more bs, study after study finds people buying organic foods have lower levels of contamination, fewer health problems and better overall health. Here we see the typical denial that sure better is better but I don't so it can't be really true. Even if there's some cross contamination \, so what? It's both the total exposure and the fact that by support organic farming, we're encouraging more of it.

We'd all be better off if not for the the irresponsible, fundamentalist naysayers living in and spouting denials.

keep trolling, thanks for proving my point

In truth, our governments are far too corrupt to be legitimate, clearly the Social Contract is broken, look at all the hungry, homeless and dysfunctional citizens, meanwhile the privileged upper class is getting more and more privileged. This is what classism looks like.

This is a political stunt and most likely just paving the way for Big Business Datacenters instead. Our classist authorities don't like currencies they don't control and regulate. No surprise there.

another person who's afraid of what they don't understand and would just misuse it anyways

pseudo-conservatism, real conservatives live conservatively

it's defund authoritarianism and refund our social safety net

which is exactly how 'our' authorities skew the stats so they look better while doing worse, welcome to authoritarianism

it's all a classist whitewash

I live in Canada and we see the same thing going on here. I suspect it's everywhere. Classism breeds corruption which produces incompetence.

Way too many privileged people just think paying for an education is the same as earning one. Meanwhile, schools are watering down course difficulty in order to accommodate privilege and maximize profit, this is classism in our classrooms. Not to even mention how corrupt academia has become.

once again, our greed is wrecking everything for everybody

Wow, the degree of denial from the pseudo-conservatives is simply astonishing. I guess this is proof positive that all the education in the world cannot fix stupidity and self-justification.

It's too late to put the cat back in the bag, we allowed our greed and irresponsibility to wreck everything for everybody. Now we have no choice but to deal with the consequences which will be desperately avoided by the wealthy and cost the poor the most. Everyone will suffer. Our greed is our downfall. What's amazing is all the ongoing denial, it's simply astonishing how stupid greedy people can really be.

When the business model is to buy politicians in order to corrupt and pervert livery laws, that's evil, Uber and the other slave corporations should never have been allowed, but this is what happens in a corrupt and classist economy. Freedom is done, we're all either wage slaves or privileged these days, welcome to have and have nots. We sold ourselves out, and this is exactly what greed does to stupid people.

We're all wage slaves thanks to classism, don't let this pseudo-conservative racist headline fool you, slavery is doing very well, and not just in Canada. Show me one transnational corporation or one upper class person that isn't shady and actually down right entitled and exploitative, here's the big lie folks, it's just the immigrants faults, which is just overt racism.

It's all wage slavery, we pay while the rich play.

Your statement is partisan pseudo-conservative propaganda. By the way, your reasoning is as wrong as your spelling. You clearly need to think about what you're saying and how you say it. The idea that “the left deliberately conflated nuclear power and nuclear weapons” and that groups like CND were “anti-science” is revisionist nonsense. The connection between civil and military nuclear programs wasn’t invented by activists, it was real and it's well documented.

In the 1950s and ’60s, so-called “civilian” reactors like Britain’s Calder Hall were built to produce both electricity and weapons-grade plutonium. France’s early reactors did the same, and even standard light-water reactors generate plutonium isotopes as a by-product of fission. The overlap between nuclear power and weapons production was technical fact, not political spin. That’s why the IAEA was created—to stop materials from “peaceful” programs being diverted into bombs.

By the 1980s, the case against nuclear power had only grown stronger. Three Mile Island (1979) and Chernobyl (1986) proved that reactor failures could devastate entire regions. Radioactive leaks at Windscale, Sellafield, and Hanford showed that “peaceful atoms” left long-term contamination. And decades later, no country had a working permanent waste repository, a problem that still isn’t fully solved today.

Calling the movement “anti-science” is absurd when many of its leaders were scientists: Amory Lovins, Barry Commoner, and the Union of Concerned Scientists, to name just a few. Their arguments were based on physics, risk assessment, and environmental data, not partisan ideology.

Critics of nuclear power weren’t ignorant. They were right to demand accountability from secretive state-run programs built on military technology, catastrophic potential, and unsolved waste problems. Opposing nuclear power wasn’t anti-science. It was science with ethics.

Nuclear power isn't the answer since it obviously just adds to the net heat produced on the planet. Think about it, more energy, more heat, more global warming. Not to mention the problem with nuclear accidents, the problems with nuclear waste and the problem with how corrupt Big Energy is. All this talk about nuclear power is people falling for classist corporate propaganda without often even realizing it. Nuclear power is a problem not a solution.

We need renewable energy sources that rely on the existing energy influx from the sun so we don't add to the net gain of energy the biosphere receives. It's a balance, we can't upset the balance without consequences for doing so. We also need to decentralise and reclaim our electrical grids and become more energy self-reliant and self-sufficient. Energy conservation and better buildings with passive solar designs and active solar panels, heat pumps and heat exchangers and battery walls, etc.

Greedy people make irresponsible decisions. Honestly, we're screwed because people are not ethical nor responsible enough. So many people are either ignorant of the facts or in denial about them; even after all these years. We are obviously done as a civilization and the sure signs of decline are all around us.
