Uncritically lumping Chernobyl in with TMI and fukushima loses you all credibility.

The nuclear industry is far and away the safest and most scrutinized of any industry, try to be honest when you’re making arguments.
The reason people don’t want to put nuclear facilities in convenient places is paranoia.
Complaining about Joshua trees for this is somewhat silly, it’s not one or the other, but the environmental impact is worth discussing.
Again fukushima had no radiation related health impacts to non workers. Not “millions of people”, the worst case for that plant happened, and still no radiation poisoning.
