167. I have posted the facts and the links and calling people "anti-nuke kiddes" (sic) is ad hominem
I guess "compelling" is so subjective that those who are blindly pronuke will find no fact compelling enough (unless they or their loved ones get sick from nuke plant emissions, as mine have)

I think the most compelling arguments are the fact that the German government is pissed at the lies and duplicity of this nuke corporation because they tried to diminish the actual damage or danger from the incidents inside the nuclear plants and in the reactors themselves.

The OP basically (and I am not the OP) links to an alert about an "event" which occurred in a nuke plant. It is an advisory; a warning that we shous observe and be aware, especially because we cannot trust the nuke industry or its proponents to tell the truth and so civilians and citizens need to keep each other alerted about such events at nuke plants (or "nuke events").

You can parse the language or mince words, but casting aspersions is unseemly.

Electrical failures inside nuke plants can lead to meltdowns and catastrophes.

Electrical failures of any other sort are highly unlikely to cause such a dangerous situation as a meltdown or release of radionucleides.
