Nuclear is actually promoted by old guard mining and energy oligarchs because it provides a centralised means of control.
The peoples needs can be met with 100% renewables and battery storage. The oligarchies needs can never be met, because they are a malignant cancerous parasite.
This is conspiracy level misinformation. You can't do 100% wind+solar with batteries, many countries have tried and failed. Germany and Denmark are great examples of highly industrialized nations with high population density that has tried to do what you're suggesting, and they've proven that it's a fantasy.
Base load is a myth.
Bullshit. Germany and Denmark's irresponsible energy policies are carried hard by their neighbors.
