How China and Russia TOOK OVER Nuclear Energy | Official Preview

Nuclear energy represents the safest and most efficient form of power generation, yet its progress in the West is stifled by regulatory hurdles and negative public perception. Isaiah Taylor argues that while oil and gas were essential for civilizational development, nuclear power offers a superior alternative with the fewest deaths per unit of energy and zero carbon emissions. The complexity of nuclear energy lies not in the mechanical design of reactors—which are described as simpler than diesel engines—but in the land-use permissions managed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Since 1979, the NRC has approved only four construction permits, whereas China is currently building 30 reactors. This stagnation is attributed to historical "psyops" and the funding of anti-nuclear environmental groups by foreign interests like Russia to maintain energy dependencies. Ultimately, energy is existential, and the transition to nuclear is presented as a necessary trade-off for civilizational survival and public health.
