You can't possible mean this. She is more responsible than Putin? It's her fault that German politicians ignored all the warnings and choose to depend on Russian fossil fuel? It's her fault that we did not start the massive move away from fossil fuel we needed to do 10-15 years ago, and which would have stripped Putin of his fossil power?
- capableweb 4y agoNot sure you're pretending to miss the point of parents comment or not, but in case you're not: They're obviously not talking about the current war waged by Russia but instead talking about the lack of nuclear reactors in the US.
- Epa095 4y agoThanks, by "the situation we are in now" I thought he meant the global energy crisis and the situation in the EU particularly.
- ComputerGuru 4y agoI can see how OP means just that. Nuclear construction went from skyrocketing to free fall after Ronda’s starring in The China Syndrome led her to become an anti-nuclear hyperevangelist. People listened to her and the Three Mile Island incident shortly thereafter could plausibly be said to have been blown way out of proportion with her amplifying voice. It’s not unreasonable to think that if that movie and Fonda’s anti-nuclear bent never happened, nuclear would have become so profligate that nothing Putin did would have given him a hold over the Western energy sector.
