Kyle Hill, known pro-nuclear science communicator, was banned from the Reddit community r/NuclearPower for his pro-nuclear stance.

Turns out the community has been taken over by anti-nuclear mod(s).

Posting about this I’ve been banned too 😂

If you remain on Reddit, r/Nuclear is still a valid community. Otherwise we exist of course!

You’re not asking people to trust science, you’re asking people to trust in the institutions that were certain people around Chernobyl and Fukushima were totally safe and trust us bro

...

So have you even heard of a power coefficient before?

Everyone knew Chernobyl was inherently unsafe, because a positive power coefficient is just an insane design which is why only the Soviets were doing it.

And Fukushima was concurrent earthquakes and a tsunami... Like, you can't really prepare for everything.

Your heart might be in the right place, but you clearly haven't actually learned about nuclear power.

I'm sure you've watched some YouTube videos tho, made by other people who don't understand nuclear power.
