It was Ms Merkel who captured the Green Party's long standing stance of zero nuclear power after the Fukushima event - like she did with political positions of other opponents as a general strategy. Today, it's Mr Habeck who'd be responsible for extending lifetimes of nuclear power plants. But of course his investigation into viability of doing just that was bound to come to negative conclusions - everything else would be political suicide for a member of a party that started life out of the "Atomkraft? Nein danke" movement late 70s/early 80s. Decisions elsewhere in the world, even in Japan, don't matter, co2, geopolitics, energy-intensive industries, and emobility at stupid prices be damned - the fundamentalist Green Party and their dangerously half-educated electorate are afraid of "the rays."

The ministry led by "Mr Habeck" wrote five sober pages on all the obstacles of keeping the nuclear power plants running. I don't see you or anyone else here countering any of the arguments they gave. No, it's always the same with these comment sections: They are a circle jerk of people who claim to be on the rational side, while they are only spreading unfunded claims, conspiracy theories and lies.

  So, we don’t keep nuclear - what is the alternative? Coal? Gas? You are aware, that the majority is still non-renewable and as an industrialized economy we do have a base load for consumption that we cannot just lower when there is no sun or wind. I’m all pro renewables in general, but they aren’t a 100% solution for our grid or economy. Moving away from nuclear to gas furthermore supported Russias aggressions against Ukraine. https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2022/09/PE22_374_43312.html https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2022/09/PE22_374_43312.html

  > They are a circle jerk of people who claim to be on the rational side, while they are only spreading unfunded claims, conspiracy theories and lies. Frankly, your discussion style sucks. With your "everybody who's not my opinion is a liar and conspiracy theorist" attitude are you sure you're at the right place here?
