I’m not sure if we’re allowed to ask questions on this sub. It seems mostly news articles but I figured I’d give it a go.
So Bruce Power in Ontario is planning to build the world’s biggest nuclear plant in the world (by expanding on an existing plant).

BC is more well known for hydroelectric, but that particular source hasn’t really been greatly expanded on in decades and site-C is pretty controversial.
This got be thinking:
How do we in BC feel about nuclear power? Would you support one near where you live? Why or why not, and what other power options would you prefer?
3-5 megatons? You don’t get blasts like that from a ruptured steam vessel. That takes a nuclear explosion. You are aware that not only was Chernobyl not a nuclear explosion, there is nothing in any nuclear power plant anywhere even capable of creating a nuclear explosion of any magnitude, right?
You are welcome to provide a source that backs up your claim, like I did!

A source that discusses the possible repercussions of a Chernobyl explosion…
Come on.
Even a casual google will confirm what could have happened.
Edit: heck, didn’t realize you were trolling. Or at least, I hope anyone who writes nonsense like “There is no systemic oppression of women and there never has been.” Is trolling. Either way, you do you, I’d rather spend time with folks who are worth my time.
Cheers!
Oh, have you already resorted to an internet background check?
A nuclear power plant has nothing capable of creating a nuclear explosion. Nuclear fuel is not capable of going super-critical. You cannot put it into any configuration in which this is the case. No nuclear power plant has ever had a super-criticality event and no nuclear power plant has ever been capable of even producing one.

Yes.
My time is valuable and I’m happy to share it with the folks who make Lemmy better.
Cheers.
