12. Only the ignorant who support

unfettered reckless deployment of nuclear power and the resulting waste problem to be shoved off on the coming generations, as is a habitual stand by pro-nuke people, think that somehow solar and wind are in cahoots with the fossil fuel industry. The fossil fuel industry, as we see currently, is absolutely giddy over the ending of the US push for solar, wind and electric vehicles. But I have no doubt that level of ignorance might come from a certain amount of NIMBY ism because not one proponent has come forward to advocate for living next to the uranium mines or having the nuclear waste stored in their neighborhood. For the record the next time you look down your nose at me and what my education is or what my work experience and knowledge is you need to remember that you don't so stick that in your ear pal.
