Where did I mention you mentioning we shouldn't also use wind and solar?

I said nuclear doesn't complement renewables well, unlike a lot of people think who throw the word "baseload" around.

I also didn't say "nuclear scary and bad".

And it is complete nonsense. Of course you need baseload power. Thinking you can supply the entire world with backup power from batteries alone is a ridiculous idea. We don’t have enough storage capacity as it is, not to mention when we want to switch the world to EVs.

people think who throw the word "baseload" around.

I used a word. I’m not throwing anything around, and I don’t have anything to do with what other people do or say.

And you said bad, I assumed scary, because that is the basic emotion many anti-nuclear people have about it, and clouds their judgment. Maybe you watched Chernobyl on HBO, but that is not something that can happen with modern reactors.

You haven’t made a single valid point and started off with personal attacks. That is not a way to have a discussion, with anyone, about anything.
