  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Yes, it's called reality. I know it's an ugly thing that just doesn't go away no matter how hard you want it to.

Dude, thorium reactors will be ready any day now, along with mini reactors! Everything will be super cheap and all the waste will be reused and we won't be dependent on any fuel sources from Russia and all our problems will be gone!

/s, in case it's not obvious

Reality can be anything anyone says, you just gotta believe it really hard?

And then repeat the ~~lie~~ reality in service to the ones than benefit from it. Gooboi.
