With fusion the single greatest discovery on the path to cheap and clean energy, the govt. couldn't help itself yesterday. It touted first and foremost how this discovery will help us create more nuclear bombs, using meaningless words like "deterrent" & "national security." 1/2

We are literally trained to think insanely. We do NOT need more nukes. "Mutually Assured Destruction" is meaningless if you're dealing with a madman. Already the nuclear industry is claiming the fusion discovery for itself & we're all just supposed to go along. REFUSE. 2/2

One of the many, many reasons (one of the principal among them being hackable security infrastructure) that I will always be against expanding nuclear energy, even if fusion reduces waste. The only safe way forward is with solar, wind, and hydro.

You do realize that fusion bombs already exist, right? Hydrogen bombs use a fission explosion to trigger the fusion explosion.

Remember that's why nuclear ocean shipping vessels don't exist? Why is that?
