50000 years) storage and risk (another subsidy btw because nobody will insure a nuclear plant). Base load is actually not a problem, you need a large enough grid and sufficient overprovisioning. In fact building a system with only slow base load reactors is much more difficult than based on intermittent, dynamic ones.
