- foxyv 3y agoIt IS scare journalism to remind people of this. We use fear, uncertainty, and doubt to sell people magazines and Solar panels. It's part of why we spend $800 billion on military spending in the US. It's part of why these weapons exist in the first place. No thank you!

It is terrible but it is a white elephant: it cannot be given away but it also is undesirable to keep but still necessary.
