I think there was a mixup at some point where people mistook the green movement to literally be about maximizing the color greenhttps://twitter.com/ellymelly/status/1512312353471168515 …

Yea it's very funny!

GOPers seem to love nuclear. Wyoming governor is eager to dump a shitload of money into some new plants. I see this as a feature, not a bug

They have the mistaken belief that the only thing that makes nuclear uneconomical is the pesky government regulations

It’s mostly financing. Stopping projects and making new plans kills any path to profitability. Every day you delay construction is another day of wasted labor hours and worse, more interest accruing on the debt.

I mean I tend to think of it as a rhetorical dodge. "I don't think nuclear will get funded so I can always say "support nuclear instead" so it looks like I care".

They fundamentally think wind and solar are "unserious" energy sources, while nuclear isn't. Also there's still a pretty strong belief that the renewables are expensive and require significant public expenditures to make them viable. Even though theyre the cheapest out there atm
-
But nuclear just is, wind and solar require energy storage tech that doesn't yet exist. Also nukes have the added benefit of desalination If we got serious and built multiple nukes at the same time of a set design (AP series most likely) it would lower cost and raise safety

State funding to construction cartels that’s they control or benefit from. Solar is too efficient, too modular for effective anc easy skimming.
-
That must be why they're dumping absurd amounts of money into solar and the huge manufacturing and mining industries it relies on.
