This is kinda weird explanation since there is so much technology and especially PROGRESS around renewable tech. Still you see it ridiculed or sometimes even hated around the same threads. So I guess there must be a different explanation.
- RobertRoberts 4y agoI agree, but it _could_ explain why it would happens here, if it's true that the larger HN audience/users like nuclear and don't like renewables. While to many people nuclear is a backwaters idea (except fusion and other non-polluting nuke systems) there are possibly at lot that do like 50s style nuclear power. I just didn't want to really think it was possible with such a well educated/logical group.
- Krasnol 4y agoA well educated group doesn't automatically become immune to Astro-Turfing. People like Michael Shellenberger targeted especially this group of people looking for exactly those results. Today we see his arguments all over the bubble.
