Generally, it's popular for people who want to dunk on green energy to choose people who dunk on nuclear as an easy target.

I think we need more nuclear, but it's not realistic given the pricetag and these cogent arguments as why voters are not enamoured either.

Whatever about "more nuclear energy", yeah it has long timelines and sky high price tags.. but decommissioning working nuclear plants decades early and leaning hard on the coal? Sorry, that's fucking asinine populist bullshit. The Russians didn't cause this.
