This is currently the same in Europe and especially in Germany.
Social media has been pushing a pro-nuclear power stance since Russia invaded Ukraine (you’ll notice this on /r/europe), with people using the “ecological” no-carbon argument, and are also simultaneously pushing an anti-wind and solar policy.
The neonazi AfD has not held back about its anti-renewables stance, and pro-Russian perspective, but even the probable new German Chancellor came out recently saying that he hate wind turbines because they are “ugly”.
It’s clear that nuclear is being peddled as an option because it’s clear to fossil fuel peddlers that nuclear is a great Trojan horse. It claims to be carbon free but it’s a 25-30 year program until one is operational and when you take everything into account, they actually cost more to run. The insurance alone is devastatingly expensive.
