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

         ChatGPT could be wrong, but according to it Germany has had an unusually strong anti-nuclear movement since the 1970s.

         German post-WW2 distrust of anything seen as related to war, plus the fact that Germany has large coal reserves and so less need for nuclear than many other countries, are likely to have contributed to the phenomenon.
