Why not is the environmental (Communist) movement, IMO.

They have managed to turn Nuclear Power into a boogeyman, and they deliberately lump Thorium reactors into that mix.

If they were really environmentalists (they aren’t-they are Leftist ideologues, watermelons some call them...green on the outside, and red on the inside) they would be clamoring for this.

Marxists some time ago realized they would never have a Marxist revolution in this country (or other parts of the world) because Marxism revolution doesn’t fly with a large and prosperous middle class.

So they have two concurrent Marxism-based endeavors underway:

One is to replace Marxist “Class” with race. And that is achieving some success.

The other is to replace Marxist “Class” with environmentalism. I think they are having more success.

The point is, the decision to NOT promote, explore, and develop energy technology based on Thorium is in no way based on the environmental impact, danger to society, cost, or even technology limitations.

It is based on the sheep who stand on their legs bleating, as Orwell’s sheep in “Animal Farm” had done, “Solar and Wind Good, Nuclear Bad!” over and over again.

Just as Old Major, Snowball, Napoleon, and Squealer wanted them to do in “Animal Farm” for their own purposes, not what was best for the animals or the farm.

Thanks for your thoughts on the matter.
As I suspected, it’s more about politics and ideology than technology or practical reasons.
