The need for independence and free thinking is still met, though. The enclaves are setup specifically for this purpose.

Das ist leider wie bei den Republikanern in Amerika: Die Wähler interessieren sich in erster Linie nicht, ob es ihnen tatsächlich besser geht. Es geht um das Gefühl der vermeintlichen Überlegenheit und darum dafür zu sorgen, dass es den Anderen noch schlechter geht.

Same here, yes the government is totalitarian but its foremost goal is to provide people with everything they need for a blissful life.

On a moral level the crippling of a fetus to create a lower class human is horrifying. And I don't think a society like this could ever exist because someone somewhere is going to mess it up for personal gain. But as a thought experiment? Yeah, definitely not a dystopia.

Nicht schon wieder ...

Here we go again ...

Every German nuclear power plant has been run with minimal maintenance for the remainder of their operational live because their shutdown had been decided years ago. It would have been more efficient to rebuild them from the ground up. It would have been if any of the major energy companies in Germany had been interested in operating new nuclear power plants at all.

Then there is the problem with nuclear waste. Yes, of course now someone will bring up the argument "It's so little waste" but even if it is, it's too much if there is no long term storage solution at all. Meanwhile, our existing waste containers are rusting away.

"But cheap electricity is worth it" I hear you say. Nuclear is not cheap. Every western nuclear power plant is propped up by government subsidies and guarantied electricity prices, which makes it a net negative for the taxpayer.

"But China is doing it on time and budget" is next in line. Sure, let's take the totalitarian state with total control over its industry as role model. But even China is adding magnitudes more renewables than nuclear capacity. Why wait decades for one nuclear power plants worth of energy when over the same time period we can add multiple nuclear plants worth of solar and wind farms together with the battery capacity to balance energy usage?

Next we have the issue of sourcing the fuel. Guess where i.e. France is getting most their fuel from? Yeah, it's Russia. "We could get our uranium from Australia instead" is the follow-up argument. Theoretically yes, but in reality France is even expanding their ties with Russia.

I really don't understand why people refuse to acknowledge that civilian nuclear power usage is a thing of the past.

4 ist ausreichend. Ausreichend ist bestanden. Bestanden ist gut. Gut ist eine 2 und 2 ist fast eine 1. 🤓

Häh? Was macht die Beate?
