   But luckily Germany saved the world by shutting down their power plants for good

      Tinfoil hat, I know, but I'm convinced that Germany hating nuclear power was a Russian influence operation.

         I always wonder how western population is so brainwashed that you always explain everything using two mutually exclusive ideas:

         1. "Russia is insignificant infinitely small nothing. It's economy is less than economy of Texas!"

         2. "Putin and russians are controlling all the world. They bought every world leader, everyone from Trump to Xi is controlled by them! Anything bad that happens in the world from USA to Africa is directly staged by Russia!"

            You have to remember that people on the left side of the political spectrum fancy themselves as the intellectual elite. They've never been wrong about anything, and if in hindsight it appears that way (like shutting down nuclear plants), well, surely that was because of a highly sophisticated brainwashing operation by Russia.
