Yeah, I will never get over the Environmental Movement® being against nuclear power because it was a way to be anti-establishment in the 1970s. I consider myself to be an environmentalist but the orthodoxy is really more like the Unabomber's manifesto and is just antimodern. Imagine the timeline where people realized Chernobyl was because it was a shit design (as with lots of Russian tech) and we were already doing better. It would be a lot like... France is today! (But not how Germany is today lmao) And with full acknowledgment that the resource extraction and everything else involved is nonzero to say the least, I see they are already pumping out anti-EV stuff. The Movement® made this movie about how GM killed the electric car 15 or so years ago and it was like an example of how evil people don't care about the climate... and now SWITCHEROO it was really just about cars (and modernity) at the same time.
