The actual nuclear specialists are coming out of the woodwork to say that
no, it would not be a marvel-movie-style explosion. Yes, it's bad — fuel
could leak. But let's not retweet gov't pronouncements uncritically. It's a
different kind of reactor than Chernobyl.
I'm not going to chide people for being overly dramatic. Everyone is
understandably freaked out and upset. But let's keep our heads. The
real-life situation is bad enough — focus on the fact that Russian troops
are committing blatant war crimes by shelling Ukr cities.
since these tweets took off, in case it is necessary to clarify: YES IT IS
VERY BAD AND VERY DANGEROUS THAT THE RUSSIANS ARE DOING THIS AND NO ONE IS
DENYING THAT. My tweets were in the response to the "10x Chernobyl" claims.
Dude. It’s bad. Nuclear plants dont explode but they do extraordinary
damage and if you were living near to that plant you would be terrified and
hoping someone would do something.
