I've brought this up before but China is a leading manufacturer of lithium-ion batteries. It is a huge industry for them and Western countries like that China bears the environmental and ecological brunt for it.
That's true but from their perspective why should they rock the boat now? For generations they have had no true political responsibility, receive money from the British government and don't have to pay certain taxes. Not saying it's right for them to do nothing but even if they tried to do something hypothetically it's a gamble that could backfire horribly and result in the destruction of the monarchy as a whole.
A lot of people don’t use public transportation because of crime and hobos. Not sure why they ignore this fact.
retard we're talking about nuclear power not nuclear weapons that's why it was referred to as useless.
Add India and you may be onto something.
This guy doesn't have thick-enough skin for someone who wants to convince people to vote for certain candidates but it is funny to watch him whine.
Public transportation often enables criminals to migrate (or at least travel) to wealthier and cleaner areas to shit them up, victimize them, and ruin them.
Nuclear Reactors are inevitably connected to the MIC, that's why they were fucking created in the first place. That is why Thorium is gay. Has no weaponization purposes. Why would the US invest in that when it cant use it for weapons?
I occasionally find myself watching BBC dramas, and invariably they are always set in the past, either just after the wars, before or in the intermediate period. They love using this old, beautiful British Trust mansions for the set pieces and it occurred to me that its just so sad.
Britain died when we dumped their tea in the Boston harbor. And good riddance. Its what they fucking deserve. The best of them fled to the new world or died in wars. Their current predicament is the fate they chose in 1776. Ironic.
risk the destruction of the monarchy
None of the public transit advocates advocate for it in a vacuum, it all has to be part of the greater progressive agenda for which there is no proper response to the homeless and crime problem other than endless gibs. They want to have their cake and eat it too and would rather not face the reality that their urban utopias would require Singapore-tier authoritarianism.
FUCK YEAH, YOU'VE SEALED IT NO TAX ON OVERTIME FINALLY LETS FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You do realize that to utilize thorium you need plutonium right? This would then incentivize plutonium breeding and harvesting and if need be the government could seize the massive amounts of plutonium the thorium reactors would have to keep whenever and be able to build more nuclear weapons.

It was tolerated because it was never abused. It was, like many things, a tool used reasonably that no longer is. The fact is of course now actors within the system not only don't care about the system, but are actively trying to break it. They will abuse any tool they can till it gets taken away, and if given the chance will enact more abuse that would require this tool to remove. In other words "this is why we can't have nice things."
I'd be shocked if JD Vance doesn't waltz right into the white house in 28, and I'd be shocked further (if he keeps up Trump's agenda) he doesn't win reelection in 32. What demographic shifts happen between now and then via deportations could spell an end to the current green policy DNC.
We'll have more plutonium than we need for bombs if we build as many reactors as required to power even a quarter of the country. Gotta find a use for all that excess. Could use it for nuclear propulsion for space exploration, but we live in clown world.
Yes. But we can just dig up more uranium. How is thorium cheaper than digging up uranium, slightly enriching it, then dealing with the waste either by turning it into weapons or storage?
Leftist boosters know their audience.
That's not how civilian nuclear reactors work. Civilian nuclear reactors generate heat to boil water by letting refined uranium decay. The waste product at the end is barely useful in dirty bombs let alone for an actual nuclear bomb. Military Grade reactors use highly enriched uranium from the jump. This allows them to bleed off trace elements (like Plutonium). Its a far more complex procedure and one the Iranians didnt opt for.
