That is one technology that I don't care if China steals secrets to make it happen faster.

No need!

The data gathered by EAST will support the development of other reactors, both in China and internationally. China is part of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) program, which involves dozens of countries, including the U.S., U.K. Japan, South Korea and Russia.

If we were a smarter society, we’d end our stupid cold war with them and cooperate.

More like if they were willing to embrace capitalistic western values and bend over for America whenever we're feeling frisky

More humane like Nazi-America, or more humane like Warcrimes-Russia? Description unclear, please clarify.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 18 hours ago

More humane like the best of us wish to be and the majority of us never will be

More humane as in respecting human rights I suppose

Yeah more humane like Israel… America has been installing dictators all around the world for decades what are you talking about? You think America cares about humanity? You cant even birth a child without a $10,000+ bill.

America cares about moneyyyyy and nothing more

We topple democratically-elected leaders because it suits our economic plans. People downvoting the above comment don't know shit about history. And that's because our schools don't accurately teach it.

the only people against it would be those in the pocket of other forms of energy monetary wise.
